Optimal plant nutrition | Reduced application rates | Labor saving | Environmentally friendly
Multicote™ Agri Controlled Release Fertilizers feed crops continuously throughout the growth season – for optimal growth and yield production.
Based on Haifa’s polymer coating technology, Multicote™ Agri release nutrients to the soil in a gradual manner, according to plant’s requirements. This prevents the leaching of nutrients, thus improving nutrient use efficiency and allowing for reduced application rates.
Multicote™ Agri is available in a wide range of and release profiles, for optimal match to crop requirements and growth conditions. Use the MultiMatch™ web software to select the best formula for you needs.

When to use Multicote™ Agri
Multicote™ Agri is highly beneficial
- On light soils, where conventional fertilizers are easily leached
- In rainy areas, when rainfall accelerates nutrient leaching
- Wherever nitrogen application is limited, e.g. by environmental regulations
- For crops with a shallow root system
- For crops with high nutritional requirements
- In cases where mid-season application is not feasible (e.g. when the crop covers the soil surface, in mulched crops and in muddy fields)

Fertilization independent of irrigation
As Multicote™ Agri is applied directly to the soil, it depends neither on irrigation equipment nor water quantities. When excess irrigation is applied to prevent salinity build-up, soluble fertilizers given through the irrigation system are wasted. Multicote™ Agri prevents this scenario.
Multicote Agri™ also cancels the need for technical irrigation, given in rainy days just to provide nutrition. Thus, Multicote™ Agri saves bothers and water.
