The P&K is slow release, does this mean it won’t work quickly enough at low indices?
Not at all. The P&K are in both immediately available and sustained forms, providing nutrient throughout the growing season.

Find out how Fibrophos works and how it is produced
How does it work? It’s not a blend but it replaces nutrients in the same ratio removed by the growing crop. The immediate effects are a big PK boost. Unlike some other fertilisers there is a longer term benefit with the release of nutrients steadily over time, building balanced, stable soil and healthier, stronger crops. […]
What are the major benefits of Fibrophos?
Fibrophos provides P&K in both immediately available and long lasting forms, providing available plant nutrients throughout the growing season and also replenishes nutrients removed to improve soil fertility.
Secondary nutrients for your soil WITHOUT extra cost
In addition to PK elements, Fibrophos fertilisers contain a wide range of secondary nutrients (Sulphur, Magnesium, Sodium & Calcium) and important trace elements in significant quantities – all without extra cost. Furthermore, chemical analysis has shown that those released are in forms available to plants. Our handbook contains detailed reports and test results for Sulphur, […]
Fibrophos PK Fertiliser for Grassland
Fibrophos helps to raise the soil phosphate and potash indices on the poorest soils and together with all the other key nutrients naturally contained within it, will help to increase yields across the farm. Regular applications of Fibrophos ensure that phosphate and potash, so vital for grass establishment, are maintained and those important secondary and […]
Potash in Fibrophos
Fibrophos is a very effective source of potash, which is an important nutrient for grass especially where the whole crop is removed by silage or hay cuts. In grain, potash is removed in proportion to the yield, e.g. 27 units per acre are removed in each tonne of grain and straw. 40 units per acre […]
Phosphate in Fibrophos
Trials have shown that Fibrophos is a very effective source of phosphate across a wide range of soil types throughout the UK. The phosphate in Fibrophos is more than 80% soluble in 2% citric acid and half is soluble in neutral ammonium citrate providing a long lasting as well as immediate supply to the growing […]
Fibrophos PK Fertiliser – organic – sustainable – renewable
Fibrophos is an organic PK fertiliser consisting mainly of phosphate and potash, with sulphur, magnesium, calcium, sodium and significant quantities of essential trace elements, required by root crops, grassland, cereals and arable crops to achieve high yields. It is derived from the incineration of predominantly deep litter poultry manure, used to fuel state of the […]
Fibrophos as a P&K source for potatoes
Comparison: Maincrop potatoes grown on randomised replicated plots were compared with conventional fertiliser as TSP and MOP. Conclusion: There were significant yield differences where fertiliser was applied but not between Fibrophos and the comparable TSP and MOP suggesting that Fibrophos is a suitable nutrient for potatoes. The results of the soil analysis showed that Fibrophos […]
The importance of replenishing our soil
It is now finally dawning on many that we cannot sustain the same level of intensive agriculture that we have seen over the past 50 years. Cereal yields have continued to grow as great progress has been made with genetics and soil nutrition but too little attention has been given to the vital medium which sustains this growth – the soil.
