The functions of potassium in plant growth are numerous as potassium influences photosynthesis, respiration, translocation and many enzyme systems. Fertilization with potassium when soils are unable to supply sufficient amounts results in large yield responses. Reduced availability of potassium can lead to a reduction in plant growth and occasionally in crop quality .Response from potassium additions is first observed when the rate of regrowth is more rapid following a harvest. The rapid rate of regrowth allows the alfalfa to compete more aggressively against weeds and insects which results in longer stand life. Increased disease resistance may be another factor that can be attributed to potassium fertilization. Potassium is known to improve the level of carbohydrates stored in alfalfa roots. Greater stand persistence is the result of a combination of these factors.
Potassium fertilization increases the potassium content of alfalfa and affects the concentration of other elements. It has been observed in numerous cases that whenever a nutrient addition results in large alfalfa yield increases, many, if not all other element concentrations will be reduced. Research indicates that potassium additions tend to increase protein in only a few cases and a more general result is that protein content is decreased. Potassium additions generally reduce calcium, magnesium, sodium and occasionally some of the micronutrients. Experiments including higher rates of applied potassium show that potassium concentration continues to increase long after any yield increase is observed, clearly indicating "luxury consumption".

Potassium salt of humic acid. It is manufactured commercially by alkaline extraction of brown coal (lignite) Leonhardite to be used mainly as a soil conditioner. The extraction is performed in water with the addition of potassium hydroxide (KOH), sequestering agents and hydrotropic surfactants. Heat is used to increase the solubility of humic acids and hence more potassium humate can be extracted. Potassium humate granules by way of chemical extraction lose their hydrophobic properties and are now soluble. Depending on the source material product quality varies. High quality oxidized lignite (brown coal), usually referred to as leonhardite, is the best source material for extraction of large quantities of potassium humate. The less oxidized the coal the less potassium humate extracted. Used in agriculture as a fertilizer additive to increase the efficiency of fertilizers especially nitrogen and phosphorus based fertilizer inputs.

Calcium is a main constituent of the cell walls and membranes. When it is in short supply, cell division and the development of the growing point and root tips are affected. Calcium plays a key role in protecting the cell from toxins and in slowing the aging process. Adequate fruit calcium assists in longer storage life and helps stored fruit resist a range of breakdown conditions and rots including, internal breakdown, low temperature breakdown, water core, lenticel breakdown, as well as bitter pit. Boron is needed for the movement of sugars within the plant and in the formation of new cells in growing points of shoots and roots. It is also associated with some of the functions of calcium. Boron affects pollination and the development of viable seeds which in turn affects the normal development of fruit, particularly in grapes and strawberries. A shortage of boron also directly causes cracking and distorted growth in fruit. â?? Billa CalBor Calcium & Boron Complex is organically chelated with lignosulphonate that assists in the absorption of Calcium and Boron into the leaf of the plant in the most rapid and efficient manner. The Calcium & Boron Complex is a foliar liquid fertilizer developed by Agmin Chelates.

â??In N-P-K fertilizers, potassium (K) is the nutrient responsible for plants' metabolism. This makes it helpful in any garden, and it acts as support for the nutrients nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P). Specifically, potassium aids plants in retaining water, regulates plants' internal cation-anion balance -- meaning the positive and negative ions are in balance -- and aids protein synthesis to energize plants for healthy growth. Phosphorus is involved in the metabolic processes responsible for transferring energy from one point to another in the plant. It's also critical in root development and flowering. Because phosphorus moves slowly through the soil, it's important to work it into the soil, where it's needed by the roots. Potassium helps regulate plant metabolism and affects water pressure regulation inside and outside of plant cells. It is important for good root development. For these reasons, potassium is critical to plant stress tolerance. The effect of various P and K fertilizer application methods (broadcast, deep banding, 2x2 starter and foliar) on soybean yields has been evaluated in university research trials. Broadcast applications have performed equal to or better than the other application methods when soil test levels are above the critical levels. When P and K soil test levels are below the critical levels, band applications are more efficient than broadcast applications Product name : Billa Pho Power Chemical Properties : 1-Potassium (K2o):50%w/v 2-Phosphorus (P):40%w/v Physical Properties Form : Liquid Solubility Fully Water Soluble : Fully Water Soluble PH (1g /100ml ): 8-8.5 TDS 10 g / L: 980 ppm Color: Â Yellow Package: plastic bottle â??

â??Micronutrients are elements which are essential for plant growth, but are required in much smaller amounts than those of the primary nutrients; nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. The micronutrients are boron (B),copper (Cu), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), molybdenum (Mo), zinc (Zn), and chloride (Cl). While chloride is a micronutrient, deficiencies rarely occur in nature, so discussions on supplying micronutrient fertilizers are confined to the other six micronutrients. Deficiencies of micronutrients have been increasing in some crops. Some reasons are higher crop yields which increase plant nutrient demands, use of high analyses NPK fertilizers containing lower quantities of micronutrient contaminants, and decreased use of farmyard manure on many agricultural soils. Micronutrient deficiencies have been verified in many soils through increased use of soil testing and plant analyses. The most common method of micronutrient application for crops is soil application. Recommended application rates usually are less than 10 lb./acre (on an elemental basis), so uniform application of micronutrient sources separately in the field is difficult. Therefore, both granular and fluid NPK fertilizers are commonly used as carriers of micronutrients. Including micronutrients with mixed fertilizers is a convenient method of application and allows more uniform distribution with conventional application equipment. Costs also are reduced by eliminating a separate application.
