How Knowledge Tree Soil Conditioner Benefit Turf

Photo taken 1 month into drought that started around mid Jan 2014. Green patches in non-irrigated field used 2 rounds of Knowledge Tree soil conditioning fertilizer just before onset of drought.

1 month after fertilizer demo, Ktree demo zone remains robust green, surrounding control zone starts to yellow. Switched to Ktree with fertilizer application reduced from 12 rounds to 6 / year.

Oil Palm Yield Increase 10kg/Palm Over 11 Months @ UMP Blk B23

A trial of Knowledge Tree Soil Conditioner was carried out on Block 23, total area 89.5acres, planting density 69 palms / acre, planted Feb 2008. The soil conditioner application rate of 1 kg per tree per year is divided over 2 applications in Nov2013 and Mar2014 to coincide with the application of MOP. The soil conditioner can also be applied along with other major nutrients. After the first application of soil conditioner, there was settling in period over December 2013 before harvest data collection commenced, Harvest data were recorded from Jan2014 to Nov2014. The trial set up and harvest results are summarized in the table below:

Photo taken 13 Apr 2011

Without proper soil treatment, plants may survive but not grow optimally. A tropical shrub, Caesalpinia Pulcherrima, was planted in Feb 2011. Top picture marked with demo setup, & shows status of saplings in April 2011. The rightmost block served as comparison using standard irrigation & soil treatment. On left of control block, sand treated with KnowledgeTree soil conditioning fertilizer & irrigation ↓ to 50% of standard rate. (Vertical partitions installed into sand prevent lateral flow of water across zones). By Jun 2011, Caesalpinia with less water grew better than those with more water; with tallest in the 50% . Even with reduced irrigation, sufficient moisture in retained around root area by soil conditioning fertilizer. The plants with least irrigation grew best because they had most nutrients due to retention by KnowledgeTree soil conditioner & reduced leaching rate due to elimination of excess water.

Abu Dhabi Green Wall Application , 4 July 2012

Transplanting in summer, early July 2012

Situation in Nov 2012

Using Ktree expedite tree growth on construction site with saline sand. Trees are not transplanted between May – August when peak daily temperatures reaches 48°C causing high mortality rate. However in this instance, the Cornocapus trees not only survived, but irrigation was reduced by 35% compared to the norm for summer.
