Crop Nutrition

Nova Chemicals has been manufacturing fertilizer approved for organic farming and agriculture, semi-organic (integrated fertilizer) and water-soluble fertilizers in South Africa in partnership with NutriBio. Our Integrated Plant Nutrient Management system combines organic and inorganic nutrients to sustain soil fertility, boost productivity, and support the ecological and economic balance.

Using chemical or fertilizers approved for organic farming alone may lead to lower fertilizer use efficiency (FUE) but combining them increases FUE and improves soil health. Our approved products meet the standards for organic farming, while semi-organic fertilizers with added nutrients like Ammonium Sulphate, MAP, and Potassium are also available. We offer these blends pelletized and non-pelletized, tailored to the specific needs of your crops.
