GOLDEN FER is a soil conditioner composed of 6% of iron chelated by EDDHA, of which 4.8% is present as the ortho – ortho isomer. It is suitable for all types of agricultural crops. GOLDEN FER provides stability and helps to maintain iron in calcareous soils or at high pH, favoring good concentrations of the mineral in order to preserve the health of crops upon its application.
System and time of application
GOLDEN FER can be applied to all types of soil through irrigation systems and water or directly in soil. In medium-textured soils GOLDEN FER can be sprinkled on the soil bed at a concentration of 10g/L and then proceeding with irrigation on the shadow parts. In this case, you should not spend a lot of time between application and irrigation of the fields.
In soils with a harder bed layer, you must first remove the surface and then apply GOLDEN FER with irrigation water.
To be applied directly to the crops, dissolve GOLDEN FER in irrigation water, and use as it is described in the table of recommended doses.
Stability and storage
GOLDEN FER is stable for at least three years since manufacturing date. Store in the closed original container in a cool and ventilated area. DO NOT store for prolonged periods in direct sunlight. Keep away from food, drink and animal feed. Keep out of the reach of children.
Compatibility
GOLDEN FER is compatible with most fertilizers and agrochemicals commonly used on the recommended crops. If possible, perform a compatibility test in a small volume.
