- Bavaria 12-8-40+TE is a high-quality German foliar fertilizer balanced in macronutrient ratios (12% nitrogen, 8% phosphorus, 40% potassium) and rich in EDTA-chelated micronutrients such as iron, zinc, manganese, and copper. It is used during critical stages of plant growth, such as flowering, fruit set, and fruit formation, to improve crop quality and increase yield. It helps increase flower number and fruit set, stimulate fruit filling, and raise sugar and solids content, making them firmer, shinier, and more flavorful. It also enhances plant resistance to heat and salinity stress and increases nutrient absorption efficiency, which positively impacts yield and quality.
Product Features:
- It contains a high percentage of potassium to improve fruit fullness and increase firmness and shine.
- It increases the sugar and solids content of the fruits and improves the taste and marketing quality.
- Rich in EDTA-chelated trace elements to ensure rapid absorption and high effectiveness.
- Promotes flower setting and reduces flower drop at critical stages.
- Increases plant resistance to environmental stresses such as heat and salinity.
- It is completely soluble in water, making it suitable for all irrigation and foliar spray systems.
- Improves nutrient absorption within the plant and increases fertilization efficiency.
