Select PeKacid helps to clean the fertigation system which allows the system to reach it’s maximum efficiency (flow throughput). The system has a longer lifespan and the water and fertilizers are spread evenly. Depending on the amount of bicarbonate HCO3 that needs to be reduced the usage of Select PeKacid might be enough. No additional acidifier is then needed.

The acidifying effect of Select PeKacid is very powerful. 0,24 gram Select PeKacid buffers 1 mmol (61mg) HCO3 or 1 gram of Select PeKacid buffers 4,2 mmol (256mg) HCO3. Select PeKacid can be used for a short time to clean pipes. It is preferred to perform this action between cultures. Put 3,5 to 5 kg / m3 Select PeKacid in the solution and run the system for 15 minutes. Then rinse the system with clean water for 15 minutes.

Agronomical advantages of Select PeKacid

• Decreases pH of water and soil which helps to increase the uptake efficiency 
• Promotes uptake of (trace)elements in alkaline soils (pH >7)
• Promotes uptake of (soil)phosphorus and delivers readily available orthophosphate to the plant
• The acidification effect decreases P-fixation in the fertigated zone
• Clogged irrigation / fertigation systems become clean again
• Precipitated drippers clean up which allows the perceived volume to flow through
• Select PeKacid can be mixed with calcium and / or magnesium
• Select PeKacid can be easily mixed with nitrogen products; therefore the user has full control over the nitrogen supplement to the crop

Use Select PeKacid as a solid phosphoric acid or acidifying Select MKP in your fertilization program. Select PeKacid is especially recommended in situations where low solution pH is required. Select PeKacid can be easily mixed with other Select products or combined with compound NPK water soluble fertilizers. Do not mix with other phosphorus containing fertilizers.
