More about Cropkare
Cropkare is a pure ash poultry manure. As well as its primary ingredients of phosphate and potash, Cropkare contains highly beneficial levels of other natural, plant nutrients, including sulphur and magnesium. It is 100% natural and is very eco-friendly.
Another significant advantage of Cropkare – especially in this current economic climate – is that it is cost effective. Compared to conventional PK fertilisers, the use of Cropkare is a very competively priced natural alternative fertilizer.
Shorts Group is your official Cropkare distributor and would be more than happy to discuss the benefits and value of Cropkare with you.
