Silicon Fertilizer

Potassium Silicate Powder (Potassium Salt of Silicic acid) is a source of highly soluble potassium and silicon ions. It is used in agriculture. Potassium Silicate Powder forms is easily available to the plant via irrigation or foliar application. It contains a unique blend of silicate with humate to ensure optimum bioavailability and benefit to the plant.
Silicon is also essential micronutrients for plant health. Silicon helps to make toughens the cell wall for stronger stalks and stems; increased sugar content; reduced heat and drought stress; increased resistance to penetration by fungi, rusts mildews and aphids. Potassium Silicate Powder is more effective in organic fertilizers. It is slow release Potassium fertilizer. Its deficiencies are major Silicon consuming plain like rice and sugarcane. However, such deficiencies are rare except in cases of silica – accumulating crops and highly weathered soils typical of tropical regions. There are numerous studies on the use of silica amendments to control disease mechanically (when applied as foliar spray) and physiologically (when used a fertilizer). Numerous silica and non-silica based alternatives exist, although they may be less effective than Potassium Silicate Powder.
