NUTRIFERT AUS OZCALBORON 1 TON BAG 270824
OzcalBoron contains 2% of Boric Acid in every granule making the ideal product for those soils with inadequate Boron levels.
The ultra-fine particles in every granule of OzcalBoron results in high reactivity of the pure calcium carbonate. Therefore, greatly reduced rates are applied compared to Agricultural Lime.
This product provides an efficient treatment for soil pH adjustment and where Calcium & Boron deficiency symptoms exist.
Quick release upon contact with water for faster results.
The importance of neutralising value and particle size
Neutralising Value (NV) is an indicator of a Lime’s purity and its ability to neutralise acid in the soil.
The most accurate way to assess lime is to use effective neutralising value (ENV), which is a calculation that takes into account the particle size and the NV of a lime.
Agricultural Lime typically has an ENV of 40% to 80%.
OzcalBoron has a NV of 97% indicating high purity and ultra fine particles.
The smaller the particle size the more reactive the Lime is in the soil and the quicker acidity is neutralised.
Common Questions
What is OzcalBoron and what does it do?
OzcalBoron is a lime product that contains 2% Boric Acid in every granule. It's designed to treat soils with inadequate Boron levels and adjust soil pH. It also helps where Calcium & Boron deficiency symptoms exist. The ultra-fine particles make it highly reactive, so you need to apply greatly reduced rates compared to standard Agricultural Lime.
How quickly does OzcalBoron work?
OzcalBoron has quick release upon contact with water for faster results. The ultra-fine particle size makes it more reactive in the soil, which means acidity is neutralised more quickly than with standard limes.
What makes OzcalBoron different from regular agricultural lime?
OzcalBoron has a Neutralising Value (NV) of 97%, indicating high purity and ultra-fine particles. Standard Agricultural Lime typically has an ENV of 40% to 80%. The smaller particle size in OzcalBoron means it's more reactive in the soil and neutralises acidity faster, so you need to apply much lower rates than you would with regular lime.
What application rate should I use?
The application rate is shown on the product label and bag. For specific guidance on your soil type and deficiency, contact TGRM on (07) 5482 1692.
