Calcium Nitrate Fertilizer
Fruit tree research and grower experience
attest to the growth, yield and quality bene
fits achieved with Calcium Nitrate fertilizer
(15.5-0-0-19 Ca).
Faster growth, early production:
nitrate nitrogen is the choice
Calcium Nitrate supplies nitrate nitrogen
and 19% water-soluble calcium; a proven
combination of nutrients for optimum
orchard production.
For example, USDA work by Shear and
Faust 1 describes the effects of various nitro
gen sources on apple trees. “...Growth was
greatly inhibited by NH, (ammonium), as
compared to nitrate applications.” It was
also noted, “...depending on various cul
tural factors...ammonium-N applied to

Calcium requirement of apple trees
is unbelievably high
In another study 2 , the need for calcium in
apples was shown. “...The above-ground
woody portion of a 3 5-year-old tree con
tained 5.6 pounds of calcium. This was
more than the content of N.P.K. and Mg
combined. And, in terms of crop health
“...an adequate level of calcium in apple
fruit can reduce the incidence of fruit
disorders.”
From early growth through years of
heavy yields, Calcium Nitrate fertilizer is
the one to start with, the one to stay with!
As with any fertilizer application, consult
your extension office or other advisory serv
ice for recommended practice that meets
local crop and soil conditions.
