Avail Phosphate Fertilizer Enhancer

What is Avail?
Avail is a polymer coating enhancing the effectiveness of phosphate fertilizers.

How does Avail work?
In the soil, Avail adsorbs Aluminum, Iron, and other cations increasing the phosphorus availability
to the plants’ roots.

Why do I care?
Applied phosphorus fertilizer is tied up by Aluminum, Iron, Calcium, Magnesium and other cations.
Typically, less than 25% of applied phosphate is utilized by the plant. Field results utilizing Avail,
commonly show 10-15% increase in yields.

Can I reduce my phosphorus fertilizer then?
We encourage a soil test. Apply the recommended amount of phosphate. Applying the
recommended amount generally produces a healthier, productive crop.

Does Avail work for all crops?
Yes. Since the Avail works on the phosphorus fertilizer, it will help any crop that uses phosphorus.

Does Avail work with all fertilizers?
It works with all phosphate fertilizers. (i.e. DAP, 18-46-0; MAP 11-52-0; TSP, 0-45-0) and all
Liquid phosphorus fertilizers (i.e. 10-34-0, 11-37-0)
