Rikka
Rikka, a revolutionary fertilizer What is the secret to its amazing effects?

Secrets of the effects

  • The surprising absorption efficiency of phosphoric acid is realized by the effect of the surface-active agent:
    the absorption efficiency is more than ten times higher than ordinary phosphoric acid fertilizers.

    Smooth absorption of phosphoric acid

    • Ordinary fertilizer
      Ordinary fertilizers seldom enter small absorption openings, such as the stomas on leaves and osmosis membranes, due to large friction between nutrients and the openings.
    • Rikka
      Nutrients in Rikka are coated with a surface-active agent. Therefore, the nutrients are efficiently absorbed through the small stomas on leaves and osmosis membranes and carried into the bodies of plants.
  • Phosphoric acid in soil is absorbed.

    • Ordinary fertilizer
      In ordinary phosphoric acid fertilizers, 62% of the phosphoric acid combines with iron and aluminum in soil only for 1 minute, and only a small fraction of it is absorbed by plants.
    • Rikka
      Thanks to the effect of the surface-active agent, Rikka rips apart the phosphoric acid combined with iron and aluminum in soil, and almost 100% of the phosphoric acid is absorbed by plants.

Effects

  1. (1)Improved flavor

    Sugar in the crops increases by at least several degrees when Rikka is used. There is an example where the sugar content of citrus increased by seven degrees,while the degree of increase varies depending on the crops. Rikka’s effect of increasing sugar is incomparable to other fertilizers. Rikka also delivers mild acidity, which is considered “the secret of creating repeat customers” by increasing the succinic acid, which produces the flavor, and decreasing the citric acid.

    Example of Gokuwase Unshu Mikan(Citrus unshu for early harvesting)in Nagasaki
    Ratio of crops with sugar content of 10 degrees or higher
  2. (2)Promotion of coloration

    When consumer select produce, the most important factors are color and luster. Use of Rikka improves the luster of the fruit skins and makes them shinier. Farmers can proudly deliver great beauty and taste to consumers.

  3. (3)Increase in yield

    A good balance of phosphoric acid and nitrogen increases the yield by about 30% to 50% compared to before using Rikka. The yield doubled in some cases. This is because Rikka simply increases the yield, but with its power to improve the whole plant, the yield becomes uniform and stable. Rikka contributes significantly to the increase and stability of yields.

  4. (4)Improve shape
    One of the important factors in producing beautifully shaped flowers and fruit is the absorption balance of nitrogen and phosphoric acid. Little phosphoric acid is absorbed from ordinary fertilizers, resulting in an imbalance of nitrogen and phosphoric acid absorption and increasing in the effect of nitrogen. Such condition reduces the amount of pollen and makes it difficult to create beautifully shaped flowers. With Rikka, however, plants efficiently absorb phosphoric acid to create a good balance with nitrogen, enabling the production of better flowers and ovaries.
  5. (5)Reduction of rotten pieces
    One of the important factors in producing beautifully shaped flowers and fruit is the balance of nitrogen and phosphoric acid absorption. Little phosphoric acid is absorbed from ordinary fertilizers, resulting in an imbalance of nitrogen and phosphoric acid absorption and increasing the effect of nitrogen. Such condition reduces the amount of pollen and makes it difficult to create beautifully shaped flowers. With Rikka, however, plants efficiently absorb phosphoric acid to create a good balance with nitrogen, enabling the production of better flowers and ovaries.
  6. (6)Earlier transition period of vegetative growth and reproductive growth

    Branches and roots grow using the efficiently absorbed phosphoric acid. The transition period between vegetative growth during which leaves grow larger and reproductive growth in which flowers and fruits grow is earlier. Plants begin to produce fruit earlier due to this effect, allowing farmers to harvest earlier and control the timing of shipping.
