MYR CALCIUM

Organic nitrogen fertilizer with Calcium

The importance of Calcium
Calcium is present in plants in quite high quantities, localized in the cell walls and on the outer surface of the plasma membrane. Calcium is indispensable for the cell division and stretching and if absent, the radical growth is quickly inhibited. This element intervenes in the activation of various enzymes and delays the foliar senescence. Calcium, moreover, helps the germination, the pollen formation and the radical development. It can also neutralize some toxic organic acids produced by the plant while breathing.

Calcium deficiency
The Calcium deficiency breaks out with the reduction of the growth of the vegetative apex and the youngest leaves, which can show also necrosis and curls or deformations. The deficiency breaks out, also, with the dissolution of the cell walls of fruits and back-up organs, whose tissues become soft and marcescent. In some vegetal species, the deficiency is very frequent and appears with necrotic spots (i.e.: bitter apple-scab) and apex rot (i.e. tomato).
Calcium is almost motionless inside the vegetal tissues: very quick growths of plants, excessive fertilizations with ammoniac nitrogen and hard rains can enhance its deficiency.

Why MYR CALCIUM
MYR CALCIUM is a fluid fertilizer properly studied to prevent and cure the Calcium deficiency. Its efficacy derives from the fact that it is combined with the presence of gluconic acid and laevorotation amino acids of vegetal origin. The gluconic acid is a natural chelating agent, non photodegradable and stable, with pH between 2 and 8.

MYR CALCIUM is just ready for the use thanks to the presence of amino acids and vegetal humic acids, making it highly soluble and assimilable, in such way to help plants to overcome the stress induced by the nutritional imbalance quickly.
Moreover, the stimulating action of the soluble humic substances on the roots makes the effect of MYR CALCIUM quick and complete also in sewaging.
