Product overview

NPK 10-26-26 is a PK-dominant compound granule delivering 62% total nutrients with only 10% nitrogen — engineered for crop phases where phosphorus and potassium drive yield quality while excess late-season N risks lodging, frost damage or vegetative flush in perennials. The near-equal 26:26 P2O5:K2O ratio supports root sugar accumulation in sugar beet, tuber sizing in potato and reserve replenishment in fruit orchards after harvest.

Compound granulation ensures each prill carries the full nutrient profile, eliminating the segregation and uneven spreading that occurs when distributors blend straight TSP and MOP at the farm gate. At 62% analysis the grade freight efficiently relative to lower-PK alternatives, reducing landed cost per unit of P and K delivered to inland buyers in Eastern Europe, Turkey and North Africa.

Production originates from integrated NPK lines at Black Sea and Central Asian complexes with ammonium phosphate and MOP-based granulation routes. Granules are hard, low-dust and sized 2–4 mm for conventional broadcast spreaders and pneumatic applicators. Export buyers include agro-traders supplying continental autumn programmes, potato cooperatives and perennial-crop estates in the Mediterranean basin.

Loading ports & logistics

Bulk NPK 10-26-26 ships as free-flowing granules suitable for grab discharge and belt-conveyor loading. Moisture control during vessel loading prevents caking in humid port conditions.

FOB from Black Sea terminals (Novorossiysk, Taman, Odessa region) and MENA bagging hubs. Standard parcel sizes: 1,000–3,000 MT on handysize bulkers, 3,000–6,000 MT on handymax, or 5,000–12,000 MT on panamax for long-haul destinations. Bagged option: 50 kg PP woven bags or 1,000 kg FIBC from 500 MT minimum.

CFR/CIF to Mediterranean (Alexandria, Mersin, Casablanca), South Asia (Nhava Sheva, Chittagong) and East Africa (Mombasa, Dar es Salaam) with discharge at bulk fertiliser terminals equipped for NPK handling.

Typical lead time 14–30 days from contract confirmation to loading window, subject to granulation line schedule and vessel lineup at origin port.

Packaging & documentation

Bulk: vessel hold loading with trimmed and levelled cargo surface. Bagged: 50 kg PE-lined PP woven bags palletised and stretch-wrapped, or 1,000 kg FIBC with UV-stabilised outer shell for tropical storage.

Each shipment includes mill certificate of analysis (COA), commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading and certificate of origin. Phytosanitary certificate where required by destination customs. Third-party inspection at loading (SGS, Bureau Veritas, Cotecna) available for LC-backed or first-time buyer contracts.

FAQ

Why apply NPK 10-26-26 instead of separate MOP and TSP?

Each compound granule delivers the same P:K ratio at every spread point. Blending straight MOP and TSP on the field creates nutrient patches that reduce crop uniformity in quality-driven programmes.

Is 10-26-26 suitable for spring cereal top-dress?

It is primarily an autumn and post-harvest grade. Spring cereals in active vegetative growth need higher nitrogen — grades such as 20-10-10 or 16-16-16 better match in-season N demand.

Which perennial crops benefit from post-harvest 10-26-26?

Grapevines, pome and stone fruit orchards use 150–200 kg/ha after harvest to restore P and K in wood reserves without triggering late shoot flush that compromises winter hardiness.
