NACHURS Liqui-Cal
(8-0-0-8Ca)
NACHURS Liqui-Cal provides crops with readily available nitrogen and calcium. Use of a sound liming program will enhance the performance of NACHURS Liqui-Cal. As a Soil applied product NACHURS Liqui-Cal can stabilize the soil pH and aid in the transport of nutrients into the plant.
Application can be combined with pre-emergent herbicides or combined with UAN applications. Rates are dependent on the calcium characteristics of your soil therefore consult with a NACHURS retailer or NACHURS District Sales Manager for specific recommendations.
NACHURS Liqui-Cal can also be used as a foliar spray to correct calcium deficiencies and increase the plant available calcium. A sufficient supply of calcium in the leaves helps plant leaves control heat stress and control infection of plant diseases.
The Role of Calcium
- Key to cell wall structure
- Instrumental in cell division and elongation
- Enzyme activity
- Regulation of nutrient flow in the roots and in plant cells
- Regulation of leaf stomata which aids in reducing heat stress
- Instrumental in limiting plant disease infections
- Influences fruit ripening
- Increases self-life of many vegetable crops
- Increases nitrogen use efficiency of urea by reducing ammonia losses
