Chelate (from the Greek word chele – claw) is an organic complex based on a chemical compound of trace elements in chelate form.
The chelating (“capturing”) agent provides a strong bonding of nutrient ions in a form that is as accessible to the plant as possible. Once it enters the plant cells, it goes into biological form and breaks down into its chemical components. They are quickly and easily assimilated by plants, providing not only their nutrition, but also organizing a powerful protection against the effects of adverse environmental factors, various stresses, temperature fluctuations.
Complex liquid chelate fertilizers are similar in structure to natural compounds. This explains the high effectiveness of such fertilizers, especially for young plants. Not only fertilizers, but also preparations for pre-sowing seed treatment, foliar dressing and drip irrigation are produced on the basis of chelates.
Advantages of chelated fertilizers
Chelate fertilizers are successfully used in agriculture, horticulture and have proven high efficiency of use, especially in comparison with micronutrients in the form of soluble salts, which were actively used before.
The main advantages of chelates:
- high rate of micronutrient uptake by plants due to rapid penetration of metal ions through cell membranes;
- increasing the quantity and quality of the crop;
- maintaining a high amount of vitamins and trace elements in the plant.
Micronutrients in chelated form are assimilated by plants by 90% or more. Chelates do not trigger cross-reactions that result in ballasted non-digestible substances.
Application of fertilizers produced by “Zoloto Poley” with trace elements in chelate form
Liquid chelate fertilizers of the company “Gold of Fields” are made on the basis of humic, fulvic and amino acids. They are extracted in the Meshchera protected area from lowland peat deposits, which are located in ecologically clean areas. The company’s specialists use a multi-stage purification system, which results in safe and biologically active chelate fertilizers.
Applications for chelate fertilizers:
- seed pretreatment, comprehensive cellular nutrition;
- treatment to improve germination, strengthening the root system;
- stress reduction in plants (adaptogen, thermoprotector, inhibitor);
- acceleration of natural humification processes, increasing fertility.
Comprehensive organochelate fertilizer, produced by ” Zoloto Poley” and mono fertilizers with trace elements in chelate form provide strong support for plants, help strengthen the root system and significantly increase resistance to potentially dangerous influences, including the use of pesticides. Chelates have an increased bioavailability. The plant gets everything it needs for its growth, active flowering and the formation of healthy fruits with a high content of nutrients.
Complex organochelate fertilizer produced by the company ” Zoloto Poley” “O-RISE All Inclusive” and organochelate “O-RISE Zinc” mono fertilizer, “O-RISE Iron”, “O-RISE Copper” suitable for agricultural crops, can be used both for preventive and curative purposes, such as chlorosis, lack of certain micronutrients in the soil, stresses that can kill the plant or significantly slow down their growth. Agronomists of the company ” Zoloto Poley” will make a program of fertilizer application and give expert advice by phone *2601.
