Coconut is a long-term crop grown very often on the worst soil available — sandy, coastal, low in organic matter and with almost no capacity to hold nutrients between rainfall events.
Potassium demand is high and continuous, and chloride plays an unusually important role for this crop. On sandy ground, the limiting factor is rarely how much you apply; it is how much stays in the root zone long enough to be used.
Kelapa adalah tanaman jangka panjang yang sering ditanam di tanah berpasir pantai yang rendah bahan organik dan lemah menyimpan nutrien.
Keperluan kalium adalah tinggi dan berterusan. Asid humik dan fulvik dalam NEXGROW meningkatkan kapasiti pertukaran kation supaya lebih banyak nutrien kekal di zon akar.
Sandy soils have minimal cation exchange capacity. Applied nutrient can pass below the root zone within a few heavy rainfall events.
Coastal soils typically start low in organic matter and stay that way without deliberate input, leaving little biological activity to cycle nutrients.
Because coconut keeps bearing under poor management, decline is slow and easy to miss until yield per palm has fallen substantially.
Built to work alongside your existing fertiliser programme, not replace it outright.
Directly targets the core problem: over 50% organic matter and more than 20% humic and fulvic acid raise the soil’s ability to hold nutrients, while phosphate-solubilising bacteria improve phosphorus availability.
