Seasonal Application
Apply 10-26-26 at 250–400 kg/ha after sugar beet canopy closure to support root sugar accumulation. In orchards, post-harvest application replenishes P and K removed with the crop without triggering late flush susceptible to frost damage.
FAQ
Why use 10-26-26 instead of straight MOP and TSP?
The compound granule ensures uniform P and K distribution at each application point. Separate spreading of MOP and TSP creates uneven nutrient patches affecting crop uniformity in precision-quality programmes.
Is 10-26-26 suitable for spring application?
Primarily an autumn/winter product. For spring use, higher-nitrogen NPK grades (20-10-10 or 16-16-16) better match crop demand during active vegetative growth.
Can 10-26-26 be used on grapevines post-harvest?
Yes. Post-harvest 10-26-26 at 150–200 kg/ha replenishes P and K reserves in perennial wood without stimulating new shoot growth that would reduce winter hardiness.
