3 Food Pyramid Micronutrients Secondary Macronutrients Primary Macronutrients

4 Nutrient for the Plant Primary Macronutrients Secondary Macronutrients Micronutrient All 17 Nutrients must be present for Plants to flourish

5 Nutrients Functions Primary & Secondary Nutrients are direct food source of the Plant Act as Catalysts in Enzymatic reactions Precursors in the Phytoalexins (Plant Immune Bodies) production Enhance the rate of cell based reactions for optimum production Maintain Ionic balance and ph levels in the cell and in the soil Vital role in the quality and productivity of the produce

6 Deficiency Symptoms in Oil Palm Cu deficiency - yellow orange leaf; mid crown chlorosis Zn deficiency - overall yellowing; small leaf B deficiency - hooked-wrinkled leaf, lack of apical growth; shortened young fronds Fe deficiency - interveinal yellowing

13 Growth Cycle The essence of micronutrients throughout the growth process Fe, Zn, Mn EDTA Germination and Establishment Fe, Zn, Mn, Cu, B EDTA Fe, B EDTA Mn, Cu, B EDTA Vegetative Growth Flowering and Reproduction Maturity and Senescence

14 Micronutrients for The Plant Micronutrients must be available and effectively absorbed by crops: Completely soluble in water Highly stable to ph changes Stable and not react with others element in soil that can form insoluble salt Provide desired quantity in low dose to crops

15 Back to... Nature Theory For Humans For Plants A balanced food is medicine to the body A balanced fertilizer is health to the plants and soil

16 Micronutrients We have set ourselves the goal of designing a new generation of organic fertilizers, taking into account all the physiological mechanisms of the Nature Theory

17 Our Product is made from EDTA combined with Chelates in unique form of Microgranules* (*) Homogeneous / Compound

18 Quality

19 Chelated level 100% 100% Soluble Microgranule Form Low Heavy Metal Content EU Origin Quality

20 Chelate /ˈkiːleɪt/ CHEMISTRY Greek word chela, meaning claw noun A complex in which a micronutrient ion is contained within a organic molecule that surrounds it like an envelope, called a ligand. verb, chelated The ligand allow a plant to readily absorb the chelated nutrients because they change the micronutrients surface property and facilitate optimal absorption. This mechanism maximizes yield of applied micronutrients in both alkaline and acidic soils. Quality

21 Chelating Process Fe Two EDTA wrapping around the metal atom Quality

22 Inorganic Nutrient Quality

23 Chelated Nutrient Quality

24 Why Chelate? Increase nutrient availability in extremely ph conditions Prevent micronutrients from clotting due to reaction with OH- and phosphate ions Reduce toxicity of some metal ion Prevent leaching Increase nutrient mobility Does not interfere reaction of metal ions and other nutrition Reduce toxicity occurrence of several metal ions in the plant Suppress plant disease development Quality
