Fertilizer designed for the needs of your maize crop.

The performance and yield of a maize crop is directly related to the climate and soil. It is strongly advised that the soil is tested, in order to determine the nutrient requirements and the correct application thereof. For optimal yield, it is essential that the maize plant grow rapidly once the germination is complete. In order for rapid growth to take place the required amount of nutrients need to be available. Maize needs the following nutrients for effective growth and crop yield:

• Nitrogen: Nitrogen is the most important nutrient and role player in the growth, yield and quality of maize crops. Nitrogen fertilizer is essential to promote good leaf growth. Smaller leaves result in reduced photosynthesis, a process required for starch storage in the grain. A Nitrogen deficiency thus results in poorer quality grains and a decrease in total yield.
• Phosphorus: Phosphorus is essential for root development and growth of the maize plant, as it directly affects the growth tips of the plant. If a Phosphorus deficiency occurs at an early stage, it can affect plant growth throughout the plant life, resulting in smaller plants and less crop yield.
• Potassium: Maize plants require great amounts of potassium, especially during maximum periods of growth. It is thus essential that the soil contain adequate levels of Potassium as required, for optimal growth of the Maize plants. Potassium fulfils a number of roles in Maize plants including regulating the water content (beneficial in periods of draught), the transportation of sugar from the leaves and maintaining the plant rigidity.
