Petra FMC

FMC Petra is an advanced liquid biosolution and specialized crop nutrition package formulated with Nitrogen (7%) + Phosphorus (21%) + Organic Matter (along with active Zinc components). Powered by proprietary Reacted Carbon Technology (RCT), it is specifically engineered to combat "phosphorus fixation" in the soil—preventing applied phosphorus from getting locked up or tied down by calcium, iron, or aluminum. This keeps nutrients mobile and readily accessible for plant roots.

Key Features & Benefits

• Stops Nutrient Lock-Up: Reacted carbon shields phosphorus ions, ensuring high nutrient use efficiency (NUE).

• Massive Root Development: The unique N-P-Zn synergy drives rapid vertical root growth and expansion, helping plants pull moisture from deeper soil layers.

• Soil Health & Buffering: Alleviates soil salinity stress, buffers high soil pH, and boosts beneficial microbial activity in the root zone.

• Enhanced Vigor: Promotes robust vegetative growth, uniform early flowering, and better resistance to transplant shock.

Application Across All Crops

FMC Petra is completely universal and safe for optimization across a wide spectrum of agriculture:

• Commercial / Field Crops: Cotton, Paddy, Maize, Wheat, Soybean, and Sugarcane.

• Vegetable Crops: Tomato, Chilli, Brinjal, Potato, Okra, and cucurbits.

• Fruits & Horticultural Crops: Grapes, Pomegranate, Banana, Citrus, and mango orchards.

General Dosage Guidelines

• Soil / Drenching Application: 2 to 4 Litres per acre (ideal for early root establishment and field crops).

• Drip Irrigation: 1 to 2 Litres per acre.

• Foliar Spray Application (to correct rapid deficiencies): 1 to 2 Litres per acre (roughly 2 to 3 ml per litre of clean water).

Good Time to Apply

• Timing: Best applied during early crop establishment, vegetative growth stages, or right before pre-flowering to give plants an energy boost. It is also highly effective immediately after transplanting to eliminate shock.

• Weather Conditions: If applying as a foliar spray, target the cool hours of the early morning or late afternoon. For soil or drip application, ensure the soil profile is moist to allow the carbon technology to seamlessly integrate into the root zone.

Safety Precautions

1. Compatibility Check: While Petra acts as a helpful pH buffer (typically ranging between 5.2 and 7.2), always perform a small jar test before tank-mixing it with other agrochemicals or fertilizers.

2. Personal Protection: Wear standard farm safety gear—such as rubber gloves, protective clothing, and eye protection—while handling and mixing the concentrate.

3. Storage Instructions: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Protect the liquid solution from freezing temperatures (store above 5°C) to avoid crystallization. Keep away from children and livestock.
