K-PAM™ HL: A Soil Fumigant Solution for All Crops

What is the difference between Vapam® and K-PAM™?

• K-PAM™ is equal to Vapam® in its biocidal activity.
• K-PAM™ contains Metam Potassium (potassium hydroxide), while Vapam® contains sodium hydroxide.
• K-PAM™ puts 56 pounds of readily available K in the soil, without the sodium of Vapam®. This provides potassium as well as better yields and quality.
• K-PAM™ requires 28% less gallonage per acre than Vapam®

Where does K-PAM™ fit?

• Crops that benefit from potassium, such as potatoes
• Crops sensitive to salt (onions, lettuce, broccoli)
• Calcium carbonate soils
• High sodium soils
• High pH soils
• Well-water irrigated fields

How does it work?

Even though Vapam® is a long proven product with a myriad of data to support its use, it does contain sodium which can have an adverse affect on certain crops in certain soil profiles. K-PAM™ replaces the sodium contained in Vapam® with potassium, freeing up important soil nutrients which the plant needs.
