Trial results Effect of NovaTec® on yield of fruits and vegetables During the past twenty years many trials have been conducted on agricultural and horticultural crops to evalutate the benefit of NovaTec®. In fruits and vegetable trials with crops like salads, cauliflower, cabbage, onions, apple, peach, citrus, potatoes, grapes, etc.. NovaTec® showed an increase of marketable yield, often combined with reduced nitrate level in the biomass. NovaTec® improves the Nitrogen Use Efficiency (NUE): Use Less and achieve more! Stabilized fertilizers in cauliflower without N N target value (kg/ha): There...

Growth of lettuce when fertilized with NovaTec® ■■ Compact growth. ■■ Better storability and shelf life. Application in potatoes Standard before / after planting Stages of development after BBCH NovaTec®: ensures the N supply, even when applying in early growth stages. NovaTec®: nitrate supply on demand NO3-N in the soil [kg/ha] traditional fertilizer 120 NovaTec® controls the transformation of ammonium to nitrate. The stabilizing effect is diminished under hot weather conditions. Nitrate is supplied in accordance to plant demand.

NovaTec®: Complex NPK-fertilizer with nitrification inhibitor DMPP (3.4-dimethylpyrazolphoshate). Reduces N-leaching and increases N-efficiency. During the active phase of DMPP (4 to 10 weeks, depending on soil temperature and soil humidity) the transformation of ammonium to nitrate is delayed. As a result N-availability is further adapted to the plants requirements and N-efficiency is increased. Fertilizer based on SOP, for usage in chloride sensitive crops and on salt-affected soils.
