Feather Meal 12.8-0-0 (25 lb)

Feather meal is a slow-release nitrogen fertilizer made from hydrolyzed, ground poultry feathers high in protein. With an impressive 12.8% nitrogen content, it provides long-lasting nutrition for crops, feeding plants steadily over several months. This makes it ideal for supporting strong, sustained growth in heavy feeders and nitrogen-loving plants.

• High N (12.8%) that is slowly released (6-9 months or longer in soils with low biological activity).
• Use on plants that like a slow release of N including corn, leafy greens, trees, shrubs, and many other vegetables.
• Apply at 200–400 lb/acre or for gardens use 25–50 lb/1000 sq ft.

How Feather Meal 12.8-0-0 (25 lb) fits a fertility plan

• Supplies nitrogen to support leaf, shoot, and overall vegetative growth when crops and soil conditions call for additional feeding.
• Its concentrated nitrogen analysis makes careful measurement especially important.
• The dry or liquid format and package size shown in the title allow the product to be matched to the crop area and application equipment.

Application guidance: Apply according to crop demand and label timing. Excess nitrogen can produce overly soft growth, delay flowering or maturity, increase salt stress, or move beyond the root zone. Split applications where the label and crop program support that approach, and keep granules or concentrated liquid away from direct stem contact unless directed.
