Yellowing of young leaves on calcareous soil is nearly always a fixation problem, not an absolute shortage of iron. Fartech Iron uses EDDHA as the chelating agent which, unlike EDTA and DTPA, keeps iron in solution and root-available even above pH 8. The ortho-ortho isomer content of this formulation exceeds 4.8%.
Key features
- Stable to pH 9
- Ortho-ortho above 4.8%
- Fully water soluble
- Suitable for fertigation and soil application
