Every micronutrient has specific roles to play in the plants. Their presence in optimum concentration is a must for the plant to complete its life cycle that ends with maturity and harvesting of the economic produce. Micronutrients are essential plant mineral nutrients taken up and utilized by crops in very small quantities. Traditionally, we have relied on what was present naturally in the soil together with amounts added as impurities in fertilizers and pesticides as the source of micronutrients for crop growth. In recent years however, deficiencies of micronutrients have been diagnosed more frequently; and many farmers are beginning to take a closer look at their general availability.
It is extremely important to be able to recognize and correct micronutrient deficiencies. When micro-nutrients become a limiting factor water, fertilizer and other high-energy production inputs may be wasted, since a plant will only grow and develop to the extent that its most limiting growth factor will allow. Zinc It is required by several enzyme systems, auxins and in protein synthesis; in seed production and rate of maturity.
Common symptoms of Zn-deficiency are stunted plant growth, poor tillering, development of light green, yellowish, bleached spots; poor tillering, development of light green, yellowish, bleached spots; chlorotic bands on either side of the midrib in maize, brown rusty spots on leaves in some crops which in acute Zn deficiency as in rice may cover the lower leaves; in fruit trees the leaves may bunch together at the tip in rosette type cluster. Little leaf condition is also a common symptom. To avoid deficiency of zinc use the following micronutrients fertilizers in soil and/or foliar spray; never use the zinc fertilizers with phosphatic fertilizers
Zinc Sulphate
1. Chelated Zinc - Used in very small quantity for foliar application compatible with phosphatic fertilizers also .2. Doctor Nature (Zn-21% ) - Zinc Sulphate Heptahydrate Premium quality white crystalline (ZnSo4.7H2O) - 21% Zn Min w/w ; Due to hygroscopic in nature it is difficult to use the with urea suitable for alkaline and saline soil.
3. Doctor Nature Plus Mono Zinc (Zn-33%) (Zinc Sulphate Mono Hydrate) – Powder (ZnSo4.H2O) - 33% Zn Min. w/w : Powder form of Mono Zinc (33% Zn) is compatible with urea it also increases the efficiency of urea by chelating the urea pills as a coating agent. Shelf life and storage is very good than zinc sulphate (Zn-21%)
4. Doctor Nature Gold Mono Zinc(super action mono zinc) - (Partially Chelated Zinc) - Powder - 12% Zn - EDTA Min. w/w . In acute deficiency of zinc, spray in of partially chelated zinc is very effective even in very small quantity.
Micronutrients ( Zn, Fe, Cu, B, Mn, Mo)

Doctor Natura plus- (Partially Chelated Micro Nutrient) Powder (Zn + Fe + Cu + Mn+ B+ Mo + N + Ca + Mg) - For any deficiency of micronutrient symptoms on the plant spraying of partially chelated micro nutrients is very effective even in very small quantity.
3. Doctor Natura gold (Chelated Micronutrients) - Used in very small quantity for foliar application compatible with phosphatic fertilizers also .
4.Doctor Nova - micronutrient mixture (Zn + Fe + Cu + Mn+ B+ Mo + N + Ca + Mg) fully suitable for foliar spray to cure the any micro nutrient deficiency symptoms
5. Doctor Boro Plus - A small amount of boron is essential for all type of crops. It's play an important role in fertilization of flowers and prevent the tubers, roots and fruits from cracking. Microbor contains 100% water soluble, readily available boron.
Iron:-
Its plays an important role in the synthesis of chlorophyll. Fe deficiency lead to failure in chlorophyll production, ferrous sulphate is best to cure the iron deficiency in all type of soil & crops.1. Ferrous Sulphate - Crystal/Powder (FeSo4.H2O) 19% Fe Min. w/w
2. Copper Sulphate - Crystal/Powder (CuSo4.5H2O) - 24% Cu Min. w/w
3. Manganese Sulphate - Powder (MnSo4.H2O) - 30.5% Mn. w/w
