AgroBest is an Australian manufacturer with a wide range of crop protection and liquid fertiliser products to help keep your olive trees healthy and productive. This guide gives you a practical overview of the AgroBest range available through The Olive Centre and how they can fit into your nutritional grove program across the season. We’ll walk through foliar feeds, soil conditioners, pest and disease support products, spray adjuvants and biostimulants, explaining when to use, and how to help with common olive problems. Whether you’re dealing with nutritional needs or tired trees that just aren’t performing, this guide is designed to help you quickly match the right AgroBest product to the needs of your grove.  A soil and leaf analysis are recommended to narrow down the correct product(s).

Foliar Nutrition Products (NPK & Trace Elements) 

Foliar nutrition is critical for addressing immediate nutrient needs and boosting olive tree productivity. AgroBest offers several NPK foliar fertilisers and trace element sprays designed for quick uptake through leaves. These products provide balanced macronutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium) often enhanced with micronutrients or biostimulants to improve efficacy.

• QuickStart - A fully soluble NPK liquid fertiliser with added trace elements, formulated to support flowering and fruiting stages. QuickStart delivers a blend of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium along with micronutrients to ensure olive trees have the nutrition needed for abundant bloom and fruit set. It’s typically applied as a foliar spray pre- and post-bloom. (Available in 20L, 200L, and 1000L sizes.)

• Beyond Foliar - A balanced N-P-K foliar feed enriched with seaweed extract and micronutrients, aimed at improving fruit fill, tree vigour, and overall yield and quality. This liquid concentrate supplies a moderate NPK ratio along with natural growth promotants from seaweed. Olive growers use Beyond Foliar after fruit set to enhance olive size, colour, and flavour development. (Common pack sizes: 20L, 200L)

• Plant Food - A liquid NPK concentrate tailored as a young plant starter fertiliser. With a gentle, balanced nutrient profile, Plant Food encourages healthy early growth in newly planted olive trees or nursery stock. It ensures seedlings and young groves establish strong roots and foliage without the risk of burn. (Available in 5L, 20L, etc.)
  

• Agro NK - A highly available liquid combination of nitrogen, potassium, and phosphorus designed for rapid uptake. Agro NK delivers these macronutrients in readily absorbed forms, making it ideal for mid-season foliar feeding when olive trees demand extra nitrogen (for canopy growth) and potassium (for fruit development). Growers apply Agro NK to correct general nutrient deficiencies quickly and to sustain growth during critical periods. (Available in 20L, 200L, 1000L) 
• AgroCal N - A specialty foliar nutrient focusing on calcium and nitrogen for crops with high Ca demand (like olives during pit hardening). Calcium is vital for cell wall strength and fruit firmness, while nitrogen fuels vegetative growth. AgroCal N provides a chelated calcium source together with nitrogen to address Ca deficiencies in olive foliage or developing fruit, improving tissue strength and reducing problems like tip burn or fruit drop. (Available in multiple sizes, e.g. 20L, 200L)
  

• High PK - A liquid phosphorus and potassium booster formulated to stimulate flowering and fruit set in olives. High PK supplies a surge of P and K right when olive trees transition to the reproductive phase, promoting abundant flowers and supporting early fruit development. It’s typically sprayed at pre-bloom and again during fruit sizing. Adequate phosphorus ensures strong bloom and root support, while potassium enhances flowering, fruit retention, and oil synthesis in olives. (Available in 20L, 200L) 

• Green N42 - A 42% nitrogen foliar fertiliser for fast correction of nitrogen deficiency and to drive vigorous canopy growth. Green N42 is a high-analysis N solution containing urea, ammonium, and nitrate forms of nitrogen for both immediate and sustained uptake. This multi-form formulation ensures rapid greening of yellowed olive leaves and prolonged feeding to support extended vegetative growth. Growers use Green N42 in spring or after heavy rain leaching to restore N levels, resulting in lush foliage and improved shoot growth in high-yield groves. (Offered in 20L drums, 200L drums, and 1000L IBCs)

• Green N32 + Humic - A high-analysis nitrogen (32%) fertiliser blended with humic acids. This product not only provides a quick nitrogen supply but also incorporates organic humic substances to improve soil nutrient retention and microbial activity. Foliar or fertigated use of Green N32+Humic gives the dual benefit of boosting immediate growth while also enhancing soil health and nutrient efficiency. It’s especially useful in olive orchards on sandy or low-organic-matter soils, where humics aid in holding nitrogen and other nutrients in the root zone. (Available in 20L, 200L, 1000L)

• Extra Cal - A unique calcium supplement with cytokinin (plant hormone) carrier. Extra Cal delivers calcium in an organically complexed form along with natural cytokinins that help drive calcium into fruit and leaf tissues. This foliar spray is used to correct calcium deficiencies (e.g. preventing pitless olives or soft fruit) and to improve fruit firmness. The cytokinin component stimulates cellular activity and nutrient mobilisation, so Extra Cal is ideal during olive fruit sizing - ensuring better calcium uptake into developing olives for stronger skin and reduced incidence of disorders. (Typically available in 5L, 20L quantities.) 
• Trace Element Sprays (AgroBest AgroDex Range) - In addition to NPK feeds, AgroBest provides a full suite of micronutrient foliar sprays under the AgroDex line. These are chelated trace element solutions that address specific nutrient deficiencies quickly via foliar application. For example, AgroDex Boron is a high-analysis boron (B) formula complexed with organic acids for efficient uptake, used at flowering to improve pollen viability, fruit set, and aid calcium mobility in olives. AgroDex CaB combines calcium with boron and nitrogen to support fruit quality, shoot growth, and reproductive development - helpful in preventing calcium-related fruit drop and improving olive size. There are also single-element sprays like AgroDex Fe (EDTA-chelated iron) to correct iron chlorosis and boost chlorophyll production for greener leaves, AgroDex Mg for magnesium deficiency to improve photosynthesis and leaf colour, AgroDex Mn for manganese needs (critical for enzyme activation and carbohydrate production), and AgroDex Moly (molybdenum with phosphorus) to enhance nitrogen conversion and protein synthesis in the tree. For potassium, growers can choose AgroDex K-Fill, a clear non-staining potassium solution that enhances fruit colour, size and uniform ripening, or the concentrated AgroDex K35 / K45 formulas, which supply high K with organic acids to boost fruit sweetness, oil content, and crop finishing. These trace element products are typically used as foliar sprays during periods of known deficiency or high demand (e.g. postflowering for boron, summer for magnesium, etc.). All are available in convenient liquid form (usually 20L drums up to 200L and 1000L for large operations).  This range is great for dealing with specific deficiencies.

Many of the foliar nutrient products above are compatible for tank-mixing with each other or with pest control sprays, allowing olive growers to address multiple needs in one pass. By using AgroBest’s foliar nutrition range, growers can rapidly correct nutrient shortfalls and fine-tune the olive tree’s diet throughout the season, leading to healthier canopies, improved flowering/fruiting, and ultimately better yields.

Soil Conditioners & Soil-Applied Fertilisers 

Healthy soil is the foundation of productive olive groves. AgroBest offers products that improve soil fertility, structure, and microbiology - ensuring roots have access to nutrients and water. These soil conditioners and granular/liquid fertilisers are applied to the soil (via drench, fertigation, or banding) rather than sprayed on foliage. 

• Kickstart Bio 25 - A soil-applied NPK fertiliser with added trace elements and humic compounds. Kickstart Bio 25 is a humic-based starter fertiliser formulated to promote robust root development and early crop growth when establishing orchards or during spring flush. It provides a balanced mix of nutrients (including nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and micros) in a carbon-rich humate matrix, which improves nutrient uptake and soil structure. Olive growers often use Kickstart at planting or at the start of the season to “kick start” root systems - the humic acids enhance nutrient availability and stimulate soil microbial activity, leading to stronger root biomass and better early vigour. (Available in granular or liquid form; common sizes 20L liquid or 25kg bags if granular.)

• GroMate 5-5-5 - An organic liquid fertiliser (N-P-K 5-5-5) designed for building soil health and general crop nutrition. GroMate’s balanced 5-5-5 analysis comes entirely from organic inputs, making it ideal for improving soil fertility naturally. It contributes organic matter, feeds soil microbes, and releases nutrients slowly to the olive trees’ roots. Regular applications of GroMate can improve soil structure and root strength over time. This product suits groves aiming for organic certification or simply looking to enhance soil carbon and biological activity. It’s often applied via fertigation or as a soil drench around the root zone. (BFA certified organic; available in 20L, 200L, 1000L IBC.) 

• Fish Emulsion - A classic organic bio-stimulant fertiliser made from fish extracts, rich in nitrogen, phosphorus, trace elements, amino acids, and oils. AgroBest’s Fish Emulsion is formulated to boost soil microbial life and provide a gentle nutrient release to crops. In olives, fish emulsion can be applied to the soil to feed beneficial microbes and improve nutrient cycling, or even foliar-sprayed at low concentrations as a mild feed. Growers appreciate that it improves soil tilth and root health while also supplying minor nutrients naturally. Fish Emulsion is especially useful for correcting general nutrient deficiencies in an organic-friendly way and for mitigating transplant shock in young trees. (Available in 5L, 20L, 200L; has an organic certification.) 

• CalMate - A humic acid solution designed to be compatible with calcium fertilisers. CalMate is essentially a soil conditioner that can be combined with calcium sources (like lime or gypsum, or liquid Ca) to enhance calcium availability and uptake by plants. When olive orchards have calcareous soils or when applying calcium, adding CalMate helps chelate the calcium, keeping it soluble. This results in better Ca absorption by olive roots or leaves and can improve the efficiency of calcium fertilisation. CalMate also contributes humic substances that improve overall nutrient efficiency and bolster plant resilience under stress. Olive growers might add CalMate to their fertigation mix, especially if tissue tests show calcium deficiency or if they want to ensure maximum benefit from a foliar Ca spray (the humic acid prevents tie-up and enhances translocation). (Liquid concentrate; typical size 20L.)

• Soil pH & Structure Amendments: While not a separate product per se in the AgroBest range, it’s worth noting that some AgroBest nutritionals assist indirectly with soil structure. For example, CarboCal (though often foliar) can also be applied via drip irrigation; its organic acid-rich formulation can help flocculate soil particles and improve calcium levels in the root zone. CarboCal supplies plant-available calcium coupled with over 50 organic acids, which not only feed microbes but can help open up clay soils. Improved calcium in soil leads to better soil aggregation and drainage - crucial for olives, which don’t like waterlogging. Additionally, Green N32 + Humic (mentioned earlier) contributes humic matter that conditions the soil and reduces nitrogen leaching. In summary, many of AgroBest’s products have dual roles, acting as both fertilisers and soil conditioners due to their organic components. 

Using these soil-oriented products, olive growers can address issues like poor soil fertility, low organic matter, or imbalanced nutrients in the root zone. For instance, if an olive grove is suffering from nutrient lock-up or weak root growth, a combination of humic-enriched Kickstart and organic GroMate can rebuild soil life. If soil calcium or pH is an issue, products like CarboCal can supply calcium in a plant-accessible form that strengthens soil and trees alike. Healthier soil translates to stronger, more resilient olive trees with better uptake of nutrients and water. 

Control Aids 

While AgroBest’s focus is on nutrition, some of its products also play a role in crop protection - either by directly deterring stresses or by strengthening the plant against pests and diseases. Olive growers face challenges such as black scale insects, fungal diseases like peacock spot and anthracnose, as well as environmental stresses (frost, heat) that can predispose trees to problems. AgroBest products can be part of an integrated strategy to tackle these issues.

• Envy Frost & Sunburn Protectant - A unique anti-transpirant spray that creates a protective barrier on plant surfaces. Envy is formulated with natural compounds (e.g. pine resin) that shield crops from frost, heat, and sunburn stress by reducing transpiration and forming a micro-film on leaves and fruit. In olives, late spring frosts or extreme summer heat can damage developing fruit and foliage; applying Envy beforehand helps mitigate this. For example, spraying Envy before a forecasted frost can significantly reduce ice nucleation on olive buds and leaves, preventing frost burn. It’s equally useful ahead of heatwaves to minimise sunscald on olive fruit or desiccation of leaves. While not a pesticide, Envy falls under crop protection because a less-stressed tree is more resistant to pests and disease. (This product is used in low concentrations - e.g. 1:15 or as directed - and comes in small volumes like 1L or 5L that can treat large areas given the high dilution.)

• Spraytech OIL (Organic Adjuvant) - Primarily an adjuvant (see next section), Spraytech Oil is a vegetable oil-based spraying oil that may also have some effect for  improving pesticide efficacy. Spraytech OIL is a certified organic non-ionic oil.  Additionally, if chemical control is needed (for example, mixing an insect growth regulator for scale), adding Spraytech OIL improves that insecticide’s coverage, duration, uptake, and rainfastness. This means better pest knockdown with lower risk of spray drift. In short, Spraytech OIL can assist  with spray efficacy to boost the performance of fungicide or insecticide sprays application targeting olive diseases/pests.

• Nutritional Strengthening for Disease Resistance - A key strategy in disease management is ensuring the olive tree has sufficient nutrients to maintain strong defensive structures. Several AgroBest products indirectly help with diseases like anthracnose or peacock spot by fortifying the plant. For instance, CarboCal (the calcium organic supplement) markedly improves cell wall strength and fruit robustness. Adequate calcium in plant tissues leads to stronger cell walls, greater resistance to disease and insect attack, and reduced post-harvest damage. By regularly using CarboCal or the combined Ca-B sprays (AgroDex CaB), growers can reduce incidences of anthracnose on fruit - the pathogen finds it harder to penetrate calcium-rich, sturdy fruit skin. Calcium also helps minimise olive fruit cracking and bruising, which in turn lowers infection entry points. Another example: Fuze Copper is AgroBest’s EDTA-chelated copper micronutrient spray for correcting copper deficiency. While its main role is to fix pale leaves or dieback due to a lack of copper, it can also contribute to disease management. Copper is a well-known fungicidal element; ensuring olives have sufficient copper in their tissues can bolster their natural defence against fungal diseases like Peacock Spot (leaf fungus) or Cercospora. Growers might use Fuze Copper foliar sprays post-harvest or in spring - not only to green up the foliage but also as part of their regime to keep fungal diseases at bay (complementing any copper-based protectant sprays they may use). In general, the MultiTrace products, such as Titan (with zinc, iron, copper, etc.) help “heal” a nutritionally stressed tree; a healthier olive tree will better resist pest infestations and disease outbreaks.

It’s important to note that AgroBest does not produce synthetic pesticides or fungicides - instead, their offerings focus on prevention and plant strength. For active infestations like a severe black scale attack or an anthracnose epidemic, growers would still use specific registered pesticides (e.g. a petroleum spray or an IGR for scale, or a copper fungicide for anthracnose/fungal issue). However, integrating AgroBest products could mean fewer such interventions are needed. By using nutritionals and protectants like Envy and Spraytech Oil proactively, olive growers can reduce stress and pest pressure on their groves. This integrated approach leads to a more sustainable pest and disease management, leveraging plant health to fight off challenges naturally.   Always test product compatibility before mixing.

Adjuvants and Spray Aids 

Adjuvants are “helper” products that improve the performance of agrochemical sprays - ensuring that nutrients or pesticides stick  as intended. AgroBest’s adjuvants are especially valuable in olive production, where the undersides of leaves and the waxy surfaces of olive foliage can make spray coverage difficult. Using the right adjuvant means more of your spray actually reaches the target and stays there, rather than bouncing off or drifting away. Two key adjuvant products in the AgroBest range are: 

• Spraytech OIL - This was mentioned earlier for pest control, but as an adjuvant, it’s a game-changer for spray applications. Spraytech OIL is an organic, non-ionic surfactant/oil blend derived from vegetable oil, approved for organic use. It has a unique mode of action: it encapsulates spray droplets and pesticide molecules, reducing their evaporation and protecting them from degradation (e.g. by UV light). For olive growers, this means when you mix Spraytech OIL into your fungicide, insecticide, or foliar feed tank, you get better adhesion of the spray to olive leaves (which are notoriously slick). It greatly minimises drift and off-target losses by reducing fine droplet formation. It also buffers poor-quality water - if your spray water is slightly alkaline or hard, Spraytech OIL helps stabilise the pH and prevents things like phosphates from precipitating. In practical terms, adding 0.5 - 2.0 litres of Spraytech OIL per 1000L tank can improve the coverage of a foliar nutrient spray (ensuring the tree actually absorbs those nutrients) and can enhance pesticide uptake through the leaf cuticle. This adjuvant also confers some rainfastness; sprays are less likely to wash off in the next rain event. And because it’s made from natural oils, it’s softer on beneficial insects than harsh synthetic surfactants. (Spraytech OIL is available in a wide range of sizes - from 0.5L and 1L bottles for backyard growers, up to 20L drums and 200L for large orchards .)

AgroBest AgroChelate - An organic acid concentrate used as a water conditioner, compatibility agent, and nutrient uptake enhancer. Agro “Chelate” is essentially a blend of organic acids and amino acids. When added to a spray tank or fertigation system, it acidifies the solution slightly (bringing pH to a plant-friendly level), chelates micronutrients (preventing them from reacting with other chemicals or getting locked up), and improves the mixing of otherwise incompatible inputs. For example, olive growers often want to tank-mix calcium with phosphorus fertilisers or combine multiple trace elements - this can cause precipitation or antagonism. AgroBest’s Chelate product helps keep such mixes stable and ensures the nutrients remain in a form the plant can absorb. It also acts as a mild biostimulant due to its amino acid content, so foliar feeds with AgroChelate might show improved uptake into leaves. In summary, Agro Chelate is used as an adjuvant to condition spray water (especially if it’s alkaline or hard), to prevent clogging and leaf burn, and to facilitate smooth absorption of nutrients through the leaf cuticle. It’s particularly useful in foliar trace element programs and fertigation systems. (Available in liquid form; e.g. 5L and 20L containers.)

Using adjuvants like these is highly recommended in olive spray programs. Olives have small, waxy leaves and a dense canopy; getting sprays to penetrate and stick can be challenging. By using Spraytech OIL, growers report more uniform coverage and better results from both pest control and foliar feeding efforts (the improved uptake means you might achieve desired results with lower application rates, saving cost). Similarly, with AgroBest’s chelating adjuvant, complex tank mixes become more stable - meaning you can, for instance, mix your zinc, boron, and magnesium foliar feeds with confidence that each will remain available to the tree. In sum, AgroBest adjuvants ensure you get the maximum benefit from every spray, an important consideration given the time and cost involved in spraying an olive grove. 

Biostimulants and Growth Enhancers 

Biostimulants are products that don’t fit the traditional “fertiliser” mould of simply providing N-P-K, but instead contain natural compounds (like seaweed extracts, humic acids, beneficial microbes, etc.) that enhance plant growth and resilience. AgroBest has embraced this technology by offering several biostimulant products that can give olive trees an extra edge - improving root growth, boosting stress tolerance, and increasing nutrient uptake efficiency. These are especially relevant to olives, which often face stresses like drought, high salinity, and poor soils.

• SeaFil - A fermented seaweed extract biostimulant (derived from kelp) that boosts root development, photosynthesis, and overall plant resilience. SeaFil is rich in natural growth hormones (auxins, cytokinins), trace minerals, alginates, and amino acids from seaweed. When applied to olives (either as a foliar spray or via fertigation), it acts as a general tonic - stimulating root growth, improving leaf chlorophyll content, and helping the tree cope with stress. For example, SeaFil is often used after harvest or during spring bud-break to reinvigorate olive trees, as well as in summer to help them tolerate heat and limited water. Fermented seaweed products like this have been shown to trigger defensive mechanisms in plants; an olive tree treated with SeaFil may be better prepared to resist fungal infections or recover from pest damage. The product is 100% natural and can be used in organic groves. (SeaFil comes in powder or liquid concentrate; available in small 1kg packs for making solutions, or liquids in 20L and even bulk 1000L IBC for large farms .) 

• Fulfil - An 85% seaweed ferment biostimulant fortified with plant growth regulators (PGRs). Fulfil is another seaweed-based product, but with a higher concentration of active compounds and possibly added hormones or vitamins to really drive plant responses. In olives, Fulfil is used to enhance root mass, improve flowering and fruit set quality, and increase the tree’s tolerance to stress (like drought or heavy crop load). The auxins in Fulfil encourage new root hair formation (great for nutrient uptake), while cytokinins from the seaweed promote new shoots and can improve fruit size and quality. This product might be applied at key stages like pre-flowering (to improve inflorescence health), at fruit development (to size up olives), or after any stress event (to help recovery). Growers have observed more uniform olive fruit and healthier canopies after using Fulfil, thanks to its stress-mitigating properties. 

• Trapeaze - A seaweed-based trace element and growth promotant formula. Trapeze stands out by combining seaweed extract with essential micronutrients and natural growth stimulants like betaines, auxins, and cytokinins. It’s essentially a biostimulant + foliar feed hybrid, which makes it very convenient. When you spray Trapeze on olive trees, you are both feeding them minor nutrients and triggering growth responses. The product improves crop vigour and yield by addressing any subtle micronutrient deficits (it contains a broad spectrum of trace elements) and simultaneously encouraging the plant’s own growth processes. Olive growers might use Trapeze during mid-season to keep trees in peak condition - the micronutrients prevent hidden deficiencies that could limit yield, and the seaweed hormones keep the trees actively growing and filling fruits. It’s also used post-harvest to help trees store reserves and set up buds for the next season. (Liquid product; usually in 5L, 20L sizes; can be tank-mixed with other foliar sprays.)

• Fish Emulsion & Humate Products - In addition to SeaFil and other seaweed products, recall that Fish Emulsion (described in Soil Conditioners) also acts as a biostimulant. Its content of amino acids and organic matter feeds soil biota and can improve plant immune responses. Many olive growers use fish emulsions as part of biostimulant programs, not just as fertiliser. Similarly, humic acid products like CalMate or the humic component in Kickstart have biostimulant effects - humics can stimulate root enzymes and improve nutrient uptake. These help olive trees, especially in stress conditions (e.g. a humic foliar spray during drought can help leaves retain water and keep stomata functioning). 

By integrating biostimulants into their regime, olive growers can tackle challenges like nutrient-poor soils, irregular bearing, or climate stress in a more natural way. For example, facing a scenario of “off-year” in an alternate-bearing olive grove, one might apply SeaFil or Fulfil to reinvigorate the trees and potentially improve the next bloom. In drought-prone areas or saline irrigation conditions, biostimulants help olive trees maintain growth and yield where they otherwise might suffer. These products do not replace standard NPK fertilisers but rather supplement the nutrition program by ensuring that the plant can make the most of nutrients and overcome growth hurdles. They are akin to vitamins and probiotics for your olive trees - not absolutely required, but when used properly, they often lead to healthier, more productive plants.

Product Sizes & Usage Note: Most AgroBest biostimulants are available in various sizes to suit different scales of operation - from 1-5 L bottles for small groves up to 200 L drums for large farms. They are generally applied at low concentrations (e.g. a few litres per hectare as a foliar spray). It’s important to follow recommended timing - many biostimulants show best results when applied at specific growth stages (like root flush, pre-flowering, or stress events). 

Leaf and Soil Analysis

In Australian agriculture, understanding the hidden nutrients in your soil and plants can make the difference between an average harvest and a thriving one. Leaf and soil analysis give farmers, agronomists, olive growers, and even hobby gardeners a scientific window into their crops’ health. By regularly testing both the soil and the leaves (foliage) of your olive trees or other plants, you gain precise data to fine-tune fertiliser use, correct deficiencies, and boost overall productivity. The result is healthier olive groves, higher yields of quality fruit, and more sustainable soil management - an investment that pays off in both the short and long term through improved crop performance and soil health.

• Maximise yields and quality with targeted nutrition: Soil testing takes the guesswork out of fertilising by revealing exactly which nutrients your soil is lacking (or has in excess). This allows you to apply the right type and amount of fertiliser for optimal growth and olive production, rather than relying on assumptions. With a clear nutrient report in hand, you can boost fruit yields and oil quality by ensuring trees get precisely what they need. For example, a balanced foliar fertiliser like Beyond Foliar can supply a tailored blend of NPK and micronutrients to match those needs. In short, leaf and soil analysis translates into more productive crops and better-quality harvests for you as a grower.
• Detecting hidden deficiencies through leaf analysis: A leaf tissue analysis is essentially a “health check-up” for your olive trees, showing which nutrients the plant has actually absorbed. It can uncover silent nutrient deficiencies or toxicities in the tree that might not be obvious from a soil test alone. For example, a lack of boron or calcium will never be obvious just by looking, yet it may lead to poor flower pollination, low fruit set, or reduced olive oil quality if unaddressed - issues that can be remedied once identified through testing. Applying targeted foliar solutions like AgroDex BORON (a high-analysis liquid boron fertiliser) or CARBOCAL (an organic calcium supplement) can correct these hidden deficiencies. Regular leaf analysis lets you catch these problems early and correct them before they impact your crop’s yield or quality.
  
• Protect soil health and tree vigour for the long run: Soil analysis provides a comprehensive snapshot of your soil’s fertility, measuring pH, salinity, organic matter, and essential macro- and micro-nutrients (like nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron, zinc, and more). This holistic soil health assessment highlights imbalances that can silently undermine tree growth - for instance, excessive salts or the wrong pH can lock up nutrients and damage roots. By testing regularly, you’ll spot issues like nutrient deficiencies or adverse soil conditions in time to fix them. Armed with this information, you can apply targeted soil conditioners to rebalance the field - for instance, using a natural bio-stimulant such as Fish Emulsion to stimulate beneficial soil microbes and improve overall fertility, or a humic-acid concentrate like CalMATE to enhance nutrient uptake and plant resilience under stress. In turn, your olive trees will grow in a balanced environment, leading to stronger roots, better disease resistance, and overall improved vitality in the grove.
  
• Save money and farm more sustainably: Using leaf and soil analysis can actually reduce your input costs while benefiting the environment. The data from these tests helps you avoid wasting money on unnecessary or excessive fertiliser applications. Instead of blanket-feeding your crops (which risks over-fertilising), you can target only the nutrients that are truly needed. For example, AgroBest’s own Olive Leaf Analysis and Total Soil testing services pinpoint specific deficiencies, allowing you to remedy them with a precise input - such as a quick-release foliar blend like Quickstart (a fully soluble NPK fertiliser enhanced with trace elements for flowering and fruiting) - rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. This precision not only saves you dollars, but it also prevents nutrient runoff into waterways and minimises other environmental impacts from over-fertilising. In short, you’ll be fertilising smarter - doing more with less and keeping your land and local ecosystem healthier.
  

In Summary, AgroBest’s range of products on The Olive Centre spans everything from core fertilisers to innovative biostimulants, all geared toward improving plant nutrition and resilience. By grouping products into foliar feeds, soil conditioners, protection aids, adjuvants, and biostimulants, we see that each category addresses different aspects of olive grove management: 

• Foliar Nutrition: ensures quick correction of nutrient deficiencies and fuels key growth phases (with products like QuickStart, Beyond Foliar, High PK, and the AgroDex micronutrient line). This directly tackles issues like yellowing leaves or poor fruit set due to nutrition, and indirectly helps with disease by keeping trees vigorous. 
• Soil Conditioners: improve root environment and long-term soil health (e.g. Kickstart for root establishment, GroMate and Fish Emulsion for organic matter, humic acids for structure). Healthy soil leads to stronger trees that can better withstand pests like root rot or scale infestation. 
  
• Pest & Disease Control Aids: though not pesticides, products like Envy and Spraytech Oil protect olives from abiotic stress and make pest control more effective, while nutritionals like CarboCal and Fuze Copper build the tree’s own defences. 
  
• Adjuvants: ensure every spray counts, reducing waste and enhancing uptake. Spraytech OIL and AgroChelate improve the performance of both AgroBest’s own nutrition products and any other sprays a grower uses, thereby safeguarding investment and environmental safety by reducing drift. 
  
• Biostimulants: act on the plant’s physiology to promote growth and stress tolerance naturally. Seaweed extracts and humates help olive trees cope with challenges like salinity, drought, and alternate bearing, leading to more consistent production.
  

By selecting the right AgroBest product for the right challenge, olive producers can address specific problems (like boron deficiency causing poor flowering, or scale insect outbreaks) with targeted solutions, all while improving the overall health of their groves. The technical formulations - such as chelated micronutrients, hormone-enriched seaweed, or multi-form nitrogen - ensure that these products work efficiently in the field, yet the tone of their use is conversational and grower-friendly: they integrate easily into existing programs. All products come in practical sizes (from small packs for trials to bulk containers for large orchards) and include guidance on optimal use. In a competitive olive market, maximising tree health and yield is paramount; AgroBest’s product suite provides growers with flexible tools to nourish their trees and protect their investment from some of the most common challenges like nutrient deficiencies and nutritional needs. Armed with this range of foliar feeds, soil boosters, protectants, adjuvants, and biostimulants, olive growers can craft a comprehensive, season-long program to keep their groves thriving. The result is stronger olive trees, bigger and more abundant fruit, and a more resilient orchard ecosystem - a win-win for producers aiming for both quantity and quality in their olive oil or table olive production.
