About Chelated Calcium (CA-10%) Micronutrient

Chelated calcium is a highly efficient form of calcium fertilizer where the calcium ion is bound to an organic molecule, known as a chelating agent. This process protects the calcium from reacting with other elements in the soil, ensuring it remains stable and readily available for plant uptake. This is a significant advantage over non-chelated calcium sources, which can become insoluble and "locked up" in certain soil conditions.

How chelated calcium works :

Improved mobility: Unlike regular calcium, which is largely immobile in plants and soil, certain chelating agents like sugar alcohol can help move the calcium throughout the plant's tissues.
Wider pH range: Chelates keep calcium soluble and available to plants across a broader soil pH range, including in alkaline or high-pH soils where nutrient lockout is common.
Foliar absorption: The organic ligand of the chelate allows calcium to penetrate the waxy leaf surface more effectively than traditional sources. This makes foliar application a highly efficient way to correct deficiencies.

Benefits of chelated calcium in agriculture

Chelated calcium offers several key benefits for enhancing crop production and plant health:

Corrects deficiencies: It effectively prevents and corrects calcium-related disorders like blossom-end rot in tomatoes and bitter pit in apples, improving fruit quality.
Strengthens cell walls: Calcium is a vital component of plant cell walls. Chelated calcium ensures robust cell wall formation, leading to stronger plants, stems, and fruits.
Enhances disease resistance: By strengthening plant tissue, it improves the plant's natural defenses against pathogens and pests.
Increases stress tolerance: It helps plants cope with environmental stressors, such as drought, heat, and salinity.
Improves yield and quality: Providing readily available calcium ensures optimal plant development, leading to higher crop yields and enhanced quality.
Boosts other nutrient uptake: Adequate calcium can improve the plant's absorption of other essential nutrients, such as potassium and phosphorus.
