How it Works
About Soluphos® SP
Bacteria contained in Soluphos® SP can increase phosphorus availability in soil. Soluphos® SP is a Soluble Powder. It’s a microbial inoculant containing microbial food and highly efficient phosphorus solubilizing bacteria, Bacilius licheniformis and Pseudomonas putida.
While phosphorus is a major nutrient for plant growth and root formation, most phosphorus in soil is in an insoluble form. Soluphos® SP tackles this issue by dissolving the fixed phosphorus into a plant utilizable form. Thus, plants can utilize residual phosphorus in soil and optimize external applications of fertilizers.
Recommended application methods:
The bacteria are most effective when closet to plant roots. To reach the plant roots, we recommend applying Soluphos® SP by:
- Root dipping
- Drip irrigation
How it Works
Step 1
Phorphorus is present but insoluble and unusable in the soil. The phosphorus ions are fixed to minerals and are not in a form that can be utilized by plants.
Step 2
Soluphos® SP is applied containing beneficial phosphorus solubilizing bacteria.
Step 3
The bacteria release organic acids and enzymes that solubilize the fixed phosphorus in the soil. In other words, phosphorus is separated from minerals.
Step 4
Phosphorus ions are in a form that is usable by the plants. How plants can absorb free phosphorus and minerals present in the nutrient rich soil.
