It is a highly bioavailable source of calcium in the form of calcium glycine, a chelated compound that ensures efficient absorption and utilization by plants. This formulation provides essential calcium, a critical nutrient that strengthens cell walls, promotes root and shoot growth, and enhances overall plant structure. ZOTAL-CA is ideal for preventing and correcting calcium deficiencies, leading to healthier, more resilient crops.
Mode of action:
ZOTAL-CA, as a chelated form of calcium, binds calcium to the amino acid glycine, significantly improving the mobility and uptake of calcium ions through plant tissues. Once absorbed, calcium strengthens cell walls by integrating into pectins, enhancing structural integrity. It also plays a key role in intracellular signaling and enzyme activation, which are essential for cell division and elongation. Chelation prevents calcium precipitation in soil, making it more accessible to plants.
Benefits:
Rapid correction of calcium deficiencies
Strengthens cell walls, improving fruit firmness
Enhances root and shoot development
Improves nutrient transport within the plant
Prevents disorders like blossom end rot and leaf tip burn
