Abstract

leaf fertilizer and manufacturing process. The present invention relates to an innovative foliar fertilizer formulation developed especially for ready use for low volume applications in aerial (agricultural aircraft) and terrestrial (tractors, uniports and costal) sprays. The processing of the formulation of the present invention is divided into three sequential steps, namely the preparation of a solution with water almost at the saturation limit of fertilizer salts, acids and bases contained in the foliar fertilizer formulation 1; then preparing a homogeneous suspension containing water, glycerin, oil, foliar fertilizer 2 and thickener and finally preparing the final product from said suspension emulsion in said solution by adding a suitable emulsifier in sufficient quantity.

Description

“FOLIAR FERTILIZER AND MANUFACTURING PROCESS”.

[001] This invention relates to an innovative foliar fertilizer formulation developed especially for ready use for low volume applications in aerial (agricultural aircraft) and terrestrial (tractor, uniport and costal) sprays.

Concerning the state of the art, there are various formulations of fertilizers of various types and manufacturers, but none with the technical characteristics, formulation and manufacturing process described herein.

In order to arrive at a product line sufficiently distinct and technically superior to the state of the art, the present “FOLIANT FERTILIZER AND MANUFACTURING PROCESS” was developed which, from then on, will be easier to read this text from then on. , abbreviated as "FERTILIZER".

[004] Processing of the formulation of the present "FERTILIZER" is divided into three sequential steps, namely the preparation of a solution with water almost at the limit of saturation of salts, acids and fertilizer bases contained in the foliar fertilizer formulation 1; then preparing a homogeneous suspension containing water, glycerin, oil, foliar fertilizer 2 and thickener and finally preparing the final product from said suspension emulsion in said solution by adding a suitable emulsifier in sufficient quantity. The amount of emulsifier will invariably depend on the water used and the characteristics of the two foliar fertilizer formulations used.

[005] The variation of plus or minus 10% in the relative share of each component should not compromise the preparation of the final product, provided that the responsible technician can distinguish the appropriate "point" from the formulation.

[006] The final product “FERTILIZER” is a ready-to-use nutrient syrup that accepts dilution in water in any proportion and can therefore be sprayed on low, medium or high application volume.

[007] In low volume application, “FERTILIZER” should be injected directly into the sprayer tank. For medium or high volume, water should be added depending on the technique to be used.

[008] As properties present in the "FERTILIZER" can be cited the nutritious, viscous and high flow formulation; high concentration of nutrients; lower evaporation rates of spray mist, due to the oil that begins to float on the surface of the drops; fluid with moisturizing and emollient characteristics, due to glycerin dissolved in the syrup; higher coverage rates of micro areas affected by spray droplets as a result of the rapid dispersion of fluid promoted by dispersants (detergents and glycerin) and lower risk of plant injury due to the protective, moisturizing and emollient action of the product due to the presence of glycerin and emuised oil.

[009] This set of properties ensures the highest nutritional efficiency of the “FERTILIZER” and enables significant economies of scale in the agricultural production process, such as a reduction of 250/500 liters / ha to up to 20 liters / ha in tractor spraying and a reduction in the usual volumes of 50 to 20 and 30 to 15 liters / ha for aerial spraying.

Due to the reduction in the pulverized volume described above, consequently there is also the elimination of the large infrastructure of the agricultural enterprises involved in the transportation of water, preparation of nutrient syrups, filtration, sprayer supply and the reduction of the labor force. involved in the process. With the “FERTILIZER”, the nutritious drop comes ready and filtered for direct injection into the sprayer tanks without the need for any more relevant care.

With regard to sprayers, due to the significant reduction in spray volumes and consequent frequent refills, the operational efficiency of the equipment increases and the final application costs decrease.

Due to the quality of the spray mist droplets, the risks of drift and hypothetical “environmental contamination” are reduced to almost zero. In addition, it should be noted that leaf fertilizers are not pesticides or environmental contaminants. risk.

Finally, “FERTILIZER” is a technological solution that enables plant leaf nutrition at low application volume.

Finally, it can be concluded that the present "FOLIANT FERTILIZER AND MANUFACTURING PROCESS" presents developments in relation to the state of the art, which leads to the necessary conditions for granting the Patent of Invention.
