The Power Of Calcium + Silicon
Wollastonite provides a unique combination of available nutrients essential to maintaining quality and stress tolerance during plant growth.
Silicon
Wollastonite provides readily available silicon to crops. Many plants accumulate more silicon than phosphorus, yet soil silicon levels vary widely.
Silicon acts as nature’s “crop insurance” with fertilized crops consistently showing greater tolerance to pests, diseases, drought, and temperature extremes.
Replace lime with wollastonite to maximize silicon’s potential.
Calcium
Our wollastonite maximizes nutrient release and carbon capture – a win-win for agriculture and climate.
Wollastonite is an excellent lime alternative with high-value nutrients per metric tonne:
570 lb calcium (CaO)
1200 lb silicon (SiO2)
140 lb magnesium (MgO)
Key Benefits:
- 60-65% CCE from high calcium and magnesium
- Abundant silicon – nature’s crop insurance nutrient
- Slow-release calcium over 2-3 years
