Product overviewMicrap Calcio is a liquid calcium fertilizer (solution of calcium chloride) containing 15% water-soluble CaO and plant-origin amino acids. Intended for foliar use to prevent and correct calcium-related physiological disorders in fruit and vegetable crops.
Characteristics and mode of actionMicrap Calcio supplies bioavailable calcium while amino acids act as carriers and biostimulants, improving calcium uptake into cells. Calcium contributes to cell division, meristem growth, pollen formation and regulation of transpiration and water balance.
