Foliar fertilizer
Benefits
Foliar fertilizers provide several benefits when applied directly to plant leaves.
- Nutrients applied to leaves are absorbed more quickly than those applied to soil. This is especially useful when plants need a rapid nutrient boost, such as during times of stress or nutrient deficiency.
- Foliar feeding ensures that nutrients are delivered exactly where they are needed, reducing waste and improving nutrient use efficiency.
- If the soil has problems like poor structure, pH imbalance, or nutrient lock-up, foliar feeding ensures that plants can still receive the necessary nutrients without being dependent on soil conditions.
- Foliar fertilization can lead to better plant health, improved flowering, and enhanced fruit or crop quality, particularly in crops sensitive to micronutrient deficiencies (like zinc, iron and manganese).
- Foliar fertilizers can provide immediate support during critical growth stages like flowering or fruiting when the plant’s nutrient uptake are higher, helping plants maintain strong, healthy growth.
