Like every Osmocote innovation, Osmocote 5 has undergone rigorous testing in various locations across the globe prior to its introduction. ICL conducted multiple field trials in Europe and even Australia. The trials were carried out in different ways, climatic conditions, using different crops, potting mixtures, longevities, application methods and rates. Independent European research stations and demo trials at growers have validated the results gathered in the trials at our own field-trial stations.
Everyone agrees: Osmocote 5 offers big impact!
Hans Orths, Australia
Hans Orths of Orths Nursery decided to trial Osmocote 5 in four different Gardenia varieties. Hans: "We were keen to see if we could gain any benefits from Osmocote 5." Hans noticed the first differences within 8 weeks, but the real difference became visible about six months into the trial.
Tried, tested and approved
Franco Maimone, Italy
Oleander nursery Vivai del Mela on Sicily achieves uniformity and quality thanks to advanced technologies and fertilizers. Co-owner and production manager Franco Maimone was keen to trial Osmocote 5. Franco: "This is a chance for us to apply less fertilizer and still maintain high quality plants."
Thorsten Lüers, Germany
Lüers nursery produces around 1.6 million Calluna Vulgaris of 40 varieties each year. As one of their main crops, it was the obvious choice for the Osmocote 5 trial. Thorsten Lüers: "Two extreme rainfall events this summer, just two weeks apart, were a major stress test for the Osmocote 5 trial."
