How Optimise works

Fine lime pellets are customisable, 100% utilised and spread evenly

The finer the lime, the more immediate the reaction in the soil. The smaller the particular size, the greater the surface area, and the quicker the effect on pH and soil structure.

However, the fine particles are difficult to spread and prone to drift. Optimise is 100% ultra-fine lime, pulverised to an average of 70 microns, then pressed into an all-in-one pellet along with the nutrients your soil needs. We only use natural, biologically friendly products.

Calcium is critical for improving aeration, water filtration, and allowing roots to penetrate deeper into the soil. Soil biology responds to good soil structure and air spaces, active soil microbes reuse and recycle plant waste, and mean fewer chemicals are necessary.

We can combine the following nutrients and natural fertilisers into a pellet – talk to us about the perfect blend for your soil.

Lime for calcium and soil pH
Guano P for energy and photosynthesis
Sulphur for protein and enzyme production
Magnesium for chlorophyll production and to assist P uptake

Humates a ready carbon source and feeds soil biology
Potassium for carbohydrate movement and water efficiency
Biological stimulants for recycling nutrients and activating soil life

Easy to use, transport

and spread

Optimise is used by pastoral, arable, horticultural and viticultural operations throughout NZ. You won’t need any special equipment. Optimise is compatible with conventional ground spreading and drilling equipment. And is ideal for spreading by plane or helicopter.

DIY Optimise applications are simple. Use existing tow-behind spreading equipment, just like you would apply other high analysis fertilisers, and reduce the heavy traffic burden of bulk trucks.

Some clients find multiple custom blends are the best way to satisfy their soil’s needs.

Minimum order 500kg. Contact your local farm merchant for 25kg bags.
