Nano Fertilizer

Nano fertilizers: Less is more

Discover the patented technology and it’s unique benefits.

Nanoparticle

Small particle of less than 100 nm. 1 nm = 1 billionth of a meter.

Nano fertilizer

Modified form of a conventional fertilizer within the nano-range. Improve your soil fertility and the quality and productivity of agricultural goods.

Unique properties Nano fertilizers

• Higher surface area
• Better uptake of nutrients
• More bioavailability
• Very small amounts of fertilizer material to cover a large area

What are Nano fertilizers?

Nano fertilizers are nanoparticles containing nutrients and trace elements that are vital to strong, resilient plants with high yields.

This modified form of fertilizer is only the size of a nanoparticle and aims to improve soil fertility and increase the quality and yield of agricultural crops. Due to its reduced size, the fertilizer particles allow more opportunity of contact per unit area which results in better penetration into the plant and absorption of nutrients. This sustainable technology is based on five colloidal trace elements: Copper, Iron, Calcium, Silver and Boron.

We supply the following Nano fertilizers:

• AgroArgentum Forte
• AgroArgentum Bor
• AgroCyprum
• AgroFerrum
• AgroCalcium

AgroArgentum® Forte is a NK 9-6 EC Fertilizers that is naturally reinforced with 1% silver Nanoparticles

AgroArgentum® Bor is a 2% boron fertilizer suspension that is reinforced with 1% silver Nanoparticles

AgroArgentum is the best root stimulator and promotes flower formation: maximum development of roots with better quality, length and thickness. More flowers, and consequently more fruits, bigger and with better quality. Depending on your crop and cultivation we advise either AgroArgentum Forte or ArgoArgentum Bor  in the program. Both contain 1% silver that keep the plant with an active metabolism.

AgroCyprum® is a copper EC fertilizer solution with the optimized concentration of all its ingredients. It contains 3% copper nanoparticles that thanks to the reduced size of its component, is more bioavailable for the plants.​ It provides the plant with the precise amount of copper and helps with copper Chlorsis, giving the plant a healthy green foliage.

AgroFerrum® is an iron EC fertilizer which contains 15% Fe Nano particles, providing the plants with the precise amount of iron. It prevents iron deficiency that looks like chlorosis, giving them a healthy green foliage.

AgroCalcium® is a calcium EC fertilizer solution with the optimized concentration of all its ingredients. ​It contains 20% calcium, 1,5% magnesium and 1,5% silicon, made from microfine ground rock flour that thanks to the reduced size of its component, is more bioavailable for the plants.

What combination of nano fertilizer with trace elements should you use?

For each crop and cultivation we have developed different protocols on which mixture to use and how to apply. It can be sprayed or dripped with your water. The right combination of these products leads to the perfect synergy, and reduction of phytosanitary products. This way of fertilizing demands a small dosage and leaves less residues. It’s the perfect way to save on product and transport, making it a more sustainable way of using fertilizers. All whilst supporting your crops in the best possible way and making the better choice for the environment.

Exclusive nano fertilizer distributor for B+H Solutions

Hortus is proud to be the exclusive distributor for B+H Solutions in various countries in East Africa, North-America and Asia. The German company has developed and refined their nano fertilizer technology for over 10 years, to provide high quality products for agriculture. Their sustainable farming concept is patented with European patent no. EP 3205637.

Metal-based nano fertilizer with trace elements

The B+H Solutions nano fertilizer in our assortment are metal-based nano fertilizers that posses trace elements such as Copper (Cu), Silver (Ag), Iron (Fe), Boron (B) and Calcim (Ca). The metallic elements are one of the key properties of these nano fertilizers: Once penetrated in the plants the fertilizer and trace elements are active for a much longer time, in comparison to water soluble products such as salts or chelates.

The most important parts of the nano particles are the IONS, that are produced permanently and in very high amounts when humidity is present. The IONS do most of the work in the plants.

Positive test results in horticulture and agriculture

We have tested the nano fertilizers numerous times, over longer periods of time. We see positive results in different crops, although results are different depending on crop and variety. The most important results in different horticulture and agriculture applications are:

• More stems
• Longer stems
• Larger fruits
• More cuttings and shorter sprouts
• Cuttings remain of better quality during transport
• Higher weight in vegetables
• More resistance to threats
