ANSHAN Co Ltd LiSt-Forte™ – POTASSIUM HUMATE organomineral fertilizer (the valley peat based liquid concentrate) LiSt-Forte™ POTASSIUM HUMATE (the organomineral fertilizer) is a concentrate of bioactive compounds of humates and fulvates, as well as micro- and macroelements activating growth and development of vegetables and animal organisms. The organomineral fertilizer LiSt-Forte™ is a result of cooperation of two leading Ukrainian certified laboratories: The humic substances laboratory named after Prof. L.A. Khristeva (Dnipropetrovs’k State Agrarian University) led by Prof. L.M. Stepchenko, The laboratory of organic fertilizers and humus (National Scientific Center “Institute for Soil Science and Agrochemistry Research named after A.N. Sokolovsky”, Kharkiv) led by Prof. E.V. Skrylnik. Uniqueness of LiSt-Forte™ POTASSIUM HUMATE is that the conversion of humic substances into the forms available for plants takes two process stages, and it allows extracting humic fractions, which are absolutely different by their nature and properties. Combination of several fractions of humic substances at the appointed ratios allowed detecting a synergetic effect among them (it is a case, when two operations are not summed up, but mutually increase each other’s effect to a considerable degree), as well as expanding substantially the action spectrum of the agent itself. CONTENT OF THE BASE ACTIVE INGREDIENT: Humic acids Fulvic acids Total nitrogen, N Total phosphorus, P2O5 Total potassium, K2O no less than 30.0 g/l no less than 7.0 g/l no less than 30.0 g/l no less than 10.0 g/l no less than 50.0 g/l pH of LiSt-Forte™ POTASSIUM HUMATE: 10.0 – 11.0 pH of spray material: 7.0 – 7.5 CONTENT OF THE MICROELEMENTS: Microelement no less than, g/l Mn 0.3 Zn 0.1 Co 0.05 Cu 0.1 Fe 0.1 Mo 0.01 B 0.2 Mg 20.0 Ca 25.0 S 10.0 1 PURPOSE: LiSt-Forte™ POTASSIUM HUMATE is intended for all species of crops in any edaphic-climatic zones, it is recommended for all stages of plants’ growth and development. The fertilizer is recommended in organic farming for output of ecologically clean production. METHOD OF APPLICATION: LiSt-Forte™ POTASSIUM HUMATE is applied as a spray material, both separately, and in tank mixtures with crop protecting agents, and with soluble fertilizers within the bounds of scheduled treatments. The fertilizer is completely soluble in water, and it enables its application in the modern drip watering systems. Application technology for LiSt-Forte™ POTASSIUM HUMATE includes the following stages: – seed pre-treatment, – foliar treatment (spraying of plants during vegetation), – root treatment (watering and drip irrigation), – crop-residue management followed by embedding into the ground. APPLICATION RESULTS: Raising the level of cultivated crop yield from 11.0 to 50.0 % depending on species (hybrid), type and soil status, and weather conditions, Hectare rate decrease of PPP (plant protection products) and mineral fertilizers to 30 % owing to better accessibility, when using them with LiSt-Forte™ products, Increase of plant resistance to drought, frosts and other hostile environmental conditions, Increase of plant resistance to different diseases, Increase of plant establishment rate in case of replantation, increase of germinative energy and field germination rate, Formation of vigorous rootage, metabolism activation and absorption of macro- and microelements from the soil, Attenuation of toxic effect of heavy metals and chemical weed and pest killers, Plant growth and development initiation which considerably accelerates crop maturation, Improvement of food palatability traits, nitrate concentration reduction, content increase of amino acids and proteins, carbohydrates, fat, organic acids and other valuable components, Shelf life increase, product appearance improvement, Improvement of physicochemical and biological soil properties, soil enrichment not only with humic and fulvic acids, but with macro- and microelements of plant nutrition, binding of movable joints of heavy metals, development stimulation of beneficial soil microflora and fauna, and biological processes of humus formation. 2 ADVANTAGES of LiSt-Forte™ POTASSIUM HUMATE: HIGH EFFICIENCY. LiSt-Forte™ preparation is a preparation of biologically active type because of its rich mineral composition of feed stock, and a combination of inherently different humic fractions, which increase each other’s effect. QUALITY ASSURANCE. The high quality of LiSt-Forte™ products is confirmed by leading certified laboratories of humic fertilizers within the Ukrainian territory. HIGH COST EFFICIENCY. Inclusion of LiSt-Forte™ organomineral fertilizer to the plant protection plan is economically sound owing to hectare rate decrease of mineral fertilizers and PPP to 30% (when applying in one tank mixture with LiSt-Forte™ preparation) and raising of the cultivated crop yield level from 11 to 50 % (for different crops). ENVIRONMENTAL CLEANNESS. Peat for production of LiSt-Forte™ fertilizers is extracted from ecologically clean regions of Ukraine. CUSTOMIZED APPROACH. AHSHAN Co Ltd specialists provide consulting concerning any topics on LiSt-Forte™ products application. At the customer’s option it is available to draw up individual dosage schedules for application of LiSt-Forte™ POTASSIUM HUMATE in complete with other preparations for different crops. COMPATIBILITY. LiSt-Forte™ POTASSIUM HUMATE is compatible with PPP and mineral fertilizers, therefore it does not require any expenses for single applications. 3
