摘要:
A composition for agricultural or horticultural application, which contains isoleucine as an active ingredient, and is sprinkled on a fruit vegetable, fruit tree, or grain plant, or a harvested fruit as a solution having an isoleucine concentration of 0.5 to 75 mM, is sprinkled on a leaf surface and/or a fruit of a plant to provide at least one of promotion of blooming, promotion of the appearance of the fruit, improvement in number of fruit produced, promotion of coloring of fruit, improvement in essential amino acid and/or γ-ABA content, promotion of carotenoid synthesis, and improvement in antioxidant capacity.
摘要:
A fertilizer product comprising an acid-carbonized microporous matrix derived from expanded biomass and a fertilizer reaction product of residual acid from the carbonizing process and at least one added fertilizer precursor. The biomass may include steam exploded wood powder. The expanded biomass may be carbonized with a combination of sulphuric and phosphoric acids, followed by ammoniation to produce ammonium sulphate and mono- or diammonium phosphate. The fertilizer reaction product adsorbs onto the carbon matrix, which results in a slow-release when the material is applied to the soil.
摘要:
A controlled release fertilizer material comprising a particulate plant nutrient surrounded by at least one coating comprising the reaction product of a mixture consisting essentially of a polyol having an equivalent weight from 29 to 150, an isocyanate, a wax, an epoxidized fatty acid triglyceride oil, and optionally, a castor oil.
摘要:
Fertilizers may include one or more additives that render the fertilizer more resistant to further processing such as thermal processing and/or aqueous-based processing that may otherwise be employed in the attempt to produce explosive materials from the fertilizer. The one or more additives may include materials that increase the chances of detection by providing a visual or olfactory indication of further processing. The one or more additives may include materials that make further processing more difficult or dangerous.
