To farmers, a healthy soil is key to a good crop yield, and nitrogen is key to healthy soil. Plants need nitrogen to grow just like our bodies need to have protein that contains the nitrogen we get by eating vegetables or the animals that ate those plants. Even though the earth's atmosphere is 78% nitrogen the plants can't make use of that nitrogen because their atoms are too tightly bound… until a strong bolt of lightning separates the two.
With up to a billion volts of electricity, lightning burns at 50,000 degrees, making it hotter than the surface of the sun. When lightning strikes, it tears apart the bond in airborne nitrogen molecules. Those free nitrogen atoms then have the chance to combine with oxygen molecules to form a compound called nitrates. Once formed, the nitrates are carried down to the ground by rainfall. nitrates are considered a “super fertilizer.” So, in addition to providing a spectacular show, lightning also helps fertilize the soil and green the plants up faster.
Our Enrich N48 is a 100% natural balanced (nonbacterial) nutrient formula, designed specifically for utilization in all types of environments that require optimum growth and high quality crop yields. Our EnRich N48 formula contains 48% (Natural Occurring) nitrogen derived from a customized blend of Biotech/AgriZymes of highly concentrated and stabilized broad based Amino Acid complex, proteins, co- enzymes, enzymes and PureFulvic Trace Minerals. EnRich N48 is a (100% non-leachable) readily available form of nitrogen.
The combination of these synergistic, stabilized ingredients insures a longer shelf life, and a product with higher and more inclusive nutrient values. N48 is non-toxic, non-hazardous, safe to handle, environmentally friendly, and can be used in any agriculture or horticulture applications. EnRich N48 is a liquid natural form of nitrogen that can replace synthetic chemical nitrogen fertilizers.
It is a well-documented fact that if a grower needs 46 units of Nitrogen to grow a crop, he must add double this amount (92 units), as over 50% of chemical Nitrogen is routinely leached out into our water streams and air within 2 to 3 weeks, even sooner if it rains.
The United States Department of Agriculture has determined that only 7% of the chemical fertilizers applied to crops are utilized by the plants while the remaining 93% becomes “locked” as insoluble inorganic salts. This build-up of insoluble chemicals is one of the main factors that cause soil to become poor and less able to support healthy plant growth. While these salts cannot be absorbed by the crops, they can be released in run-off caused by heavy rains into adjacent rivers and lakes. Satellite photos show increasing dead zones in regions of the world where major rivers empty into the ocean.
This waste and excessive dosage is totally unnecessary, quite costly to the farmers and their customers, and very detrimental to our environment due to the leaching of nitrates, high acidity, and toxicity content of synthetic urea and other chemical fertilizers.
EnRich N48, on the other hand, contains 100% usable Nitrogen which is readily (immediately) available to the leaves and roots of all plant life. It is non-leachable; therefore you get the full benefit of the 48% Nitrogen that is in the product. This means, faster uptake of the Nitrogen, better utilization of available Nitrogen, healthier crops, a more cost effective Nitrogen, higher crop yields – and all of this can be done with one product (Enrich N48), which is totally safe for use with people, plants and pets.
Chemical Nitrogen washes into streams, lakes, rivers and eventually into the ocean and create algal blooms the depletes the waters oxygen, discolor the waves and release toxins into the water in turn kill fish, manatees, dolphins and any other animals that are unfortunate enough to get in it's path.
By using our 100% non-leachable Enrich N48 instead of chemical nitrogen/urea we can help neutralize the runoff pollution and quit feeding the algae the essential nutrients it needs to thrive and destroy so much marine life. Microganix wants to be the holistic solution in this nations fight against all variety of toxic algae blooms.
The red tide is caused by a microorganism called Karenia brevis that feeds off of various nutrients in the water and commercial development has caused the red tide to be far worse than it has been in the past.
Lake Erie’s algae blooms are caused by runoff pollution. This type of pollution occurs when rainfall washes fertilizer and manure spread on large farm fields into streams that flow into Lake Erie. This fuels a bumper crop of algae each year that can make water toxic to fish, wildlife, and people.
Scientists report that reducing the amount of chemical runoff pollution will significantly reduce Lake Erie algae blooms and improve the lake’s health.
