Abstract:

Organic approved amino acid chelate foliar fertilizer compositions, methods for making such compositions, and methods for using such compositions are described. The foliar fertilizer compositions contain only negligible amounts of wetting agents, anti-foaming agents, preservatives, anti-microbial agents, and similar additives. The foliar fertilizers are also made from starting materials that are organic-approved. Therefore, the fertilizer compositions qualify as an organic material under the respective federal or state regulations. As well, the foliar fertilizers are dried after the chelation process, rather than being kept in solution. Therefore, the foliar fertilizers can be stored and shipped inexpensively.
