Begin™
Launch® is 'n vloeibare koolstofbedekking om Black Urea® en Black DAP™ te maak. Dit is 'n gepatenteerde innovasie wat 'n positiewe uitwerking het op die stabilisering van stikstof en fosfor in wisselende grondtoestande.
Stikstofgebruiksdoeltreffendheid (NUE)
Stikstofgebruiksdoeltreffendheid is die hoeksteen van voedselproduksie, en voldoen aan die voedselaanvraag van 'n groeiende bevolking, terwyl verminderde omgewingsimpakte nou en in die toekoms verseker word.
Hierdie doelwitte moet bereik word binne 'n ekonomiese volhoubaarheidsraamwerk vir boere - jy kan nie sonder die ander hê nie.
Baie prosesse om NUE te verbeter het bykomende koste vir boere. Launch® is die enigste deklaag/bymiddel tot stikstofkorrel- en vloeibare kunsmisstowwe wat voldoen aan die voedselproduksie-, omgewings- en ekonomiese doelwitte - sy The Sustainable NUE.
Volhoubare stikstofvoorsiening
Launch® is 'n komplekse organiese konsentraat wat humate, plantekstrakte, nie-ioniese oppervlakaktiewe middels, bio-stimulante en ander eie bestanddele bevat om voedingstofsiklusse te bevorder en plantproduksie te verhoog.
Bygevoeg as 'n deklaag by korrelkunsmisstowwe wat Black Urea® en Black DAP® maak. Launch® skep 'n volhoubare stikstofvoorsiening vir alle gewasse, beskerm die omgewing en is ekonomies voordelig vir boere.
Die skep van kunsmisinnovasie
Launch® is saamgestel op 'n basis van langketting organiese polihidriese polihidroksielsure. Hierdie verbindings het hul aktiwiteit te danke aan talle hoogs reaktiewe karboksiel- en hidroksielgroepe. Hierdie verbindings is kolloïdaal van aard en is uiters hidrofiel. Hulle word oor die algemeen geklassifiseer as tetrabasiese anione met 'n uiters hoë pH-afhanklike uitruilvermoë.
Die doeltreffendheid van hierdie verbindings as 'n voeding katalisator word toegeskryf aan hul verbetering van ioon-oordrag, hul verbetering van selwand deurlaatbaarheid, en hul vermoë om mikrobiese aktiwiteit te stimuleer.
Jou voordele
’n Kombinasie van chemieë om voedingstowwe in meer bruikbare vorms te hou en die opname en benutting daarvan deur die plant te bevorder.
Verminderde vermorsing en verliese deur vervlugtiging, loging en demineralisering verhoog bruto marges.
Groter biologiese aktiwiteit in die grond bevorder beskikbaarheid van beide teiken- en ander vasgemaakte voedingstowwe in die grond.
Verbeterde voedingstofsiklusse verminder insetkoste deur doeltreffendheid.
Die toekoms van volhoubare NUE
The Losses
An estimated 108 Tg of Nitrogen is lost from the soil each year due to:
-
N loss in the form of ammonia NH3 volatilization (ca. 11% of N-fertilizer application),
-
Runoff and leaching (ca. 24% of N-fertilizer application),
-
Nitrous oxide N2O emission (1% of N-fertilizer application).
Upon introduction into the soil, nitrogen fertilizers like urea undergo a series of transformations involving urea hydrolysis, nitrification, and denitrification, with resulting nitrates (NO3–) being partially lost to aquatic ecosystems due to leaching and runoff.
In a Perfect Soil - (This is what should happen)
In agro-ecosystems, rhizosphere exudates play a crucial role
in managing the nitrogen cycle, enabling underground chemical
interactions between plants and soil microbes.
Nitrogen emissions can be mitigated by specific rhizosphere
exudates from roots and microorganisms:
-
Release of biological nitrification inhibitors (BNIs) by plants
-
Secretion of biological denitrification inhibitors (BDIs) that slow
down nitrification and denitrification and urea hydrolysis
-
Microorganisms-based chemical signaling facilitating the
processes
-
Release of biological denitrification promoters (BDPs) from
roots and microbes (aquatic ecosystems) to enhance N removal via denitrification
What About In Not So Perfect Soils
The above shows us how soil biology in high carbon, high biologically active & balanced soils should control nitrogen cycles. But in old, tired Australian soils this cycle is unbalanced and rarely seen, and losses happen quickly.
So how do we improve it?
There are the chemical coatings on urea which inhibit specific aspects of this natural nitrogen cycle by killing certain microbial species for a set period. Their are urease inhibitors, nitrification and denitrification inhibitors, and then there are physical inhibitors. These are inhibitors that generally last for a set period and do an ok job for that period, but once the coating has run out, the nitrogen is then back to an unbalanced cycle, where more is lost as the above explains.
Launch® has been designed with the ability to hold nitrogen in the more stable form, ammonium, for longer whilst enhancing a balanced microbial cycle micro zone for nitrogen storage around a granule or with a liquid nitrogen.
Unlike chemical inhibitors, Launch® enhances the natural biological cycle in the micro zone instead of trying to inhibit/kill it, and it has no set period of stability as it is always in contact, bound with the nitrogen, whether it be a granule or once dissolved into the soil. This unique aspect of Launch® offers two very distinct advantages for farmers...
-
Due to its unique process of stabilisation of nitrogen, Launch® is the only coating that reduces environmental losses by up to 25-30%, (not stopping, but reducing) enabling nitrogen products to be applied at 25% - 30% less than normal practice for the same yield and quality results. As a result farmers reduce their nitrogen costs per hectare and can reduce their CO2e footprint also by 25%-30%.
-
It makes Launch® the only singular coating that can be added to Urea, DAP, liquid urea, UAN and Anhydrous Ammonia for nitrogen stabilisation through the reduction of environmental losses.
