Crop Nutrition
Contrary to what most Farmers think, the Fertilizer Industry is not providing crop nutrition solutions which are based on an exact science, the truth is, the practice of applying fertilizers to enhance crop production is in actual fact a scientific concept ONLY! With this being said, it also has to be said, that the industry is providing a highly valued professional service which in actual fact is delivering excellent results all the same.
However, the point I am wanting to drive home, is that there is still much room for improvement. In my mind, all considering, the industry should afford sincere endeavours to develop the existing science concept to serve nature as far as crop production and nutrition is concerned, bearing in mind aspects of human and animal health, as well as enhancing soil physical and chemical characteristics, as well as biological microbial activity on a sustainable platform.
It is for this reason that QSG-Consult International supports the scientific concept of HALF-ORGANIC FERTILIZERS, and as such has reservations concerning 100% Organic and/or 100% Chemical application practices. However, we abide by our Clients' preferences.

Apples In a Wash Bay
Application
1% Solution of 767-SEPT contains sufficient bacteriostatic action for a wide range of organisms. For disinfection by way of soaking the produce, mix 1% 767-SEPT with the water and soak the produce for approx 10-minutes. Cleansing and disinfection are done at room temperature. Considering the volumes of fruit/vegetables being packaged under large scale commercial operations, it is important to replace the water and 767-SEPT mix from time to time altogether with a new mix, depending on the accumulation of dirt in the wash bay - it is not best practice to top up with clean water only during this operation. Obviously, it all depends on the amount of produce that passes through the wash bays. It is important to ensure that 1% of 767-SEPT of the total mix volume is added.
Packaging
5Lt Drums and 20Lt Drums of 767-SEPT are available

Water-soluble 'Fertilizer', Disinfectant and Repellant for Fertigation and Foliar Applications
Foliar Nutrition
Foliar feeding provides fast, on-the-spot supplementary nutrition to ensure high, top quality yields and is an ideal feeding method under certain growth conditions in which absorption of nutrients from the soil is inefficient, or for use on short term crops.

Foliar Nutrition
Foliar feeding provides fast, on-the-spot supplementary nutrition to ensure high, top quality yields and is an ideal feeding method under certain growth conditions in which absorption of nutrients from the soil is inefficient, or for use on short term crops.
Precision-timed foliar sprays are also a fast-acting and effective method for addressing nutrient deficiencies. Foliar application of the correct nutrients in relatively low concentrations at critical stages in the crop development stage contributes significantly to higher yields and improved quality. The QUALITY-SMART Group offers a selection of premium fertilizers for foliar applications.
COMBINED SOLUTION - Potassium Nitrate + Wetting Agent + Neem Oil + Agri-Fert 777 TR + 757 TR
Potassium fertilizers help the growth of Flowers and Vegetables with minimal problems from pests. It also promotes fruit growth and enhance the development of a robust root system necessary to assist the plant during scarcity of water supply. It also contributes to the overall health status of the plants and thus aids the plant in improving resistance to any form of pests and/or disease. The Potassium component of the Mix helps in maintaining the osmotic pressure and cell size of the plant and thus enhancing the process of photosynthesis and energy production. If the Potassium is low, plants have the tendency for restricted growth resulting in lesser yields and reduced flowering.
Mixture contains: Potassium Nitrate + propriety Surfactants @ 180grams/liter + a mixture of propriety Surfactants @ 170grams/liter
