1 PLANT GRWTH IN HARMNY WITH NATURE

2 KELPAK BENEFITS WHY KELPAK This natural seaweed concentrate utilises a unique process to deliver an end product that is scientif ically proven to have numerous benef icial physiological effects on plants. ngoing international research trialling proves Kelpak s ability to consistently increase the health, quality yield in a wide variety of crops, with resultant prof its benef iting farmers around the wld f over fty years. THE SURCE The giant brown kelp species Ecklonia maxima, is h harvested by divers in the clean nutrient rich waters off the rugged, cold Atlantic coastline of southern Africa. A strict harvesting protocol is followed to ensure unifmity activity that is essential f the raw material used to manufacture Kelpak. - Prolific lateral rooting - Increases growth of seedlings - Increases growth of nursery plant-outs - Improves nutrient uptake - Increases photosynthesis - Alleviates the effect of stresses - Increases pollen germination tube growth - Increases fertilisation - Increases fruit set retention, size colour - Improves shelf-life during cold stage KELPAK APPLICATIN - Seed coating - Planter application - Root dip - Soil drench - Drip irrigation - Foliar spray conventional, electrostatic aerial Phlotannins (Eckol) H Active compounds act individually in concert, contributing to numerous favourable physiological responses PTIMAL USAGE THE PRCESS The freshly harvested seaweed is sted, cut, washed, inspected gradually reduced. The material is then subjected to high pressure, applying a signif icant degree of potential energy into each particle. When passed at high velocity through a low pressure zone, this sted energy instantaneously exps, causing the cell walls to rupture, releasing the active compounds found in Kelpak. This non-denaturing process avoids the use of heat, chemicals freezing is known as Cold Cellular Burst Technology, a proprietary method ref ined over the last four decades. THE RESULT Return on investment has proven to be consistently high in global trials. This natural seaweed concentrate offers numerous benef its, with resultant increased production prof its f the end user.
