Why Trigger
Trigger is Incitec Pivot’s humic acid product within the Organic Compounds range, designed for easy incorporation into existing fertiliser programs without the need for a separate application.
Available as an add-on to your fertiliser order, Trigger helps enhance fertiliser efficiency, support soil health, and increase on-farm productivity. Its high-quality, low-dust granules are air-seeder rated for smooth flow, minimal blockages, and dependable performance with precision equipment.
Trigger can also be included in EASY N, helping reduce the need for a second pass and simplifying your overall nutrient program.
Overview
Trigger is a premium-quality humic acid product – a low-dust, air-seeder-rated, high-concentration granule designed to lift fertiliser efficiency and support stronger soil health.
Because it’s highly compatible with all Incitec Pivot fertiliser ingredients, you can simply add Trigger into your custom blends or range blends and get the benefits of a fast-acting, organic-compound-based soil ameliorant without changing your program.
Thanks to its unique air-dried formulation (not high-heat processed), Trigger retains key functional groups – including carboxyl, quinone, phenolic and amine groups – that help improve nutrient uptake and drive positive plant responses.
For growers, it means a straightforward, low-effort way to boost fertiliser performance and soil vitality using the equipment and application system you already have.
The Science
Humic acids are natural organic compounds that help improve soil structure, boost nutrient retention, and support beneficial microbial activity. When Trigger is co-located with fertiliser granules, these benefits are delivered right into the root zone – where they can make the biggest difference to nutrient availability and plant uptake.
Trigger’s unique air-drying process (rather than high-heat treatment) preserves the integrity and activity of the humic acid. This helps maintain key functional groups that drive cation exchange, nutrient chelation, and root stimulation.
Its balanced chemistry also means Trigger blends easily with other fertiliser ingredients. You get strong granule integrity, minimal dust, and no segregation in your blends.
Most importantly, Trigger fits straight into your current program – no extra equipment, no extra passes, and no need to change the way you farm.
