ADOB® FeK DTPA – 11%

ADOB® Fe DTPA – 11% is a unique fertilizer specially designed to correct iron deficiency in plants in relatively high pH conditions (up to 7.5-8). Due to the patented manufacturing process, ADOB® Fe DTPA – 11% is characterized by several unique properties.

• The entire iron concentration in the product (11% w/w) is 100% chelated by the DTPA chelating agent, making it effective and fully available to plants.
• Unique, “raspberry” shaped microgranules that are dust free. The product is not hygroscopic and self-dissolving, does not require stirring. Product solubility: 800g/l at 20˚C.
• Since the manufacturing process does not contain sulfates, chlorides or nitrates, the product is anion free.
• In addition to iron, the product contains 9% K2O, one of the most important macroelements needed by plants, which is fully available to plants.
• Does not contain sodium, which is especially important in greenhouses and soils with high salinity. Therefore, there is no risk of sodium accumulation

Iron is crucial in the redox reaction of various cytochromes during respiration and photosynthesis. It is also involved in the functioning of oxidative enzymes such as catalase and peroxidase, as well as in the biosynthesis of chlorophyll. In addition, it participates in various stages of nitrate reduction in plants. The most common symptom of iron deficiency, leaf chlorosis, is mainly caused by the inability of plant roots to take up iron when it is in the Fe3+ oxidation state and when its solubility is extremely low (< 10-15 m). This is directly related to its tendency to form Fe hydroxides, oxyhydroxides and oxides in gaseous alkaline soils. ADOB® FeK DTPA – 11% provides rapid correction of iron deficiency and treats the physiological disorders listed above. Primarily recommended for foliar application, hydroponics and fertigation. Recommended for preventive and corrective purposes in all agricultural and horticultural crops.
