PHA is a biodegradable polymer naturally produced by microorganisms through fermentation process. PHA slow-release fertilizers are made by encapsulating nutrients in small balls or granules made of PHA to achieve the effect of slow-release, so as to achieve the purpose of improving the utilization rate of fertilizers and reducing the environmental pollution.

Features

  1. Long-lasting: Due to its special structural design, PHA slow-release fertilizers can continuously provide crops with essential nutrients over a long period of time.
  2. Environmentally friendly: as one of the bio-based materials, PHA itself has good biodegradability, and can be decomposed by microorganisms in nature after completing its mission, without causing soil pollution.
  3. Water-saving and energy-saving: Compared with traditional fertilization methods, the use of PHA slow-release fertilizers can effectively reduce the number of times and the amount of water used for irrigation, and also save the human resources required in the application process.
  4. Promote healthy growth of plants: The rate of nutrient release is reasonably controlled, avoiding problems such as root burning caused by over-fertilizing, which helps plants grow healthily.

Applications 

  1. Agriculture
    1. In vegetable cultivation, by adjusting the proportion and type of PHA slow-release fertilizer, it can meet the nutrient demand of different vegetable varieties during the whole growth cycle.
    2. For fruit trees, PHA slow-release fertilizers can better match the characteristics of their long growing period, ensuring the quality of fruits and reducing labor intensity.
  2. Horticultural greening
    1. In urban gardening, the use of PHA slow-release fertilizer not only helps to improve the survival rate of plants and trees, but also significantly reduces the cost of maintenance.
    2. Home gardening enthusiasts can also choose PHA slow-release fertilizers suitable for small potted plants to enjoy the fun of green life.
  3. Ecological restoration
    1. When restoring the vegetation in some seriously polluted areas, the use of PHA slow-release fertilizers can help the new plants to take root quickly and gradually improve the quality of the local ecological environment.
