- Numafer is a high-quality chelated iron fertilizer containing 6.32% iron in EDDHA form, of which 3.5% is ortho-ortho – the most stable and best-absorbed form in alkaline and calcareous soils. It corrects iron deficiency, which causes leaf yellowing and weak growth, by stimulating chlorophyll formation and photosynthetic activity, restoring the plant's natural green color and boosting shoot and root growth. Numafer stays effective for long periods under highly alkaline conditions and helps the uptake of other micronutrients such as zinc, manganese and copper, improving plant vigor and crop quality. It suits all crops including vegetables, fruit trees and citrus, and is the ideal solution for growers in areas with alkaline soils or poor iron uptake.
Key Features:
- Contains Fe-EDDHA, the most stable form in alkaline and calcareous soils.
- Quickly corrects leaf yellowing (chlorosis) caused by iron deficiency.
- Stimulates chlorophyll formation and keeps plants deep green.
- Supports shoot and root growth and boosts crop vigor.
- Improves uptake of other micronutrients such as zinc and manganese.
- Suitable for all crops and all irrigation systems.
- Long-lasting effect, reducing the need for frequent re-application.
