Description
17-17-17 High tower compound fertiliser is made by high-tower granulation: a molten slurry is sprayed from the top of a tower and cools into granules on the way down. The important consequence is that every single granule carries the full 17-17-17 analysis. Nothing can separate in the auger, in the truck, or across the spread pattern, so the ratio reaching the far edge of a paddock is the ratio on the label. That makes it the form to choose for broadcast spreading at scale, for contract spreading where you are not there to watch, and for long storage, because tower granules are hard, free-flowing and resist caking. Where you need the ratio changed rather than guaranteed, our blended 17-17-17 is the cheaper route. Supplied in bulk, bulka bags or bagged, minimum 10 MT.
