Who is 

Hybrid-Ag? 

Hybrid-Ag is a family owned, 

specialist fertiliser 

manufacturing company with 

many years of experience in 

Horticulture and Broad acre 

farming. Established in 2001, 

the company has grown to 

become a trusted and proven 

player in a very competitive 

market offering its clients an 

alternative supply of custom 

made and prescribed nutrient 

blends for all sectors of the 

agricultural industry. 

After being approached by a 

world class golf course in 2011 

to recommend and 

manufacturer a unique custom 

fertiliser, Hybrid-Ag recognised 

the significant need in the turf 

industry for a change in soil 

amendments and fertiliser 

practises. Now a dedicated 

division of the company, 

‘Sustainable Turf Solutions’ is 

providing a new insight into turf 

& soil health for greens 

keepers, curators and golf 

course superintendents. 

As the name ‘Hybrid’ 

(combination) & ‘Ag' 

(agriculture) suggests, the best 

knowledge, products and 

agricultural practice available 

from all areas of the industry 

have been extensively 

researched and combined to 

develop a very unique approach 

that guarantees ‘Sustainable 

Solutions’ for today and 

‘Responsible Outcomes’ for the 

next generation. 

‘To be truly sustainable, our turf facilities 

must have a Balanced Soil, Healthy Grass 

and Maximum Presentation!’

Our 

Mission 

‘To apply our experience 

and focus in soil and plant 

nutrition to help 

Superintendents and Green 

Keepers to achieve 

maximum quality and 

presentation in a manner 

that is environmentally, 

socially and economically 

profitable.’ 

‘And… to provide a superior 

range of highly effective 

and environmentally 

sustainable soil and plant 

nutrient programs.’ 

The Hybrid-Ag approach to 

soil and turf nutrition – 

developed over many years 

and continually refined – is 

based on the concept of 

complete, balanced and 

complexed nutrient delivery 

along with the nurturing of 

soil and plant biology. 

True Soil 

Health 

Genuine soil health 

embraces three areas; 

Physical, Biological and 

Chemical. All three are 

indisputably 

interconnected. Changes in 

any one of the three will 

always affect the other 

two. 

At Hybrid-Ag, all three 

areas are given the due 

consideration they 

deserve. We recognise 

there are no shortcuts in 

the attention required to 

get the balance correct in 

any area and between all 

of the areas. Utilising the 

concept of complete, 

balanced and complexed 

nutrient delivery we have 

developed a uniquely 

effective method of 

addressing all areas of 

true soil health. 

‘The art of soil 

nutrient & fertiliser 

amendments’ 

3

‘Apply only the 

nutrients your 

turfgrass needs.’ 

Hybrid-Ag has made an ‘art form’ of 

formulating specific blends of nutrients 

that have been accurately tailored from 

soil test data to perfectly match individual 

soil requirements, giving the ultimate 

fertilising result. This is an economical, 

no-compromise approach to soil fertility. 

‘An accurate and comprehensive soil 

analysis is a vital investment.’

Agri-Vive ® 

Liquid Fertiliser for the Future 

Agri-Vive is a premium quality, world-class, liquid 

fertiliser range, using cutting edge technology to 

create a unique fusion between high potency N:P:K 

liquids and a broad spectrum of ‘active carbon’ 

organic ingredients. Hybrid-Ag has created a very 

special, biologically buffered plant nutrient liquid. 

We begin with a base of ultra-concentrated, pH 

balanced ‘hot mix’ N:P:K liquids, manufactured in a 

controlled reaction between pure, technical grade 

ingredients. 

This pure base is then reacted with unique Heptonate 

Chelators and Fulvic acids, a process which binds the 

pure N:P:K liquids into complex carbohydrate chains. 

This complexing totally alters the way the nutrients 

react, making their uptake far more efficient as well 

as Eco-friendly. 

A comprehensive range of trace elements completes 

the package of a class-leading liquid nutrient blend. 

To this very unique blend we then add liquid kelp, aloe 

vera, amino acids, hydrolysed fish and 

polysaccharides. Individually, these ingredients are 

very useful plant stimulants, microorganism food 

sources or both. Combining significant amounts of 

them together creates a SYNERGY – where all the 

components together give a greater result than all of 

them would give if applied individually. 

Agri-Vive gives truly exceptional performance in the 

field. The natural additives in the blend, when used as 

a foliar spray, help adhere the nutrient solution to the 

leaf, allowing ample time for the nutrients to 

penetrate the leaf and enter the plant’s nutrient 

transportation system. 

Agri-Vive has been formulated for use in both 

fertigation and foliar applications, with only the 

highest quality ingredients used. 

Available in a class-leading range of blends that gives 

you the ability to tailor the product to specifically suit 

your property.

N 25 

A Revolution in Nitrogen Application 

N 25 is a revolutionary Nitrogen delivery technology 

that drives growth and increases the mineral density 

of your crop. 

New data on the efficiency of Nitrogen uptake is 

revolutionizing fertilizer applications in Turf 

Management in Australia. Typically, Australian Green 

Keepers have put large amounts of Ammonium 

Nitrate on the ground to obtain the growth responses 

required, with the focus being on UNITS of N per 100 

sqm. This approach pays very little regard to how 

much Nitrogen is actually getting into the plant. By 

changing this thought process and applying the 

Nitrogen in a dramatically more efficient manner, 

Green Keepers are able to significantly reduce the 

amount of Nitrogen used to achieve the same results. 


 

 

Foliar: 10–30 Litres per Hectare. 

Watered in: 40-200 Litres per Hectare. 

How is this possible? By adding the nitrogen in a 

specific form as a foliar applied product. 

The form of nitrogen found in N 25 is extremely 

efficient for the plant to convert to protein, thus saving 

it valuable energy that the plant can then put towards 

increased growth. N 25 increases the mineral density 

of the plant as the nitrogen process ‘powers’ the 

sugar development in the plant. 

N 25 is also easy to use. It is a workable product 

suitable for liquid injection, boom spray or even 

fertigation, available in a range of pack sizes.

Green-Tee ® Nitro 

Liquid Nitrogen 

The Importance of Nitrogen 

Nitrogen is one of the most important nutrients for 

crop growth, second only to water. 

Nitrogen is a component of chlorophyll which 

therefore makes it essential for photosynthesis. It is 

also the basic element of plant and animal proteins, 

including the genetic material DNA and RNA, and is 

important in periods of rapid plant growth. 

Most of the nitrogen is used by the plant to produce 

protein (in the form of enzymes) and nucleic acids. 

Magnesium is Essential for: 

Magnesium promotes winter hardiness and early 

growth. It is essential for nitrogen metabolism and 

chlorophyll synthesis, and helps the turf to utilise iron 

and phosphate. Turf which is short of magnesium has 

yellowing drooping leaves. 

Magnesium interacts with both calcium and 

potassium so should be kept in balance with those. 

Ideally the calcium to magnesium ratio should be 

about 10:1. 

The Role of Iron 

Plants need iron to produce chlorophyll and Iron is 

also required to activate several enzymes, particularly 

those involved in photosynthesis, respiration, and 

chlorophyll production. 12 Iron Ions are required to 

complete Photosynthesis, thus making it a vital part of 

plant respiration.

Nitro-Iron Dormancy 

Liquid Nitrogen & Iron with Exothermic Dye 

The Role of Nitrogen 

The Role of Iron 

Nitrogen is the major building block in protein and 

chlorophyll. It is also essential for lipid and cytoplasm 

formation. Highly mobile in the plant, it is 

translocated and utilised in the growing tips. Nitrogen 

is vital to plant growth but can be a limiting factor in 

uptake of other nutrients. Nitrogen is often leached 

from the soil therefore regular application in low 

doses will ensure efficient uptake without excessive 

losses. 

Plants need iron to produce chlorophyll and Iron is 

also required to activate several enzymes, particularly 

those involved in photosynthesis and respiration, and 

chlorophyll production. 12 Iron Ions are required to 

complete Photosynthesis, thus making it a vital part of 

plant respiration.

Power-Cal 

Complex Calcium 

Power Cal is based on the world’s best and latest 

Calcium Technology for plants. Essential plant 

micronutrients are complexed in an organic sugar 

alcohol to create a highly efficient foliar trace element 

fertiliser. The small molecular size and delivery 

package containing humectants, spreading and 

penetrant agents further ensures that the complexed 

nutrients are phloem and xylem mobile. 

Calcium Mobility in Plants 

Calcium is a relatively immobile element in plants and 

this causes some well-known disorders. Power-Cal is 

specifically designed to provide calcium to plants 

more efficiently than other forms of calcium. Power 

Cal sugar alcohol complexes the Calcium ion enabling 

it to move into the plant via the phloem, where the 

sugars move more easily towards the growth forming 

locations. Once Power Cal Calcium reaches the 

protein forming tissue the sugar bond breaks down 

and the Calcium flows to where it is needed. 

Power Cal Features 

Builds tissue calcium levels improving 

disease resistance and drought tolerance 

Improves cell structure 

Improves overall quality, weight and texture 

Eliminates hidden Calcium deficiencies and 

hunger signs 

Contains 100% Soluble and plant available 

nutrients utilising the Power-Cal delivery 

system. 

Contains leaf penetrants and translocation 

aids to enhance root and foliar uptake 

Does NOT contain chlorides which can cause 

serious leaf injury 

Rapidly absorbed into the plant 

Calcium aids in the formation and strength of cell 

walls and is necessary for the development of plants. 

It is also required for early root growth and strong 

new top growth.

Opti-Trace ® 

High Tech Trace Element Delivery 

Trace elements have become an acknowledged part of 

comprehensive plant nutrition where ideal plant 

health is sought after, and an enormous volume of 

research has been done by many plant research 

scientists islolating symptoms of trace element 

deficiencies and indexing ‘critical levels’ where 

symptoms may not be seen, but quality and yield are 

affected anyway. 

Opti-Trace uses a complex sugar alcohol delivery 

system that has been adopted by Hybrid-Ag because 

of its unique properties that deliver more of the 

applied trace element to the plant in a form that is 

perfectly compatible to the plant’s biological 

processes. 

To these cutting-edge, chelated minerals we add 

liquid kelp, amino acids, polysaccharides, hydrolysed 

fish and aloe vera. Individually, each of these 

ingredients are very useful plant stimulants or 

microorganism food sources or both. Combining 

significant amounts of them together creates a 

SYNERGY – where all the components together give a 

greater result than all of them would give if applied 

individually. 

The Opti-Trace Range is available in all of the major 

elements as individual nutrients and also in blended 

formulas.

Bio Sea ® FKF 

Nutrient Power From The Ocean! 

There are a number of compelling reasons why 

extracts from the ocean are such effective plant 

growth enhancers. One of them is the incredible 

range of micro-nutrients they naturally contain. This 

broad spectrum of minerals has been eroded from 

parent rock over eons and washed into the ocean, 

giving the plants and animals which live there access 

to these 70 plus nutrients, many of which are no 

longer present in our agricultural soils. Many of these 

elements are only required in parts per billion, yet 

have remarkable effects on plant health. 

Another reason for the remarkable plant responses 

are the naturally occurring vitamins, amino acids and 

hormones which are present in these ocean extracts. 

These natural extracts gently stimulate the plant, 

creating systemic immune responses and assisting in 

boosting true plant health. Fish and Kelp based 

liquids are an invaluable source of nutrients to help 

with the re-mineralisation of our plants and soils. 


 

 

 


Watered in: 10 Litres per Hectare. 

Soil Conditioning: 30 Litres per Hectare. 


Here again, The Real Power of FKF is SYNERGY. The 

fish component in Bio-Sea FKF is a premium organic 

liquid produced entirely from sustainably harvested 

deep sea fish, mainly Hoki and Orange Roughy. These 

deep sea fish contain the highest levels of natural 

nitrogen of any fish, as well as having a broad 

spectrum trace element composition. 

The kelp component is the renowned Ascophyllum 

Nodosum seaweed, harvested from carefully 

managed underwater ‘forests’ in the cold, clean 

waters off the coast of Norway. 

Fulvic acid is included in this unique blend because of 

it’s amazing versatility. Like an incredible 

microscopic liquid sponge, fulvic acid has an 

enormous capacity to absorb toxins and pollutants 

and assist in their breakdown.

Lockout ® 

Biological Disease Control 

There are a number of species of microorganisms 

that have been identified as being effective in helping 

to control a broad spectrum of diseases. Three that 

have been researched in depth, and have been proven 

to assist in combating disease are: 

Trichoderma spp. eg T. harzianum 

Streptomyces spp. eg S. lydicus 

Bacillus spp. eg B. subtilis 

These potentially beneficial microorganisms often 

produce metabolites (natural chemicals) that assist 

plants to grow as well as inhibiting the growth of 

other disease causing microbes. These beneficial 

microorganisms live in close association with plants 

root systems and produce compounds that solubilise 

fertilisers as well as protecting their own immediate 

environment (the rhizosphere) from invasion by plant 

disease-causing organisms. 

The addition of synergistic species to the soil works 

far better than the addition of a single species and 

there needs to be many of them to compete with the 

disease population already present. 

The colonisation of the rhizosphere of turf grass has 

proved difficult because of: Low Organic Carbon 

Levels, Free Draining Sands, High Levels of Daily 

Player & Machinery Traffic and an Intensive Fertiliser 

and Fungicidal Disease Management Program. 


Industry Leaders & Innovators 

Hybrid Ag has been researching and developing 

biology and its benefits to Plant and Soil health over 2 

decades. 

The use of biology in soils and plants is not a new 

science to Hybrid Ag and we have now developed a 

chemical-free product which stimulates the rapid 

formation of beneficial microorganisms in the 

rhizosphere of the plant. 

This product, based upon World 1st proprietary 

technology is now launched under the trade name 

Lockout®. 

Lockout® contains multiple strains of biology and is 

specifically produced for use on turfgrass using this 

new technology. 

Lockout® consists of a 2 part mix made up of: 

Part A – Liquid Innoculum 

Part B – Powdered Innoculum

Liqui-Gyp 

Micro Fine Mineral Suspensions 

Micronised Black Liquid Gypsum 

Regular use of gypsum is essential to the 

sustainability of most irrigated soils. Irrigating land 

eventually leads to sodicity and salinity unless 

extreme care is taken. Gypsum is a key ingredient for 

the maintenance of turfgrass on many types of soil 

and over a wide pH range, including sodicity (excess 

sodium). 

In addition to prevention and correction of sodicity, the 

benefits of Liqui-Gyp include: 

Micronised mineral suspensions are now firmly 

established as a unique nutrient delivery method that 

opens up a whole new set of options for delivering 

important minerals to plants for rapid assimilation 

(uptake) through either fertigation or ground spray. 

They provide high analysis, easy to use liquid 

suspensions of the key nutrients; Calcium, Phosphate, 

Magnesium, Sulfur and Zinc with an average particle 

size of 5 micron (5/1000th of 1mm). 

 

 

 

 

greater stability of soil organic matter 

more stable soil aggregates 

improved water penetration into soil 

more rapid seed emergence 

Ground-applied they provide useful microbe food and 

rapid plant feeding without the leaching problems of 

soluble fertilisers. They can even be foliar sprayed in 

some situations.

Bird Bane 

Natural Bird Deterrent 

Birds and wildlife are naturally attracted to the vast 

variety of native trees and shrubs that feature in most 

Australian parks, gardens and golf courses. Areas 

that include water features are especially prone to 

increased populations of ducks and water birds, and 

to most they are a welcome sight and help add to the 

outdoor experience. In fact, the managers of many 

golf courses are active in promoting the variety of 

native bird species that visit the area for feeding and 

nesting, and in some cases are providing nesting 

boxes to encourage the bird population. 

Birds are welcome, however not in large numbers on 

the fairways, greens and tees. The damage that a 

flock of cockatoos, galahs or ducks etc. can make on 

the surface of a green can be quite extensive. 

Hybrid-Ag has developed a new product to combat 

these problems without harmful effects on the 

environment. 


Methyl Anthranilate 25.0% 

Bird Bane is irritating to the trigeminal nerves of birds 

which controls their taste, sight and smell. This 

makes anything treated with Bird Bane extremely 

distasteful to birds with the result that they avoid the 

area and in most cases don’t come back for feeding as 

they now associate that area as unpalatable to them. 

(This only affects birds in this way and no other 

animals.) 

By treating only the greens, tees & fairways the Green 

Keeper can keep the birds off the problem areas while 

allowing the birds to enjoy the surrounding 

vegetation. 

Bird Bane is a proprietary blend of natural ingredients 

that have been tested on a number of bird species 

with dramatic reductions in activity on the treated 

area without any harm or suffering to the birds 

themselves. The active ingredient is a form of Methyl 

Anthranilate (MA) which is an extract of Concord 

Grape Juice – a beverage that is marketed as having 

amazing health benefits. 


 

15-20 Litres per hectare. Speak to your 

consultant for the best rates for your 

application. 

Note: Spray immediately after mowing and ensure the 

solution penetrates to the grass stalk. Using high pressure 

will assist in achieving a small droplet size and complete 

blade coverage. Repeat treatment as needed after mowing 

until the birds are remaining off the area.

Did you know, 

nearly all nutrients 

in the soil are 

acted on by 

microorganisms to 

make them plantavailable? 

We all know plants need a 

NPK fertiliser in the right 

ratio to keep them healthy. 

So is that all? 

That would be the same as 

bringing up your kids on 

instant meals or meal 

replacement shakes that 

contain nothing but 

powdered protein, 

carbohydrates and fat, in the 

correct ratio. 

Will they grow strong and 

healthy with a good immune 

system? 

Probably not! 

People who eat a balanced, 

wholesome diet with plenty 

of fresh food and vegetables 

are healthy. They don't need 

extra protein shakes and 

vitamin pills or supplements. 

And they rarely need to see a 

doctor. 

Plants grown in rich, 

balanced, healthy and living 

soils are just the same. No 

need to continually feed high 

nitrogen and expensive 

fertilizers all the time. No 

need to always be losing the 

battle on pests and diseases. 

Plants have immune 

systems, too. They are 

actually quite good at 

fighting those diseases and 

pests themselves, provided 

the plants are strong and 

healthy. 

Unfortunately, most of us 

aren’t lucky enough to have 

inherited the perfect soil for 

growing turf. So while we 

need to feed high energy 

supplements to grow great 

looking greens and fairways, 

we also need to ensure we 

are re-building a living, 

healthy soil with lots of 

organic matter and teeming 

with beneficial 

microorganisms. 

19

So why add Sugar 

alcohols, Chelates, 

Carbohydrates, 

Fish, Kelp & Fulvic 

acid? 

SUGAR ALCOHOL AND 

CARBOHYDRATES 

Sugar alcohol chelation 

technology complexes 

nutrients in a form that 

mimics the plants own 

natural transportation 

system, increasing mobility 

within the plant. Adding 

sugars to nutrient 

formulations provides the 

plant with a carbohydrate 

food source that enables and 

stimulates the flow of 

nutrient to the protein 

forming tissues in the plant. 

Sugar sources are also very 

useful as a soil-applied food 

source for microorganisms. 

FULVIC ACID 

Fulvic acid is amazingly 

versatile. Like an incredible 

microscopic liquid sponge, it 

has an enormous capacity to 

absorb toxins and pollutants 

and assist in their 

breakdown. Fulvic acids have 

extremely small molecular 

size and are highly mobile 

within the plant, helping 

plant metabolism and 

regulating transpiration. 

Fulvic has a pH of 

approximately 4.5 

FISH AND KELP 

Liquid fish is an excellent 

food source for soil 

microbes which facilitates 

nutrient release. It also 

provides broad-spectrum 

trace element fertilisation. 

Kelp is an amazing 

storehouse of over 60 

naturally occurring major 

and minor nutrients and 

amino acids. It also contains 

complexing alginates and 

mannitols as well as the 

plant growth promoting 

cytokinins, gibberellins, 

auxins and betains. 

CHELATORS 

The use of chelators 

increases the stability of 

individual nutrients while 

decreasing natural loss or 

‘locking-up’. 

A chelate is an organic 

compound composed of a 

nutrient ion and 

a chelating agent. 

A chelating agent is a 

substance that works like a 

‘claw’, surrounding the 

nutrient in an organic ring. 

Hybrid-Ag uses both sugar 

alcohol and Heptonate 

sequestrating agents that 

deliver the nutrients to the 

plant in a form that is more 

compatible with the plant’s 

biological processes.
