Agro-Clino is a natural soil conditioner made from zeolite clinoptilolite.

With its high cation exchange capacity (CEC), it improves soil structure and enhances the availability of nutrients and water for all types of plants.

Properties and Benefits:

  • 100% natural soil conditioner.
  • Contains no toxic substances.
  • Increases the cation exchange capacity of the soil.
  • Stores nutrients and water in its porous structure.
  • Allows for longer availability of essential nutrients in the soil, thereby improving crop quality and promoting early maturity.
  • Boosts crop yields.
  • Helps save water by extending irrigation periods.
  • Aerates heavy soils and prevents the formation of felt layers.
  • Stabilizes the pH level.
  • Reduces salinity due to excessive use of chemical fertilizers.
  • Enhances germination, contributes to maintaining healthy roots, and prevents root rot.
  • Prevents the absorption of heavy metals, radioactive material, and toxins into plant tissue and groundwater.
  • Binds nitrate and ammonium.

Does not dissolve in water, thus remains active over extended periods. Prevents the formation of mold, fungi, mycotoxins, and unpleasant odors when mixed with silage.

Application: Agro Clino can be used in fields or greenhouses in conjunction with chemical fertilizers, manure, and peat before planting. For fruit trees (olives, apples, apricots, cherries, peaches, quinces, plums, bananas, pears, etc.), it should be mixed into the soil below the leaf projection area. The dosage varies depending on soil type and tree species.

Best results are achieved when Agro-Clino is applied before rain or irrigation. For fruit trees, it should be added to the planting hole at a ratio of 1/3 of the planting hole bottom. It is recommended to conduct a soil analysis before dosing and correct application.

Results from studies:

The efficiency of Agro-Clino as a soil conditioner in acidic and alkaline soils:

Adding Agro-Clino to mixtures of acidic or alkaline soils with specific fertilizers significantly impacts the controlled slow release of nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and sulfur), making them available over extended periods.

Due to its porous structure, Agro-Clino stores a significant amount of water. Its high cation exchange capacity (CEC) activates the soil.

Recommended application for crops:

Should be mixed with the soil before planting while preparing the field or seedbed.

Cereals (wheat, barley, oats, rye, etc.) 1000-3000 kg/ha
Industrial crops (rice, cotton, sunflower, maize, etc.) 1000-3000 kg/ha
Vegetables (tomatoes, peppers, melons, arugula, etc.) 2000-5000 kg/ha
Forage crops (clover, Sudan grass, sorghum, etc.) 1000-3000 kg/ha

Greenhouses:

Tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, cucumbers, melons, etc. 2000-5000 kg/ha
Ornamental plants 2000-4000 kg/ha

Fruit Trees:

Should be mixed with the soil around the plant.

Banana 1-2 kg per root Grapes,
strawberries 1000-2500 kg/ha

Should be mixed with the soil within the leaf projection area up to a depth of 10-15 cm.

Lemon, orange, apple, pear, peach, cherry, plum, apricot, olive, nuts, berries, etc. 250-500 g per tree depending on age.

Seedlings:

Should be mixed with the soil in the planting hole.

Seedlings 2-5 kg per seedling

Application: Add 7-10 kg per m² of the seedbed or mix up to 30% with seedling soil. Seedlings 7-10 kg/m² Application amounts may vary depending on soil type and regional and seasonal conditions.

Agro Clino is certified for organic farming and is manufactured in accordance with European regulations (EC) No. 834/2007 and No. 889/2008, which together provide the framework for the organic production and labeling of organic products.
