calicorp

 

DESCRIPTION 

Calicorp is a highly concentrated liquid Calcium solution enhanced with Nitrogen, Magnesium and a complete suite of EDTA micronutrients. Calicorp improves the quality and profitability of your harvest through increased bulk density, skin quality and enhanced self-life. The included micronutrients improve fertiliser use efficiency which enables optimum functioning of plant systems, and this also contributes to better harvest quality.

As a result of the low mobility of Calcium inside the crop, Calicorp is recommended as a regular foliar application particularly in horticultural and perennial crops, where it help to reduces common disorders such as: Blossom End Rot (BER), Tip Burn, Bitter Pit, Cavity Spot, Soft Nose, cracking etc. Calicorp is suitable for use in all crops, particularly from fruit set until fruit swell is complete, where the synergistic effect of the Calcium, Nitrogen and other nutrients promote fruit fill and development. Calicorp is also very suited to fertigation.

MAIN BENEFITS

• High quality, concentrated, 100% soluble Calcium
• Enhances fruit quality, shelf life and thus profitability
• Enhanced with Nitrogen, Magnesium and 6 essential micronutrients
• Gentle formulation, with lower scorch risk than Calcium salts

DOSAGE AND METHOD OF USE

Foliar application

General Dosage - Flowering Vegetables: 3 – 5 L /ha, 3 - 5 applications, 7 - 14 day intervals, from petal fall until harvest. In continuous flowering crops such as tomato and      chili continue to apply every 14 days.

General Dosage - Leafy Vegetables: 3 - 4 L /ha, 2 - 5 applications, 7 - 10 day intervals, from 2 weeks post transplanting and finishing 10 days before harvest.

General Dosage - Cereals: 2 – 5 L /ha, 2 - 3 applications, at first node (BBCH 31), flag leaf emergence (BBCH 37) and ear emergence (BBCH 55), or V12 and tasselling       (VT) in maize.

General Dosage - Potatoes & Tubers: 4 – 6 L /ha, 2 - 4 applications, 10 day intervals, from start of tuber bulking, or 10 leaf stage in onion and carrot. General Dosage - Orchards & Vines: 4 – 6 L /ha, 3 - 5 applications, 14 day intervals, from fruit set.

General Dosage - Ornamentals: 1 - 2 L /ha, 2 - 4 applications, 10 - 14 day intervals, from mid vegetative stage.

Spray onto dry foliage using a minimum of 150-200 L /ha to ensure optimum coverage of the leaf and foresee 3 - 4 hours without rain for optimal penetration.

Fertigation

General Dosage: 6 - 12 L /ha, 3 - 8 applications, 10 - 14 day intervals, from petal fall until harvest.
