120-Day Steady Potassium Nutrition for High Yield, Quality, and Stress-Resilient Crops


NPK 12‑6‑36 120-Day Controlled-Release Fertilizer
Phosphorus Pentoxide (P₂O₅) 6% – promotes early root growth and efficient nutrient uptake.
Potassium Oxide (K₂O) 36% – boosts fruit size, sugar content, color, and stress tolerance.
120-Day Controlled Release – polymer-coated granules provide stable nutrients for up to 120 days, reducing leaching and the need for repeated applications.
NPK 12-6-36 120Day CR Fertilizer Detailed Specifications
Terafon® NPK 12-6-36 Long-Term Controlled-Release Fertilizer (120 Days) is a high-potassium, premium-grade CR NPK fertilizer specifically engineered for crops with elevated potassium demand during flowering, fruiting, and maturation stages. The formulation supports high yield, superior crop quality, and improved stress tolerance, making it ideal for intensive and export-oriented agricultural systems.
The temperature-responsive polymer coating regulates nutrient diffusion based on soil conditions, ensuring consistent nutrient availability, enhanced nutrient use efficiency (NUE), and environmentally responsible fertilization.

Key Features & Agronomic Benefits
1. High-Potassium Formula for Quality Enhancement
- The elevated K₂O content (36%) supports fruit size, firmness, color, sugar content (Brix), and shelf life—critical for fruits, vegetables, and cash crops targeting premium markets.
2. Long-Term Precision Nutrient Release (120 Days)
- Polymer-coated granules synchronize nutrient release with plant uptake patterns over an extended period, ensuring stable nutrition from early growth through harvest.
3. Improved Nutrient Use Efficiency
- Significantly reduces potassium leaching and nitrogen losses compared with conventional fertilizers, improving fertilizer efficiency while protecting soil and water resources.
4. Reduced Application Frequency
- A single application can sustain crops for up to four months, lowering labor costs, machinery use, and overall fertilizer management complexity.
Application & Usage Guidelines
Application Methods
- Pre-Plant Broadcasting: Apply evenly before planting and incorporate into soil
- Band or Row Placement: Position near the root zone for maximum nutrient uptake
Soil Incorporation: Suitable for orchards, raised beds, nursery substrates, and containers
Best Practices
- Adjust application rates according to soil analysis and crop nutrient demand
- Apply before irrigation or rainfall to activate controlled nutrient release
- Avoid mixing with incompatible agrochemicals
Supplemental fertilization during the 120-day period is generally unnecessary
Recommended Crops
- Fruit crops (citrus, grapes, berries, bananas, apples)
- Vegetables with high potassium demand (tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, potatoes)
- Orchard trees and perennial plantations
- Export-oriented horticultural crops
Turfgrass and ornamental plants requiring enhanced color and stress tolerance
Packaging & Storage
- Packaging Options: 25 kg & 50 kg woven PP bags; 500–1,000 kg jumbo bags.
- Storage Conditions: Cool, dry, ventilated warehouse; protect from moisture and direct sunlight.
Shelf Life: Anti-caking treated for long-term storage and handling stability.
