Single element fertilizers

Biota Nitro 2021

Biota Nitro 2021 is a nitrogen fertiliser in organic form that feeds both the plant and the soil life. The nitrogen in Biota Nitro 2021 consists mainly of peptides and amino acids, substances that are essential for the growth of the plant. The amino acids in Biota Nitro are made from plant residue, which means they can be readily used by plants. Despite the high organic matter content, the solution is suitable for use in irrigation systems and drip lines. In addition, Biota Nitro is suitable for foliar fertilisation, for example when the plant experiences nitrogen deficiency.
