WILCO

Active Ingredient: Zinc

Pack Size: 4 kg

Key Benefits:

WILCO contains Zinc a vital micronutrient for plants that plays a key role in enzyme activation, protein and carbohydrate synthesis, and hormone production. It is essential for overall plant growth, development, and yield by influencing processes like chlorophyll formation, DNA/RNA synthesis, and stress tolerance. Zinc plays a critical role in the synthesis of auxins, such as indole acetic acid (IAA), which are plant hormones responsible for cell elongation and root development. Adequate zinc levels enhance a plant’s ability to resist various stresses, including drought, cold temperatures, and pathogen attacks, by promoting the synthesis of protective antioxidant enzymes and organic defense compounds. Zinc is necessary for proper flower and seed formation, pollen viability, and the development and maturation of seeds and stalks, directly impacting overall crop yield.

Mode of Action:

WILCO is a vital micronutrient that functions as a structural and regulatory component for numerous enzymes in plants, playing a key role in photosynthesis, protein metabolism, and hormone production. It is essential for carbohydrate, protein, and chlorophyll formation, which directly impacts overall growth, yield, and quality. A lack of zinc can result in stunted growth, chlorosis, and poor crop development, while an adequate supply supports optimal plant performance.

Application Guidelines:

WILCO fertilizer is applied to the soil and absorbed by the roots. It can be incorporated during planting or applied to the surface later. Apply during the planting or growing season. It can be done by broadcasting the granules over the soil or placing them in a band near the seeds. Recommendations vary based on soil test results, but for example, a broadcast application might range from 2 to 10 lbs of actual zinc per acre.
