PeKacid™, the brand new Fully-Soluble Acidic Fertilizer from Rotem Amfert

Rotem Amfert, a subsidiary of the Israeli Group ICL Fertilizers has just launched the production of PeKacid™ (0-60-20 solid mono crystal), a highly acidic (pH = 2.2), fully-soluble PK fertilizer formulated for fertigation applications for calcareous soils and/or high bicarbonate content irrigation waters. An “acid in the bag" product, PeKacid™ is aimed at replacing the conventional application of technical and agricultural-grade phosphoric acid, resulting in an easier, safer and more effective fertilization process.

PeKacid™ is intended for soil-less as well as open-field horticulture fertigation applications, and is well-suited for use in blends of fully-soluble fertilizers as a tool for incorporating calcium, magnesium and micronutrients into the mixed fertilizers. Due to its acidic nature, PeKacid™ has an anticlogging action and enhances nutrients’ uptake.

The fruit of intensive in-house development and technology, the patent-protected PeKacid™ is the third high-technology fertilizer to be developed and produced by NovaPeaK, the Specialty Fertilizers segment of ICL Fertilizers. NovaPeaK’s first soluble fertilizer was MKP (PeaK), which it pioneered in the early 90’s, followed by the 2005 launch of its fully soluble MAP (NovaMAP™) fertilizer. With PeKacid™, NovaPeaK is now strengthening its position in the Soluble Phosphate fertilizers sector.
