About Product
Katyayani Zinc EDTA 12% is a premium-quality chelated micronutrient fertilizer designed to correct and prevent zinc deficiency in crops. The EDTA (Ethylene Diamine Tetraacetic Acid) chelation ensures that zinc remains fully soluble and bioavailable to plants even under adverse soil pH conditions. It plays a vital role in various enzymatic, hormonal, and metabolic activities within the plant, improving overall health, chlorophyll production, and yield. Suitable for use in all major field and horticultural crops, this formulation can be used via foliar spray or drip/drenching methods.

Mode of Action
Zinc EDTA enters the plant system through foliar absorption or root uptake (via drip/drenching) and is translocated to growing parts. Zinc functions as a co-factor in several enzyme systems that regulate auxin (growth hormone) synthesis, protein metabolism, and chlorophyll formation. This enables healthy leaf development, strong root systems, and uniform crop growth. Chelation with EDTA prevents zinc fixation in the soil, ensuring higher nutrient efficiency.
