      Product Description

    MIKROCHELAT Cu-15 contains 150 g Cu per kg (15% Cu). Copper is fully chelated by EDTA.

    Copper in the form of chelate is rapidly absorbed, transported, and assimilated by plants. 

     

    MIKROCHELAT Cu-15 is certified for use in organic farming.

     

    MIKROCHELATE Cu-15 is intended for use in different fertilization techniques including:

    • Foliar nutrition;
    • Fertigation (in inert or organic substrates, in the ground);
    • Soil spraying, soil watering or scattering after mixing with other soil fertilizers.

    MIKROCHELATE Cu-15 can also be used as:

    • A component of liquid or powder fertilizer mixtures;
    • A Copper source for other chemicals.

     

    Copper supplied to plants in MIKROCHELAT Cu-15 is:

    • Efficiently and quickly taken up by plants from solutions in foliar nutrition, in fertilization treatments combined with watering (fertigation), and from the soil after soli fertilization;
    • Safe for plants in all treatment techniques (according to the recommended doses);
    • Stable in multicomponent solutions used in foliar treatments, fertigation, and soil spraying;
    • Stable in a wide pH range of solutions / media;
    • Stable in soils with a wide pH range.

    MIKROCHELAT Cu-15 is essential for crops with high demand for copper, i.e. cereals, rice, flax, citrus, onion, carrot, beetroot, lettuce, spinach. It is also recommended for soil conditions restricting the availability of copper for plants (high pH, high permeability coefficient, high organic matter content, soils used for cultivation for short time and soils rich in humus, the so-called, "virgin land disease").

     

    MIKROCHELAT Cu-15 used preventively in the recommended periods and doses prevents copper deficiency in plants.

    MIKROCHELAT Cu-15 used as intervention effectively eliminates copper deficiency and reduces negative effects of such periodic scarcity.

    Intervention nutrition is necessary in case of visual symptoms of copper deficiency on plants or when the results of the analysis of the plant material indicate too low content of copper (hidden deficiencies).

     

    Copper supplied in MIKROCHEALT Cu-15 has a positive effect on the size and quality of yield. Copper in the plant affects and improves the:

    • Development of young parts of plants and their subsequent growth and fruit ripening;
    • Development of vascular tissue which includes the efficient transport of water and nutrients in plants;
    • Mechanical strength of plants (e.g. greater resistance of cereals to lodging);
    • The use of nitrogen;
    • Biomass gain and quality parameters of the yield;
    • Health of plants during cultivation and storage.

     

    MIKROCHELAT Cu-15 has a very good performance properties including:

    • Fast solubility due to the unique structure of ultra-granules;
    • Total solubility – a solution formed after reconstitution ultra-granules is precipitation free;
    • Very good solubility in cold and hard water;
    • No dust during pouring into the tank with water;
    • High resistance to external factors during storage (no clumping).

     

     Physical and chemical properties of MIKROCHELAT Cu-15 chelate solutions include:

    • The product is stable in the pH range of 2–10;
    • Solubility in deionized water – 1000 g/L;
    • EC in deionized water: 0.1 % solution – 0.4 mS/cm;
    • pH in deionized water: 0.1 % solution – 5.6.

     

      Directions for Use

    MIKROCHELAT Cu-15 may be used in different fertilization techniques, including foliar sprays, fertigation, soil spraying, soil watering and scattering after mixing with other fertilizers.

     

    1. FOLIAR SPRAYS
      MIKROCHELAT Cu-15 is intended for foliar application in the form of an aqueous solution. MIKROCHELAT Cu-15 can be used together with other agrochemicals after conducting a miscibility test. Test results are presented in the table INTERMAG agrochemicals mixing table.
      Detailed recommendations for foliar application are presented in the table below. You can also use the search engine and quickly find the dose rate and time of foliar application for your crop. Select your crop

    Carefully select the number of treatments, so as to not exceed a dose of Cu safe to plants.

    Use MIKROCHELAT Cu-15 as intervention in the case of visual symptoms of copper deficiency in plants or if too low content of this component in plants has been diagnosed. Treatments should be performed every 3–7 days until deficiency disappears. When performing more than 1 treatment, use MIKROCHELAT Cu-15 at the lower recommended dose.

    Dose rates of MIKROCHELAT Cu-15 include:

    • Agricultural crops, fruit shrubs, strawberry: 0.2–1 kg/ha
    • Fruit trees, grapevine: 0.5–1 kg/ha
    • Vegetables, ornamental plants: 0.1–0.5 kg/ha

    Use MIKROCHELAT Cu-15 preventively in periods and doses given below.

     

    1. FERTIGATION (fertilizing combined with watering) of crops in inert or organic substrates, in the ground
      Specific recommendations (medium composition and the frequency of application) shall take into account the nutritional requirements of plants and agronomic and climatic conditions of cultivation (including the type of substrate).
      The calculations shall take into account the content of copper (Cu) in other fertilizers used to prepare the medium and in water used to prepare the medium.
    • Fertigation in inert substrates and coconut substrate, and hydroponic cultivation (medium supplied continuously or repeatedly during the day).
      Most frequently recommended copper (Cu) content in a ready to use medium is 0.1–0.3 mg Cu / L (i.e. 0.7–2 g of MIKROCHELAT Cu-15 in 1,000 L). When preparing concentrated solutions, the dose rate of MIKROCHELAT Cu-15 should be increased accordingly.
    • Fertigation in organic substrates and in the ground (medium supplied periodically - repeatedly during the vegetation period).
      When using MIKROCHELAT Cu-15 with other fertilizers in a ready to use medium, do not exceed a total concentration of 0.2% of all ingredients (i.e. 2 kg and/or L in 1,000 L of medium).

    Recommended amount of MIKROCHELAT Cu-15 in the whole growing season (in divided doses max. 0.5 kg/ha in one cycle):

    • Agricultural crops - spray irrigation (cereals, soybean and other legumes, rapeseed, cotton, maize, sunflower, potato, sugar cane): 1–3 kg/ha
    • Pome and stone fruit trees, nuts, grapevine, citrus, mango, avocado, olive trees, banana trees, palm trees, coffee, pineapple: 2–4 kg/ha
    • Fruit shrubs, strawberry: 4–6 kg/ha
    • Vegetables: 0.5–1.5 kg/ha
    • Ornamental plants: 0.5–0.8 kg/ha

     

    1. SOIL SPRAYING, SOIL WATERING, SCATTERING after mixing with other soil fertilizers
      Spray the soil with an aqueous solution of chelate before sowing or seedlings planting, or use in combination with other soil fertilizers.

    Recommended amount of MIKROCHELAT Cu-15 in the whole growing season: 2–3 kg/ha

     

    Ad. 1. Recommendations for foliar application for selected crops.
    The recommendations may be modified taking into account the plants' requirements and growing conditions.


    ATTENTION!  At low air humidity avoid using a solution of concentration greater than 0.1% (1 kg fertilizer/1,000 L of water). In fruit trees spraying and at low air humidity avoid using a solution of concentration greater than 0.1% (1 kg fertilizer/1,000 L of water). For foliar treatments on crops under cover do not exceed a concentration of 0.1%.
