Copper(II) sulfate

Copper has an essential function in human health and for plant growth. Its essential status for plant nutrition was not recognized until 1931. Normal Cu concentrations in plants range from 5 to 20 ppm. Plant roots absorb the divalent form (Cu2+; cupric) and can readily reduce it to the monovalent form (Cu+; cuprous). The ease of converting Cu back and forth between the cupric and cuprous forms gives Cu unique functions in the plant. Copper plays roles in photosynthesis and respiration, including the final transfer of electrons to oxygen. Copper helps form lignin in cell walls, which provide support to hold plants upright. It is particularly important to the formation of viable pollen, seed set and stress resistance.

• Contains two elements copper and sulfur
• Increasing the speed of plant photosynthesis and metabolism of carbohydrates and proteins
• Antifungal title to control bacterial viruses and fungal diseases of products
• Increasing the transfer of nutrients and carbohydrates to the stems and leaves of the plant
• Preventing the removal of stains on the leaves of plants and wounding of the skin of fruits
• Synthesis of chlorophyll
• Stimulation and formation of vitamin A
• It plays an important role in the biosynthesis and activity of ethylene as a fruit ripening hormone

• Use as a weed killer

NOTES

The doses indicated must be split up during the cycle.
Repeat every 7-14 days or more as required.
In the solution reaching the crops the product concentration
must not, in general, exceed 2‰, taking care to program different concentrations according to the sensitivity to salinity of the various crops.
It is good practice to dissolve not more than 10 kg of product for every 100 litres of water.
