Description
Metalosate Calcium - fertiliser with a high calcium content, complexed with amino acids
What are the benefits of using the Metalosate Calcium calcium fertiliser?
- Eliminates calcium deficiency,
- Improves quality, durability and storage capacity of vegetables and fruits,
- The fertiliser is highly absorbable,
- Has high effectiveness,
- Reduces losses caused by physiological disorders,
- Reduces cracking and improves fruit firmness.
Metalosate Calcium is a fertiliser designed to improve calcium supply in vegetable and fruit tree crops. For foliar fertilisation of, among others, fruit trees and shrubs, vegetables, but also e.g. strawberries.
The calcium contained in the fertiliser is "complexed" with a unique amino acid complex. This ensures maximum fertiliser absorption and high effectiveness in increasing calcium content in fruits and leaves of fertilised plants.
Metalosate Calcium significantly improves fruit quality and reduces losses caused by physiological disorders such as: bitter pit of apples, tipburn in cabbage vegetables, blossom end rot in tomato and sweet pepper.
It also reduces cracking of sour cherry, sweet cherry and plum fruits. It significantly improves firmness and durability of soft fruits: strawberry, raspberry, currant, grapevine.
