Description
17-17-17 Blended fertiliser is a physical blend: separate straight fertilisers weighed and mixed to a 17-17-17 ratio rather than manufactured as one granule. That choice buys you two things. It costs less per unit of nutrient than a tower-granulated compound, and the ratio is not fixed – we can shift it to match your soil test, which is the whole point of blending in Australia rather than importing a set analysis. The trade-off is honest: because the granules are separate products, rough handling or an uneven spreader can let the components segregate. Handle it gently and spread it properly and it performs; if you cannot guarantee that, our high-tower 17-17-17 cannot segregate at all. Supplied in bulk, bulka bags or bagged, minimum 10 MT.
