Liquid fertiliser for Olive trees NPK 5-5-7 with trace elements, 0.5L

The Olive Liquid Fertiliser NPK 5-5-7 with trace elements is a mineral fertiliser that meets the nutritional needs of all varieties of olive trees and other Mediterranean plants grown in open ground or in containers. It promotes growth and prevents and corrects deficiencies while feeding the soil without unbalancing or polluting it when used properly and at the recommended doses. Packaged in a 0.5L container, it makes 125 litres of nutrient solution.

This mineral fertiliser, which comes in a concentrated solution to be diluted in irrigation water, is perfectly suited to the needs of olive trees. It does not come from organic matter derived from living organisms but from inert mineral matter such as certain rocks. Its formulation is NPK 5-5-7 with trace elements. This means that it is composed of:

• 5% Nitrogen (N): this element contributes to the development of non-reproductive aerial parts of the plant, especially leaves and stems.
• 5% Phosphorus (P), which strengthens plant resistance and contributes to root development.
• 7% Potassium (K): essential for good harvests, it contributes to promoting flowering and fruit development.

• Water-soluble trace elements: 0.013% Boron (B), 0.003% Copper (Cu) chelated by EDTA, 0.021% Iron (Fe) chelated by EDTA, 0.011% Manganese (Mn) chelated by EDTA, 0.001% Molybdenum (Mo), 0.006% Zinc (Zn) chelated by EDTA.

Uses: from March to September.

Dosage: 1 capful or 20 ml/ 5L of water

To live and multiply, plants need water, about twenty essential nutrients that they find in mineral form in the soil, carbon dioxide (CO₂) present in the air, and solar energy essential for photosynthesis. The basic elements, called macronutrients, are nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K). They must be present in the soil in significant quantities. The secondary elements, less important in terms of quantity but still essential, are calcium (Ca), sulfur (S), and magnesium (Mg). Finally, trace elements, necessary in very small quantities, include iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), molybdenum (Mo), copper (Cu), boron (B), zinc (Zn), chlorine (Cl), sodium (Na), cobalt (Co), vanadium (V), and silicon (Si). The role of fertiliser is to compensate for soil deficiencies and provide, through optimal dosage, the elements that promote plant growth, flowering and fruit production, or root, bulb, and tuber development.
