Prime EC Foliar Fertilizer

Prime EC Foliar Fertilizer

This product is an emulsifiable concentrate, hence  highly miscible in water.  The plant nutrients including the trace elements are in chelated form and highly assimilable.  Chelation is a process which provides the elements to be “locked-up” while in solution and then released gradually at the rate that the plant cells can absorb them through the cell wall opening called stomata. The elements are therefore more efficiently absorbed and losses are minimized due to volatilization.

The product also contains other functional compounds such as a chelating agent, an emulsifier, a surfactant and stabilizing agent to make the product more effective and efficient as a foliar fertilizer.  The emulsifying agent, for example, breaks-up the molecular solution into finer globules as well as diminishing or reducing the repelling action between the oil- and the water-based elements.  The surface active agent or surfactant enhances the spreadability of the solution on the leaf surface.  The stabilizing agent minimizes the volatility of the nutrients while being applied during the time of spraying. It also serves as a good buffer to keep the pH of the solution at optimum levels.

The scientific preparation of the product ensures, if properly applied as per suggestion of the manufacturer, as an effective source of  plant nutrients which chemical fertilizers cannot provide.  This product provides the plant its complete food for better growth and performance including higher yield.  It will also render the plant more resistant to pests and diseases, not prone to lodging and lead to better quality product.
