EDTA Zinc 9 is an EDTA chelated zinc solution designed for use in most soil applied liquid fertilizers and foliar sprays. Zinc is an important component of various enzymes that are responsible for driving many metabolic reactions in all crops. Growth and development would stop if specific enzymes were not present in plant tissue. Carbohydrate, protein, and chlorophyll formation is significantly reduced in zinc-deficient plants.
