KEY BENEFITS

7-5-5 is specially formulated for grain crops. This fertilizer is balanced with phosphorus, potassium and nitrogen content containing high levels of trace nutrients, iron, zinc, and manganese. It contains proprietary activators to assist and help in translocation of nutrients essential for plant growth.

Benefits of 7-5-5
  • 7-5-5 is especially blended to supplement the nutrients generally required by grain crops for optimum growth.
  • Grain crops during the season often have a need for supplemental nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. Especially in calcareous, high pH soils iron and other micro-nutrients (zinc, manganese) are limiting. Iron is essential for chlorophyll formation and is required by the plant for many metabolic roles including nitrate reduction, nitrogen fixation and photosynthesis. A yellowing of grain may be a deficiency of nitrogen and iron. Potassium is essential for activity of many enzymes and aids in the uptake and transport of nutrients through cellular membranes. Adequate phosphorus is necessary for grain development and maturity.
The window of application has been found to be at the flag leaf stage (4-5 inches high). The grower at this time applies bronate or 2-4 D (herbicide) and the 7-5-5 may be included to save the grower cost of additional applications. A single foliar at this time has shown consistent increases from 10% to over 20% increase in yield.
APPLICATION GUIDE  

ADD WATER FIRST TO TANK OR SPRAYER BEFORE ADDING PRODUCT!

For AERIAL APPLICATIONS: Use at least 20 parts water to 1 part of ORION fertilizer. Add at least 20 parts water before introducing product.

For FOLIAR APPLICATIONS: Use at least 100 parts water to 1 part ORION Fertilizer. Add at least 50 parts of water before introducing product.

FRUIT, NUT & VINE CROPS: Including (but not limited to) almonds, hazelnuts, grapes, pecans and walnuts. Apply 1 - 4 quarts per acre. NOTE: Before applying to pome or stone fruit, consult your qualified and licensed consultant for recommendations.

FIELD AND VEGETABLE CROPS: Apply 1 - 4 quarts per acre.

GRAIN CROPS: Apply 2 - 4 quarts per acre. at 3-4 leaf stage.

SPRINKLER IRRIGATION: Apply 1 - 4 quarts per acre. with irrigation water. Use check valve to prevent back flow into water system

SOIL APPLICATION RATES: Use at least 20 parts water to 1 part ORION fertilizer. Do not apply directly to seeds unless it has been determined/tested by the consultant or grower that it is not harmful or injurious to the seed.
