- Bio-Chel Fe is Ecologically sound
Commonly used chelating agents such as EDTA or DTPA are poor to biodegrade, accumulate in the environment and have been detected in the surface waters of rivers, lakes, soils across Europe. Bio-Chel Fe granular is a non-toxic, and nonpolluting chelated iron which does not produce gaseous or waste products that can pollute water or the atmosphere.
- The Role of Iron
Iron plays a major role in chlorophyll (green pigment plants) development and its function. It plays a role in energy transfer within plants; it is a constituent of certain enzymes and proteins. Iron functions in plant restoration and plant metabolism. Soils with a high pH will reduce the availability of iron. Excessive amounts of soluble phosphate or high rates of phosphate fertilizer can inhibit iron uptake by many crops. Increased nitrate uptake can reduce iron uptake by causing an anion-cation imbalance in plants. Iron deficiencies can also be induced by the presence of bicarbonate ion in the soil (in both saline and alkaline conditions).
- Bio-Chel Fe use in Irrigation Systems
When used in fertigation systems Bio-Chel Fe Granular provides highly available and complexed iron source to provide available nutrient for an extended period. Bio-Chel Fe Granular can be used singly or in blends and added to existing feed mixes. Being more available than other chelated or amino acid sources makes BioChel Fe Granular ideal for use in both soil and all substrate growing systems.
- Crop Timings and Application Rates
Crop Powder rate per Ha (irrigated) Application timings Tree fruit 1.0-2.0kg As required for all crops Stone fruit 1.0-2.0kg As required for all crops Berry fruits 1.0-1.5kg Apply from after planting and as required from analysis Fruiting vegetables 0.5kg-2.0kg Apply from planting and supplement as required Vegetable crops N/A Apply as required from analysis Grapes 2.0kg Apply as required from signs of deficiency or as required Sports turf 2.0kg Apply as required from signs of deficiency or as required Ornamentals 2.0kg Apply as required from signs of deficiency or regularly as iron source every feeding Bio-Chel Fe Granular, is a rootzone fertilizer and best results will be achieved by regular application. Always read the label and follow instructions when mixing Bio-Chel Fe Granular with other fertilizers and pesticides. Bio-Chel Fe Granular is compatible with most products, however when mixing with multiple products or new products for the first time a simple jar test is recommended.
- Recommendations
For fertigation apply 7.0-10.0kg per Ha per growing season. For foliar application use at 1.0-2.0kg per Ha depending upon crop. For more detailed application rates please contact Engage Agro.
