ZINC CHELATED

Active Ingredient: Zinc Chelated

Pack Size: 500GM & 1000GM

Key Benefits:

Chelated zinc plays a vital role in agriculture and human/animal health by significantly enhancing nutrient bioavailability and absorption compared to inorganic forms. Chelation protects zinc from reacting with soil compounds, making it more available to roots and foliage. It supports crucial functions such as chlorophyll production, photosynthesis, and carbohydrate metabolism, leading to better plant vigor and higher yields. Chelated zinc enhances a plant’s ability to withstand environmental stresses like drought, salinity, and extreme temperatures. It supports stronger immune systems in crops, improving resistance to bacterial and fungal diseases.

Mode of Action:

Chelated zinc functions by increasing the bioavailability and absorption efficiency of zinc in organisms (plants or humans) compared to inorganic zinc forms. The chelating agent, which is typically an organic molecule like EDTA or an amino acid/peptide, binds to the zinc ion to form a stable, soluble complex that is protected from reactions that would otherwise render it insoluble and unavailable.

Application Guidelines:

Chelated zinc is a highly soluble micronutrient applied via foliar spray (250-500g/acre), soil application (0.5-2kg/acre), or fertigation (500g-1kg/acre) to correct deficiencies. It is best applied early in the growth stage, before flowering, or post-harvest for trees, ensuring rapid nutrient uptake by plants.
