Cropex Dolomite Granules are a calcium and magnesium-rich soil amendment designed to improve acidic soils and support balanced crop nutrition. Dolomite granular form makes field application easier, cleaner, and more uniform compared to loose powder, helping farmers manage soil correction more conveniently. By supplying essential secondary nutrients like calcium and magnesium, Dolomite Granules help improve root-zone conditions, nutrient availability, and soil structure. Soil test based use supports better soil pH balance in acidic fields, which in turn improves fertilizer efficiency and crop response. Dolomite Granules also helps strengthen root activity, improve moisture retention, and create a more favorable environment for crop growth.

Stage Specific Benefits
- •Land preparation stage: Helps correct acidic soil conditions and improves the availability of nutrients before sowing or transplanting.
- •Early crop establishment stage: Supplies calcium and magnesium to support root growth, better seedling establishment, and stronger early crop development.
- •Active vegetative growth stage: Improves nutrient uptake efficiency and supports healthier foliage, stem strength, and balanced crop growth.
- •Flowering to yield development stage: Helps maintain nutrient balance in the root zone, supporting better crop performance, quality, and productivity.
Composition
- •CaCO3: 50-55%
- •MgCO3: 32-37%
Dosage & Method of Application
- 1.General soil application: 100–200 kg per acre for regular soil conditioning, depending on soil condition.
- 2.Acidic soils / pH correction: Higher doses may be required based on soil test results and severity of soil acidity.
- 3.Broadcast uniformly over the field during land preparation and incorporate into the topsoil before sowing or planting. In orchards and perennial crops, apply around the root zone and mix lightly into the soil.
Crop-Product Advisory
- 1.Soil condition dependency: Best suited for acidic soils, calcium and magnesium-deficient soils, and fields showing poor fertilizer response due to nutrient lock-up.
- 2.Recommended use stage: Most effective when applied during land preparation or before planting so the granules can react with the soil and improve root-zone conditions.
- 3.Recommended combination: Can be used along with organic manures, compost, humic substances, and balanced NPK nutrition programs for better soil conditioning and nutrient-use efficiency.
- 4.Standard practice to follow: Prefer application based on soil pH and calcium/magnesium status; incorporate well into moist soil for better activation.
- 5.Precaution: Avoid using excessive quantities without soil assessment, especially in neutral to alkaline soils, as unnecessary liming may disturb nutrient balance.
