www.fibrophos.co.ukWhat is Fibrophos?
Fibrophos is a PK fertiliser of totally
organic origin consisting mainly
of phosphate and potash, with
sulphur, magnesium, calcium,
sodium and significant quantities
of essential trace elements required
by crops and grass.
Fibrophos is a unique compound
fertiliser. It is not a blend.
Where does Fibrophos
come from?
Fibrophos is derived from the
incineration of predominantly deep
litter poultry manure in excess of
850°C which is used as a fuel for
state of the art electricity power
stations. The first was built at
Eye in Suffolk in 1991 with others
commissioned soon after.
What does Fibrophos
fertiliser contain?
The resultant ash from the furnace
is pure fertiliser containing all the
plant nutrients (except nitrogen)
in similar proportions to those
present in cereal crops. Applied
to land as Fibrophos PK Fertiliser,
these nutrients are in turn taken
up from the soil by crops and
grass to ensure the nutrients
are replaced or recycled.
It is as a renewable nutrient
source that Fibrophos reduces
the use of scarce resources such
as mined mineral phosphates
and potassium.
