Beyond Foliar is a complex blend of organic chelated micronutrients and cytokinin-rich plant extract, combined with balanced NPK formulations. It is rapidly absorbed and readily translocated throughout the plant, providing essential nutrition during critical growth stages. The range includes three targeted blends: NPK 3-10-15 for fruit filling, NPK 11-6-9 for balanced growth, and NPK 18-2-4 for early vegetative stages and crops with high nitrogen demand.
Beyond Foliar is primarily used to improve fruit quality, flavour, and colour, while supporting plant vigour during early growth and fruit development. It is ideal for fruit trees, vegetables, turf, and broadacre crops, supplying rapidly available nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and micronutrients at key stages of growth.

Beyond Foliar provides targeted nutrition with three unique blends that match specific crop stages. Its use of high-purity orthophosphoric acid and low-biuret nitrogen ensures maximum plant safety and efficiency. The inclusion of chelated micronutrients and seaweed extract supports rapid uptake, stress resistance, and higher fruit quality. This makes it a versatile foliar option for both horticultural and broadacre crops.
How does Beyond Foliar improve fruit quality and crop performance?
Beyond Foliar enhances fruit size, flavour, and colour by supplying phosphorus and potassium during critical reproductive stages. Phosphorus drives cell division and energy transfer, while potassium improves carbohydrate production and translocation. Chelated micronutrients ensure trace element availability, and seaweed extract enhances uptake and resilience.
Key benefits include:
This makes Beyond Foliar a complete solution for improving crop yield and marketable quality.

A successful Grove Management Plan must cover these key areas:
"A grove without an effective irrigation system is unlikely to deliver consistent yields year after year. Many growers still underestimate the water needs of olive trees, and few actually monitor soil moisture levels. This is why so many groves have never achieved a commercial crop." Marcelo Berlanda Specialist Olive Consultant
Water stress negatively affects flowering, fruit set, oil accumulation (oil production), fruit size (table olives), fruit quality, and overall tree health. However, many growers lack a proper system to monitor soil moisture or manage irrigation effectively.
Marcelo recommends:
"Growers should inspect soil moisture weekly during spring and summer, and every two weeks in autumn and winter. Use a shovel to dig at least 400mm under the tree canopy to check moisture. If the soil is hard to dig, it’s too dry – even if the canopy shows no visible signs of stress."
Advanced soil moisture monitoring tools can also provide reliable data on a digital display or computer dashboard.
For optimal grove health, growers must consistently check soil moisture and prevent water stress.
As discussed previously, taking leaf samples is essential to assess your trees’ nutritional status. This information guides the creation of a fertiliser program, a critical component for boosting or maintaining yields.
Typically, no fertiliser is needed in winter, unless you’re addressing soil amendments. However, some groves have severe nutrient deficiencies requiring fertiliser even in winter. Where proper irrigation systems aren’t in place, growers must broadcast fertiliser before rain to allow rainfall to incorporate nutrients into the soil profile, an inefficient use of resources but often the only option.
When applying fertiliser in these conditions, target the area beneath the canopy and, if possible, cultivate the soil to improve incorporation and reduce product loss.
Olives need four essential nutrients: Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium, and Calcium. Check product labels carefully. As a general guideline, aim for:
Avoid pruning during the coldest part of winter and when it’s wet or foggy to reduce the risk of bacterial and fungal disease spread.
The main goals of pruning are to remove dead wood, reduce canopy size, restore tree balance, encourage healthy new growth, and increase fruit set in spring.
Tip: After pruning, apply a copper-based spray to protect wounds from infection by fungi and bacteria.
Pest and disease management is crucial for sustaining yield and tree health. Winter’s colder temperatures reduce insect activity, offering a prime time to tackle pest issues.
Set up a comprehensive Pest and Disease Monitoring Program. During winter, check marked trees (previously affected by pests or diseases) every two weeks; in spring, check weekly. Look under leaves and on new growth for signs like crawlers, yellow spots, black sooty mold, or anything unusual.
Proactive, weekly management is essential for a successful grove.
