NPK 17-17-17 — High-Analysis Balanced Nutrition
Stepping up from 16-16-16, the 17-17-17 formula delivers 51% total nutrients in a still-balanced ratio favoured by greenhouse producers and high-yield cereal programmes in Eastern Europe. Each granule carries equal N, P and K — simplifying application planning on mixed farms running wheat, sunflower and vegetable rotations. From 1,000 MT.

Crop Fit
Greenhouse tomato and pepper growers use 17-17-17 as a base dressing at 300–500 kg/ha before bed formation. Field crop farmers apply 250–350 kg/ha pre-plant with supplemental nitrogen top-dress at heading. Available bulk or bagged.
FAQ
Is 17-17-17 suitable for chloride-sensitive crops?
Standard 17-17-17 uses MOP as the potassium source and contains chloride. For potato, tobacco or avocado, specify chloride-free SOP-based production at order stage.
What soil pH range suits 17-17-17 application?
Optimal on pH 5.5–7.0. On alkaline soils above 7.5, phosphorus availability from the granule decreases — consider band placement or acidifying irrigation water in drip systems.
Can 17-17-17 replace straight fertilizer programmes?
On moderate fertility soils, a single 300 kg/ha application covers baseline NPK needs for cereals. High-yield targets above 8 t/ha wheat still require additional nitrogen top-dress.
