Turn challenges into opportunities when you choose our innovative fertiliser products and customised service for equine farming in New Zealand

Because we’ve spent more than two decades gaining experience with NZ’s largest and most successful equine farms, we know that growing animal-safe, quality pasture for your equine farm can be tricky. Horse health relies on pasture that grows steadily and includes horse-essential trace elements.

We’re experts in products that help you achieve these goals.

Specialist advice for larger equine farms

Our equine specialist, Arthur Payze, has advised NZ’s largest and most successful equine farms on soil nutrition and equine fertiliser solutions for more than 20 years. Experience is everything when it comes to knowing how to grow the best pasture.

KingPhos

A granulated, controlled release, dicalcic phosphate that has a liming effect. Perfect for soils like allophanic or ash soils that retain phosphates and are low on the pH scale (<6).
Also safer for grazing animals susceptible to fluorosis since the manufacturing process for dicalcic phosphate reduces the flouride found in many phosphate fertilisers.
