AgrOlivo was
born in 2003 in response to the request to set up a new organic fertilizer
specifically made for olive trees, with the addition of high quality and
organic raw material in order to enhance the content in Potassium and Boron, a
microelement essential for crops.
The
following raw materials have been added to AgrOlivo:
crude
potassium salt (mining Potassium Sulphate) and sodium borate with the result of
increasing water-soluble potassium (K2O) by 5% and boron (B) by 0.4%.
The
presence of a quantity of potassium, considered too low by some business
operators, steams from the following arguments by the technicians working for
BIOS: the used sulfate potassium is quickly assimilable thanks also to the association of the
totally organic nitrogen, therefore it is deemed the correct quantity for the
period of application of the fertilizer (autumn / winter).
Eventually
another portion of potassium, if necessary to the crops, must be integrated
before the ripening of the fruits.
AgrOlivo,
has
distinguished itself in different area with several soil types and also
different weather conditions, thanks to its great nutritional elements. It’s
rich in organic substance, organic nitrogen derived from noble proteins and
then rich in amino acids (free from proteins originating from tannery residues
and therefore from heavy metals) like phosphorus, slow-acting calcium obtained
from an organic substance and then totally soaked up with no release of
limestone.
