High P+K reproductive complex. The finishing formulation — phosphorus and potash delivered together at the stage that decides both yield and quality.
| Nutrient | Content |
|---|---|
| P₂O₅ — phosphorus pentoxide | 42% |
| K₂O — potassium oxide | 40% |
| Total nutrient units | 82 |
The two figures sum to the code — 42 + 40 = 82.
Pakistani nutrition programmes are front-loaded. Nitrogen and basal phosphorus get applied, and then the crop reaches the stage where potassium demand peaks — grain fill in wheat, boll development in cotton, tuber bulking in potato, fruit set in mango and citrus — and the programme has nothing left in it. Potassium is the most heavily mined nutrient in the country's soils and phosphorus is the most heavily fixed, so the reproductive window is where both shortfalls arrive at once.
PK-82 is built for that window specifically. It is not a general-purpose blend that happens to contain P and K; it is deliberately nitrogen-free so that it can be applied at a stage where more nitrogen would push vegetative growth at exactly the wrong moment.
Formats are specified per formulation rather than offered as a standard set. Only the combinations VAN has confirmed appear here.
| Grade | Form | Application | Pack sizes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Solid | Powder | Fertigation · foliar | 10 · 25 · 50 · 1000 kg |
| Solid | Crystalline soluble | Fertigation | 10 · 25 · 50 · 1000 kg |
| Liquid | Concentrate | Fertigation · foliar | 1000 L |
All three forms are produced against this code.
| Crop | Stage | What it is doing there |
|---|---|---|
| Cotton | Boll development | Holding boll retention through the highest-demand phase |
| Wheat | Grain fill | Supporting fill under terminal heat, when root uptake falls away |
| Potato | Tuber bulking | The single largest potassium draw in the rotation |
| Mango · citrus | Fruit set and sizing | Quality and size rather than tonnage alone |
| Sugarcane | Ripening | Sucrose accumulation |
Positioning is drawn from VAN's crop nutrition programmes and standard stage agronomy. No dose rate is published for this code — it varies by crop, region and application method, and is set per programme.
A headline number will appear here once VAN's own trial data has been signed off. Until then this card carries the stage; the yield figure follows the trial.
The code is what VAN calls it internally. On a pack it carries your name, your colours and your claim, produced on the same line to the same frozen specification.
Showcase packs carry the VAN identity and the family colour for sales samples only. Commercial production runs entirely in your artwork.
