"Dermapharma İlaç Kimya ve Gübre Üretim A.Ş." was established in 2021 and specializes in the production and sale of organic fertilizer under the brand name "ULTRAFARM". By the end of 2023, it earned its registration and licenses related to "organic qualified" production from the appropriate authorities.
The extensive and uncontrolled usage of chemical fertilizers and pesticides worldwide in recent years has led to significant degradation of the soil structure in cultivable areas. To ensure sustainability and soil health, there has been an increased social demand for organic fertilizer.
Our company is among the leading producers of animal-origin organic fertilizers in Turkey, an area we've been conducting extensive research and development in. We selected sheep wool as our primary raw material due to its completely natural and sustainable properties, and the significant improvement it provides in crop productivity.
We manufacture two different types of organic fertilizers using sheep wool, which come in both solid and liquid forms.
Mainly due to the humic acid, fulvic acid and soluble free amino acids it contains; Provides fast and strong root development. It accelerates the development of beneficial organisms in the soil and increases the water retention and aeration capacity of the soil; It converts plant nutrients in the soil into a form that can be easily absorbed by the plant. In addition, thanks to the free amino acids and lanolin it contains, it prevents the plant from being stressed due to environmental factors and makes the plant resistant to all kinds of adverse weather conditions and environmental factors.
Our solid fertilizer in pellet form possesses the capacity to retain moisture up to 3.5 times its own weight. This feature contributes to a reduction in water consumption by approximately 25-30%. It thereby enables producers to cultivate products at a lower cost and aids in the conservation of natural resources.
