Phos Activator delivers enhanced phosphate availability for increased root growth and a larger leaf area. Phos Activator is an inoculants containing the naturally occurring soil fungus Penicillium bilaiae (P. bilaiae), which grows along plant roots, releasing phosphate bound in the soil, making it more available for the crop to use. Penicillium bilaiae, the active ingredient in Phos Activator, does not eliminate the need for phosphate fertilizer, but provides crops access to more phosphate for higher yield potential.

Active in cool soil temperature when phosphate is less available
Freeing Phosphate - Penicillium bilaiae releases bound mineral forms of soil and fertilizer phosphate, making it more readily available for the plant to use. Up to 90% of applied phosphate fertilizer goes unused in the year of application as it gets tied (bound) to soil particles and other elements, making it unavailable to the crop. Some of this is used over subsequent years, but at least 25% never becomes available1. It is crucial to make the most efficient use of fertilizer phosphate to maximize yield potential.
Apply 1.5 gram / sqm if soil drench, as early as possible to the crop for optimal effect.
It can be applied utilizing commercial on seed application equipment. Applicators used previously for pesticides should be triple rinsed before using for Phos Activator.
Phos Activator can be used with all nitrogen-fixing rhizobial inoculants, To mix Phos Activator with a liquid inoculant, first suspend the entire contents of the Phos Activator in a small amount of the liquid inoculant for easier mixing. Pour the mixture into the remaining liquid Rhizobia inoculant and mix to suspend. No additional water is required.
