Chelated Zinc 12% (Zn-EDTA)
Chelated Zinc 12% is a premium EDTA-chelated zinc micronutrient fertilizer, 100% guaranteed chelated with Ethylene Diamine Tetra Acetic Acid (EDTA), designed to overcome zinc deficiency in crops quickly and efficiently. India has one of the highest rates of zinc-deficient agricultural soils in the world — and zinc deficiency is the most common micronutrient problem affecting Indian crops. Chelated Zinc 12% gives farmers the most bioavailable, fast-acting solution to this problem, outperforming conventional zinc sulphate in both speed of availability and absorption efficiency.
Why Plants Need Chelated Zinc 12%
Zinc is an essential micronutrient that activates a large number of enzymes involved in growth regulation, protein synthesis, and carbohydrate metabolism. It plays a key role in the production of chlorophyll and auxins — the natural plant hormones responsible for cell elongation and stem growth. Zinc is also critical for flower production, pollen germination, fruit and seed setting, and the plant’s ability to convert starches into sugars. When zinc is deficient, farmers typically notice stunted growth, small crinkled leaves, interveinal yellowing on young leaves, delayed flowering, poor fruit set, and significantly reduced yield.
How Chelated Zinc 12% Works
The EDTA chelation in Chelated Zinc 12% protects zinc ions from reacting with phosphates, carbonates, and other soil elements that would fix the zinc into unavailable forms — a major limitation of conventional zinc sulphate fertilizers, especially in high pH and calcareous soils. Chelated Zinc 12% remains fully plant-available across a wide soil pH range of 5.0 to 10.0, ensuring reliable zinc delivery even in soils where other zinc sources completely fail. Once absorbed through leaves or roots, it is partly systemic and easily translocated within the plant, reaching deficient growing points quickly. Unlike zinc sulphate, Chelated Zinc 12% does not reduce phosphorus uptake — in fact, it increases phosphorus content in roots, supporting better overall nutrient balance in treated crops.
Key Benefits of Chelated Zinc 12%
- Corrects zinc deficiency quickly across all soil types and pH levels
- 80-90% uptake efficiency — far superior to conventional zinc sources
- Boosts chlorophyll production for greener, healthier leaves
- Improves enzyme activity, protein synthesis, and plant metabolism
- Supports better flowering, pollen germination, and fruit setting
- Does not scorch leaves and does not reduce phosphorus uptake
- Compatible with most fertilizers and crop protection products
When to Apply
- At First Signs of Deficiency — apply as soon as stunted growth or leaf yellowing appears
- Vegetative Stage — for healthy leaf and stem development
- Pre-Flowering Stage — to support better flower initiation and pollen germination
Suitable Crops
Chelated Zinc 12% is suitable for all crops including rice, wheat, maize, banana, mango, grapes, pomegranate, apple, citrus, tomato, potato, okra, capsicum, cucumber, groundnut, cotton, soybean, and all other vegetable, fruit, cereal, pulse, and spice crops. For stronger root development and even better zinc absorption, many farmers also use it alongside Humic Acid 98% Flakes which improves soil health and nutrient availability, and Fulvic Acid 80% which speeds up zinc transport directly into plant cells.
Storage Instructions
Store Chelated Zinc 12% in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep the container tightly sealed after every use to prevent moisture absorption and caking. Keep out of reach of children and animals.
