Mineral supplementation in plants via amino acid chelation
1991
Jeppsen, R.B.
Plants must obtain their vital nutrients by absorption from air, water, and/or soil. Improvements in bioavailability and assimilation can be gained through the use of amino acid chelates of the required minerals. Research presented compares metal amino acid chelates with complementary EDTA or inorganic sources. Data for corn, tomatoes, apples, potatoes and wheat indicate improvement through the supplementation of amino acid chelates of various metals. When increased bioavailability and anabolic usage are coupled with a multiple ratio assessment of all nutrients compared to each other, as determined by plant assays from crop to crop, optimal amounts and proportions of the amino acid chelates can be supplemented and significantly improved crop yields can result.
