Biosol Forte is the ideal fertilizer for arable farming, vegetables, fruit and vineyards. The high nutrient content, together with the high content of organic substance in Biosol Forte, result in activation of the soil life and therefore permanent regeneration of the soil.
Biosol Forte has been accepted as fertilizer for integrated production by the Austrian agricultural-environmental program ÖPUL.

Recommended use
Biosol Forte is suited for all agricultural crops with high nutrient demands. It is particularly important that an adequate initial effect is achieved in spite of the organically-fixed nitrogen. Biosol Forte is ideal for potatoes, beets, corn and most vegetables, but also for fruit and wine.
How does Biosol Forte work?
Biosol Forte contains 7 – 9 % of nitrogen, which is mainly organically fixed. It is not immediately available, but converted by the soil organisms to a form that can be used by the plants (mineralization). This has a very positive effect on the soil life and fertility, and at the same time ensures a continuous and long-term nutrient supply.
A further asset of Biosol Forte is the so-called priming effect: The activated soil organisms mineralize more nutrients from the soil substance – additional nutrients for the plant!
How to apply?
Biosol Forte should be applied topically or lightly worked into the soil two weeks before seeding or planting. Water and oxygen are required so that the fertilizer can be converted.
One fertilizer application per growth period is sufficient for most cultures. Only intensive crops (vegetables, ornamental plants) may require complementary fertilization with reduced quantities.
