Elements

CuCopper Copper is essential for cell wall strength, specifically in the anther where the viability of pollen formation is crucial to the yield of the plant.
Copper is important for chlorophyll production, protein synthesis, respiration, standability and the efficient use of nitrogen.

ZnZinc Zinc is essential in a wide range of plant functions as an enzyme co-factor, in protein synthesis and protein structure, hormone regulation, early root development, energy production and is key for seed formation.

SSulphur Sulphur has many critical functions in plant including: Formation of chlorophyll essential for photosynthesis. The majority of Sulphur in crops is as a constituent of three S-containing amino acids (cysteine, cystine and methionine), which are the building blocks of protein. It is important for yield and crop quality, and essential for enzyme activation, nitrogen metabolism and in oilseeds it is crucial for oil synthesis.

Copper Deficiency Symptoms

Tips begin to spiral or twist.
Light green in colour.
Poor standability.
Empty bleach/grey heads can appear like grey patches called melanosis, you can also see this discoloring on cereal stubble fields suffering from copper deficiency. Copper deficiency is often correlated with diseases such as ergot.

How It Works

Copper diffuses outside of granule up to 1/2". This creates a 1" sized feeding site.
With root inception of the feeding site the plant will receive enough copper for that year.
Remaining copper is used for soil building for future crops.
