Biota Copper
Biota Copper is a concentrated copper fertiliser complexed with lignosulphonic acid and part of our liquid organic single fertiliser line. Due to the unique production process, the nutrients are 100% present in solution and can therefore be taken up directly by the plant. The product is allowed for use in organic agri- and horticulture.
Copper is an essential element in photosynthesis. In the absence of copper, young leaves will curl, hang limp and get a faint blue glow. This is easily prevented by applying a proper fertilisation scheme, but can also be corrected by adding extra copper. The correct application of Biota Copper ensures an increased resistance of the plant. This is due to optimum formation of lignin, which ensures a watertight cell wall.

Biota Copper can be used on all crops through foliar application and irrigation. When used as primary fertiliser, the application is equal to mineral fertilisers. It is advised to always have an expert make a fertilisation plan and to start with a test application. The exact dosage depends on the soil conditions and the crop. No guarantees can be given in the event of incorrect use. Always carry out a test mixing and test application when combining with other products!
