Overview

About this product

Lebosol-HeptaKupfer — an inorganic complex micronutrient fertilizer with 5% water-soluble copper chelated with heptagluconic acid (HGA) (60 g/l Cu); density 1.23 kg/l, pH 8.5. Per the maker, the chelate is biodegradable, mixes well and is taken up quickly.

Copper is short on humus-rich, sandy, loose soils with high pH, in cold, on waterlogged and very dry soils; oats, wheat and barley are the most sensitive to its shortage. As a foliar spray 2–4 l/ha is applied on vegetables, oilseed rape, stone fruit and spruce, for seed treatment 0.2–0.5 l/t.

The fertilizer is on the FiBL list.
