The research on the effectiveness of trace elements has become the focus of attention in the fields of agriculture and environmental science. The effectiveness of trace elements is not only related to natural factors such as soil type, soil pH, precipitation, etc., but also easily affected by human factors such as farming system and fertilizer application method. However, we are still facing the challenge of the insufficient supply of trace elements in the soil.
The application of trace element nutritional products is the main way to solve the deficiency of trace elements, especially the application of chelated trace elements has been recognized by everyone. Common chelating agents include EDTA, DTPA, IDHA, EDDHA, HBED, etc., among which EDTA is the most common.
Citymax also provides the various kinds of chelated trace elements, and are able to offer customized EDTA mixed products according to our clients’ needs.

So what exactly are the chelated trace elements?
Chelated trace element fertilizers refer to the specialized technology of forming chelates between organic compounds (chelating agents) and trace elements (Fe, Zn, Cu, etc.).
What are the benefits of chelated trace element fertilizers?
Good water solubility.
The production process of trace elements in EDTA chelate state is very high. It exists in fine powder form and dissolves extremely quickly, which has a promoting effect on absorption effect.
Good absorbability.
Liquid trace elements have better absorption and utilization rate than general trace element fertilizers. After the metal ions of trace elements are chelated, fewer organic molecules are formed, which are absorbed by crops in the form of organic molecules and directly participate in the transformation in the crop body, effectively improving the fertilizer utilization rate and fertilization efficiency, saving costs, and reducing the fixation of trace elements by the soil after application into the soil.
Obvious effects.
Chelated trace elements are organic fertilizers. After chelation, trace elements have extremely high biological activity. Their efficacy is dozens of times that of general organic trace fertilizers, making them an indispensable part of organic fertilizers.
High stability.
Chelated trace elements can be used with various pesticides, fungicides, herbicides, chemical fertilizers etc. at the same time, achieving multiple goals at one stroke and improving work efficiency.
Environmentally friendly fertilizer.
Trace elements in EDTA chelation are green, environmentally friendly and pollution-free fertilizers, and are a must-have product for the development of organic agriculture.
