Super NK Ecolong 203
Basic Product Information
Supply of nutrients matched to crop growth! Coated Fertilizers
Long" and "Ecolong" are coated fertilizers that adjust the leaching of fertilizer components according to the growth of the crop. ECOLONG" and "ECOLONG" are granular nitrate compound fertilizers (such as phosphorus nitrate potassium, NK compound, nitrate lime, etc.) coated with a specially processed membrane made mainly of polyolefin resin and inorganic minerals. In addition, the film of ECOLONG has photodisintegrability and microbial degradability.
The mechanism of leaching of fertilizer components and their leaching characteristics with respect to temperature are similar to those of urea-coated "LP Coat" and "M Coat," and are largely unaffected by soil pH and soil moisture.
Contains nitrate-form nitrogen that works well for general field crops. The fertilizing effect is sustained, allowing cultivation using only basal fertilizer. Local application of fertilizer increases the efficiency of fertilizer use and makes it possible to reduce the amount of fertilizer used.
There are two types of leaching type: linear type (linear leaching begins immediately after fertilizer application) and sigmoid type (Super (Eco) Long, Super NK (Eco) Long), in which leaching begins after initial leaching is suppressed for a certain period of time. The number of days in which 80% of nitrogen is leached in soil at 25°C is used for the name. The brand name can be selected to match many applications for field crops by differences in fertilizer components (chisso, phosphorusan, and potash), number of days of elution, and elution type.

Features
Super NK ECOLONG is coated with a new film that combines a special resin that exhibits biodegradability with a technology that promotes photodegradation by natural light.
In the ground, Super NK ECOLONG's film is biodegraded by microorganisms to micro fragments, which are then digested by the microorganisms. Since Super NK ECOLONG is designed not to undergo rapid microbial degradation, there is no risk of fertilizer burns.
On the soil surface, Super NK ECOLONG's film undergoes photodegradation under natural light, resulting in fragmentation and low molecular weight. Photodegradation is designed to have an induction period, so that fertilizer components do not leach out rapidly even when applied to the soil surface. The low molecular weight film that undergoes photolysis undergoes biodegradation.
