HERGBAGREEN^® is globally the first working-proofed Calcium foliar plant nutrition. With the patented Tribo Mechanical Activation (TMA) the calcite is crashed into nano particles, most as small as 0.1 μm. This is much less than the size of a leafs pore opening (ostiole). So, HERBAGREEN^® can enter directly into the leave.

The benefits of HERBAGREEN^® once inside the leave can be attributed to the two decomposition products that emerge and feed the plant: carbondioxide (CO2) and calcium oxide (CaO). HERBAGREEN^® starts now immediately as an efficient photosynthetic activator.

The low CO2 content of normal air (0.04 vol.%) means that most cultivated plants fail to achieve an optimum level of photosynthesis. Assuming that temperature conditions are favourable and there is a sufficient supply of nutrients and water, the maximum level of photosynthesis is achieved at around 0.1 vol.% CO2.

The use of the HERBAGREEN^® can thus improve the photosynthesis performance. In addition, the effect is further enhanced by the micro-nutrients contained in HERBAGREEN^®.
