Product Name –
Silicon Soil Application |
Product Description –
Silicone Soil Application – this type of silicone has been specially formulated to be directly applied onto the soil. It is an immediate plant-available form of silicon, allowing the beneficial element to be absorbed by the root and transported throughout the entire plant. This focused strategy offers long-time advantages for soil health and benefits plant performance. |
Product Specification –
|
Product Benefits –
|
Application/ Usage –
Blending: Incorporate into existing granular fertilizer blends for direct soil application at planting or in-season (consult recommendations) Fertilizer Injection: Some products are sufficiently dense to enable mixing with liquid fertilizers before injection through an irrigation system. Standalone Application: Silicone Soil Application may be performed as a standalone soil application in specific circumstances based on the requirements of the crop and recommendations by experts. |
Application time/duration –
The number of times it can be used and when to apply depends on the crop, soil type and what is wanted from using beneficial bacteria. Check with an agricultural adviser in your area for more precise suggestions. |
Precaution –
|
Shelf Life –
2-3 years when stored in an original unopened container under cool, dry conditions. |
Packaging –
Packaging types usually range from heavy-duty bags up to drums or bulk containers depending on the manufacturers. |

Silicon based adjuvants help improve the efficiency of products across seasons. In summers they prevent evaporation, during rain showers, they prevent wash-offs and aid in acyivating products during winters. Providing excellent shielding without the use of harsh chemicals, Silicon adjuvants are deemed safe even for organic farming. Also, because they do not contain any substances of chemical pesticides; they require no pre-harvest intervals, making crop protection safe and commercially viable.
At SAR Agro, we offer a quality range with 9 products for precise requirements.
This is a natural source of silica and it is having 98-99% Silicon content.

- Reduces loss of nutrients and water through leaching and microbial activity.
- Increases potash-fertilizer efficiency
- Protects natural waters against heavy metals, nutrients and organic toxins.
- Optimizes bio-solid utilization.
- Promotes more predictable and vigorous plant growth
- Results in higher survival rates with greater yields.
- Improves cation exchange capacity (CEC) and soil conductivity.
- Makes plants less palatable to insects.
- Enhances host resistance to plant diseases.
- Improves plant ability to overcome stresses.
- Greatly improves photosynthesis and chlorophyll production.
