What is the difference between Biovita Liquid and Biovita Granules?

Biovita Granules are designed for basal soil application, while Biovita Liquid is meant for foliar spray and drip irrigation fertigation.

Can Biovita replace primary chemical fertilizers like Urea and DAP?

No. Biovita is a plant growth enhancer and biostimulant that improves nutrient absorption, but does not replace macronutrient fertilizers.
