Calcium Nitrate
15.5-0-0 + Ca Fertilizer
Granular Calcium Nitrate Fertilizer | 15.5% N + 26CaO + 0.3B
Risso Calcium Nitrate 15.5-0-0 is a granular fertilizer providing predominantly nitrate nitrogen together with ammoniacal nitrogen, water-soluble calcium and boron for crop nutrition.
What Is Calcium Nitrate 15.5-0-0?
Calcium Nitrate is a nitrogen-calcium fertilizer supplying nitrate nitrogen, ammoniacal nitrogen and calcium in a single fertilizer.
Risso Calcium Nitrate 15.5-0-0 is a granular fertilizer with 15.5% total nitrogen, predominantly supplied as nitrate nitrogen. It combines readily available nitrogen with a substantial supply of soluble calcium.
The current Risso product specification contains:15.5% N + 26% CaO + 0.3% B
The nitrogen profile is predominantly nitrate-based:
- Nitrate-N: ≥14.4%
- Ammoniacal-N: 1.1%
The product also provides 18.8% minimum water-soluble calcium and 0.3% boron (B).
This nutrient profile makes Calcium Nitrate 15.5-0-0 suitable for crop nutrition programs that require readily available nitrate nitrogen together with calcium and supplemental boron.

It supplies nitrogen, calcium and boron in granular form.
Risso Calcium Nitrate contains a minimum of 15.5% total nitrogen. The current COA reports 15.6% total N.
Risso Calcium Nitrate contains a minimum of 15.5% total nitrogen. The current COA reports 15.6% total N.
The specification requires at least 14.4% nitrate nitrogen, while the current COA reports 14.5% nitrate-N.
The specification contains at least 18.8% water-soluble calcium, while the current COA reports 26.0% CaO.
Yes. Risso Calcium Nitrate 15.5-0-0 contains 0.3% boron (B).
It can be used in fertigation where the product's solubility, irrigation-water quality and fertilizer compatibility are suitable.
Yes. It can be incorporated into nutrition programs for tomato, pepper, cucumber, lettuce, cabbage and other vegetables requiring nitrogen and calcium.
Yes. It can be used in nutrition programs for strawberry, grape, apple, pear, citrus, melon and other fruit crops, according to crop requirements.
Concentrated calcium fertilizer should not be mixed directly with concentrated phosphate solutions unless compatibility has been confirmed. Calcium phosphate precipitation may occur and can cause deposits or clogging in fertigation systems.
Calcium-containing fertilizer concentrates should generally be kept separate from concentrated sulfate fertilizers because calcium sulfate precipitation may occur.
