How it Works
MicroEdge Zinc™ is fully chelated with EDTA to reduce nutrient tie up in the soil and therefore increase nutrient efficiency and availability to plants.
In the EDTA chelating process, a ring-like structure is placed around the micronutrient, protecting it from being tied up with the soil or other nutrients, thus ultimate nutrient availability to the plant is assured and deficiencies can be corrected.

In-Furrow, Banded, Side-Dress & Foliar Applications
In-Furrow: 1-2 pints/acre
2x2 or Banded: 1 quart/acre
Broadcast: 2-4 quarts/acre, incorporated in 3-5 inches of topsoil
Foliar: 1-2 pints/acre in a minimum 10 gallons of water
Aerial: 1-2 pints/acre in a minimum of 1 gallon of water
Benefits
Nutrient Availability
- Contains 4.5% nitrogen and 9% fully EDTA chelated zinc
- Fully chelated micronutrient liquid formulation
Crop Health
- Provides available micronutrients where they usually are blocked due to high pH or carbonates
- Makes trace elements available to the plant, mobile in the soil and stable in the fertilizer formulations
- Compatible with most fertilizer formulations, especially in calcium and phosphate-based products
Ease of Use
- MicroEdge Zinc can be applied in-furrow at planting, 2x2 or in a band, or in broadcast fertilizer applications, and can also be applied via foliar application. MicroEdge Zinc is compatible with other fertilizers, pesticides, and herbicides. Jar test prior to any application.
