COMBINING ORGANIC FERTILIZER AND NPK 20-10-10 + 6S + 0.045B BASEOS – TAKING CARE OF COFFEE IN THE FOUNDATION STAGE

Coffee in the foundation stage requires a balanced nutrition program. Combining organic fertilizer with NPK 20-10-10 + 6S + 0.045B BASEOS helps coffee trees grow strong and healthy.

1. Why is coffee care important in the foundation stage?

During the coffee foundation stage, fertilization plays a decisive role in building strong, deep root systems that anchor firmly in the soil. Healthy roots are the basis for stable growth in later stages.

Moreover, fertilizers enhance the tree’s natural resistance, helping coffee withstand pests, diseases, and harsh weather. This ensures steady growth and vitality throughout the development process.

Most importantly, proper fertilization in this stage creates a solid foundation for yield and bean quality during the productive stage, ensuring a sustainable and profitable coffee plantation.

2. The optimal solution for coffee in the foundation stage

The combination of organic fertilizer and NPK 20-10-10 + 6S + 0.045B BASEOS from Baconco provides an effective solution, ensuring proper care right from the start:

NPK 20-10-10 + 6S + 0.045B BASEOS

• Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), Potassium (K): Support balanced growth of leaves, stems, and roots, creating a solid framework for the next stages.
• Sulfur (S): Enhance photosynthesis, improve nutrient absorption, and prevent sulfur deficiency.
• Boron (B): Stimulate bud formation, flower differentiation, and improve fruit set while reducing fruit drop.
• Enriched with beneficial microorganisms, NPK BASEOS boosts soil biology, supports nutrient uptake, strengthens natural resistance, and limits pests and diseases.

ORGANICONCO Organic Fertilizer

• Improve soil structure: Increase aeration, fertility, and water retention, creating favorable conditions for root growth.
• Enrich beneficial microbes and micronutrients: Stimulate young root development, improve nutrient absorption, and reduce soil-borne diseases.
• Build sustainable soil health: Support strong and resilient coffee trees, enhancing long-term farming efficiency.

3. Fertilization guide for coffee in the foundation stage

Seedling stage:

• NPK 20-10-10 + 6S + 0.045B BASEOS: 10–15g/tree/application, starting 1–2 weeks after planting. Divide into 2–3 applications in the first month, 10–15cm away from the root, cover lightly with soil.
• ORGANICONCO: Basal application 100–200g/tree. Topdressing 0.5–1kg/tree/year.

Foundation stage:

• NPK 20-10-10 + 6S + 0.045B BASEOS: Apply 3 times per year (early, mid, and late rainy season). Dosage: 50–100g/tree/application, total 150–300g/tree/year.
• ORGANICONCO: Apply once or split into 2–3 times/year. Spread evenly around the root zone and cover with soil.

5. Notes when fertilizing coffee

To achieve the best results when fertilizing coffee in the foundation stage, farmers should follow these guidelines:

• Timing: Apply in the early morning or late afternoon for optimal nutrient uptake and to reduce loss.
• Application method: Spread fertilizer at a proper distance from the trunk, cover lightly with soil, and avoid direct root contact to prevent root burn.
• Soil condition: Do not apply organic fertilizer when soil is too dry or waterlogged, as nutrients may not dissolve properly or may leach away.

By following these practices, farmers ensure healthy coffee growth, higher yields, and consistent bean quality.

Conclusion

In the coffee foundation stage, balanced and scientific nutrition is essential. By combining organic fertilizer and NPK 20-10-10 + 6S + 0.045B BASEOS with ORGANICONCO, Baconco provides farmers with a reliable solution to strengthen root systems, improve soil fertility, and build a solid foundation for long-term productivity and quality.
