Understanding the interaction between soil type and fertilizer choice is essential for achieving high crop yields. Yarafert offers a range of fertilizer solutions designed to address the needs of various soil textures. Below, we explore how Yarafert’s products enhance crop performance across different soil types, focusing on their application in sandy, clay, and loam soils.
Matching Yarafert Products to Different Soil Conditions
Each soil type requires a tailored fertilization approach. Here’s how Yarafert’s products align with different soil conditions for optimal results:
- Sandy Soil
- High porosity, meaning nutrients are easily leached.
- Requires fertilizers that retain moisture and reduce nutrient loss.
- Clay Soil
- Dense structure, holds nutrients well but has drainage issues.
- Needs fertilizers that improve aeration and enhance nutrient availability.
- Loam Soil
- Balanced texture with good nutrient retention and drainage.
- Fertilizers should aim to sustain this balance and promote steady nutrient release.
How Yarafert Products Work in Sandy, Clay, and Loam Soils
The efficacy of Yarafert products in various soil types is based on their chemical composition and nutrient release mechanisms. Below, we discuss how key products from Yarafert enhance soil conditions and nutrient uptake across these soil types:
Sandy Soil Applications
In sandy soils, nutrients are prone to rapid leaching. Yarafert’s Biofast and Ugarit products are effective here due to their balanced nutrient profiles and addition of organic matter, which improves moisture retention.
- Biofast
- Contains humic and fulvic acids (24% each) that increase soil organic matter, enhancing water-holding capacity.
- Formula: C?H?NO? (Humic Acid), C?H?O? (Fulvic Acid)

- Ugarit 10-0-5+ 70% Organic Matter (Humic+Fulvic)
- Adds organic matter to improve water retention in sandy soil.
- With 10% nitrogen, 5% potassium, and high organic content, it supports gradual nutrient release.

Clay Soil Applications
In clay soils, nutrient retention is strong, but compaction often limits root growth. Yarafert’s Calcimag and Ugarit K-T-S 25 are particularly beneficial here due to their calcium and sulfur content, which improve soil structure and aeration.
- CALCIMAG
- Contains 22% calcium (CaO) and 3% magnesium, enhancing soil porosity and reducing compaction.
- Formula: CaO + MgO ? CaMgO?

- Ugarit K-T-S 25
- Potassium and sulfur enhance nutrient uptake while improving drainage in clay-heavy soils.

Loam Soil Applications
Loam soils require balanced fertilization to maintain their ideal texture and nutrient levels. Yarafert’s NPK fertilizers and trace element products are well-suited for loam, promoting even nutrient distribution and long-term productivity.
- Ugarit 27-27-27 + TE (Trace Element)
- Provides an even balance of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium (27% each), ideal for maintaining loam soil health.
- Trace elements support crop growth across different stages, ensuring that nutrient levels remain steady.

- Trials show an average 20% increase in yield compared to non-treated fields.
- Table:
Fertilizer | Yield Increase | Soil Type | Observations |
Biofast | 20% | Sandy | Enhanced moisture retention, reduced leaching |
Yield Stability with Calcimag in Clay Soil- Calcimag improved root penetration and nutrient access, leading to healthier plants.
- Showed a 15% reduction in soil compaction, increasing crop yield by 18%.
- Formula: CaCO? + CO? + H?O ? Ca(HCO?)?
- Consistent Yields with Ugarit 27-27-27 + TE in Loam Soil
- Balanced nutrient release ensured stable plant growth throughout the season.
- Graph:
- A graph here would depict growth rates in loam soil treated with Ugarit 27-27-27 compared to untreated loam.

Maximizing Fertilizer Efficiency Across Soil Textures
To optimize the application of Yarafert fertilizers, it is important to consider timing, amount, and method of application. Here’s how different Yarafert fertilizers perform when applied efficiently:
- Optimal Application Timing
- Sandy Soil: Apply early in the season to prevent nutrient loss due to leaching.
- Clay Soil: Mid-season applications ensure nutrients are available when plants need them most.
- Loam Soil: Split applications at different growth stages for consistent nutrition.
- Adjusting Application Rates
- In sandy soil, use a slightly higher rate of organic-based fertilizers to counter nutrient loss.
- For clay, moderate amounts are effective due to high nutrient retention.
- Loam soil requires standard application rates, as it naturally holds nutrients well.

Adjusting Yarafert Applications for Optimal Yield
Crop yields vary by soil type and crop needs. By adjusting Yarafert applications to match soil requirements, farmers can maximize efficiency and output.
Key Adjustments for High Yields
Here are tailored recommendations to optimize yield with Yarafert products:
- Sandy Soil
- Increase the frequency of application to offset nutrient leaching.
- Use high-organic fertilizers like Ugarit 10-0-5 to improve soil structure.
- Clay Soil
- Choose products with calcium and sulfur, such as Calcimag, to reduce compaction.
- Apply lower doses more frequently to prevent nutrient buildup.
- Loam Soil
- Apply balanced NPK fertilizers at key growth stages to maintain nutrient balance.
- Trace element additions, such as Ugarit 40-10-10, support crop health.

Chemical Principles Supporting Yarafert Fertilizers
Yarafert’s fertilizers employ various scientific principles to enhance soil and crop health. Here are a few key principles at work:
- Chelation in Trace Elements
- Chelation ensures that trace elements are more available to plants, particularly in challenging soil types.
- Example: Chelated iron (Fe-EDTA) enhances iron uptake in high-pH sandy soils.
- Humic and Fulvic Acids for Nutrient Retention
- Humic and fulvic acids in Biofast improve water retention and soil structure, essential in sandy soils.
- Formula: C?H?NO? and C?H?O? for humic and fulvic acids, respectively.
- Calcium’s Role in Soil Structure
- Calcium from Calcimag interacts with clay particles, helping to break down compaction and improve root penetration.
