Description
NPK 16-16-8 Cl-S fertiliser is a compound fertiliser: all three major nutrients manufactured into a single product at a fixed ratio, rather than blended from separates. You buy one analysis and spread it once. That is the convenience, and it is also the limit – a compound cannot be adjusted, so it suits a soil whose test the ratio already fits. Where the test points somewhere else, blending to that ratio wastes less. With 16% nitrogen leading 16% phosphorus and 8% potassium, the analysis is weighted to growth while still supplying the other two. That suits a crop being pushed through its main growth phase on soil with reasonable reserves, where a straight nitrogen source would leave the balance short. 40 units of nutrient in total. Supplied in bulk, bulka bags or bagged, minimum order 10 MT, delivered Australia-wide and shipped worldwide. A Certificate of Analysis and Safety Data Sheet are issued against the batch you receive.
NPK 16-16-8 CL & S Fertilizer Specification
Tower-granulated compound. Every granule carries the full declared ratio, so the analysis cannot separate in transit or spreading. The declared analysis and supply detail for NPK 16-16-8 CL & S Fertilizer are set out below. A Certificate of Analysis is issued on request against the batch you actually receive.

Where NPK 16-16-8 CL & S Fertilizer Is Used
General-purpose and maintenance nutrition
The three major nutrients are supplied in broadly comparable proportions, which makes this a maintenance and general-purpose analysis. It suits situations where a soil test shows no single nutrient dominating the deficiency, and where the aim is to replace what the previous crop removed.
