Image of YaraTera KRISTA K PLUS
YaraTera KRISTA K PLUS (13.7-0-46.3) is a fully water soluble potassium nitrate fertiliser.

Soluble grade Potassium Nitrate
YaraTera KRISTA K PLUS is a free flowing, fine crystalline powder which dissolves quickly in water without any residues. It is suited to application through all fertigation systems – drip systems, low throw sprinklers, centre pivots and spray units.

Nitrate nitrogen
• Directly available for plant uptake, resulting in fast and predictable growth responses.
• None volatile nor adsorbed to soil particles, leaving it readily available to plants.
• The preferred nitrogen source for most horticultural and high value agricultural crops.
• Improves the plant uptake of the cations potassium, calcium and magnesium.

Potassium improves
• The efficiency of other nutrients, lifting crop yields.
• Fruit shape, colour and sugar content and therefore essential for crop quality.
• Water use efficiency helping control water loss in hot weather and improves tolerance to cold eg frosts, and so essential to stress tolerance.
• Cell wall strength, helping plants tolerate disease and insect infection.

Low N:K ratio
YaraTera KRISTA K PLUS has a low N : K ratio of 1 : 3 making it ideal for use during flower and fruit production.

Compatibility
YaraTera KRISTA K PLUS can be mixed with all water soluble fertilisers.

High purity
YaraTera KRISTA K PLUS is free of chlorine, sodium and heavy metals.

Concerned about hail damage to apples and pears
Concerned about hail damage to apples and pears
Apples and pears are both susceptible to hale damage in late spring with the potential for both fruits and leaves to be damaged. Whilst crop nutrition cant control the weather it can help mitigate some of the effects and help damaged crops recover.
How to recover frost damaged fruit crops
How to recover frost damaged fruit crops
Where fruit crops, particularly apples, pears and grapevines have suffered frost damage we need to think about how to best manage the crop buds which are left to both recover the damaged buds and then to recover the lost growth.
How to manage blueberry fertigation
How to manage higher temperatures in strawberries
Higher temperatures bring both good and bad news for strawberry growers. The good news is increased production and demand for strawberries but the downside is managing heat stress and other challenges. Controlling the crop through these tricky periods can be made easier by utilising foliar feeds.
Is there a better alternative to monopotassium phosphate
Is there a better alternative to monopotassium phosphate
Monopotassium phosphate, otherwise known as MKP is a product synonymous with fruit production that is widely used, primarily as a flower boosting green fruit supporter. However, at this point in time, MKP is sometimes difficult to get hold of, so many growers are asking if there is a better alternative.
How to manage blueberry fertigation
How to manage blueberry fertigation
Blueberry nutrition and fertigation is very much a consequence of the rooting system and pH range. Blueberries are more acid-loving than most soft fruits and also have a less efficient root system which has consequences for fertigation recommendations.

Late season advice for soft fruit crops
As the soft fruit production season nears an end with final harvests underway it is important to keep a focus on nutrition to avoid carrying any issues over to next season so here are a few recomendations for strawberry and raspberry growers to ensure crops go in to dormancy in good condition.
