Micro Suspension (MS) Technology is a breakthrough in conventional plant nutrient technology that defies fertilizer science. It is a crop nutrient delivery system that delivers insoluble but highly bio-available minerals to crops. It optimizes absorption of nutrients by the plant, and hence maximizes benefits to the plant. An extremely small amount of minerals given to plants enhanced their growth from nursery stage to late growth or harvest stage. There is no runoff or leaching of the mineral particles around the plant root zones even under rain or irrigation. Applying a small amount of MS fertilizers is comparable to using tons of conventional, bulky water-soluble fertilizers. Hence LESS IS MORE aptly describes the essence of Micro Suspension Technology.
MS Technology uses abundant and renewable resources such as bone meal, silica sand, egg shell, sulfur as its starting material to produce environmentally-friendly fertilizers. The value of MS Technology lies in nutrient recycling of renewable resources. Nutrient recycling is a necessary process to safeguard a sustainable green environment by converting unwanted material into stable, value-added materials.
There are tremendous efforts and investments to improve the Nutrient Use Efficiency (NUE) which is important in sustainable agriculture. Technological innovations in NUE today focus on slow or control release of nutrients given to plant and soil ecosystems. Most efforts so far have produced solid, granule fertilizers that are water-soluble. Efforts in producing similar characteristics in liquid fertilizers have been minimal as optimizing the nutrient release pattern is a challenge. MS Technology has overcome the challenge through developing new generation liquid fertilizers with optimized nutrient release patterns. MS Technology enhances NUE (Nutrient Use Efficiency) of plants, resulting in optimal nutrient uptake by plants.
