Chelated iron micronutrient for high-pH soils
EDDHA-Fe — Iron EDDHA Chelate
EDDHA-Fe 6% is a fully water-soluble iron chelate that keeps iron plant-available where sulphate and EDTA-Fe break down. It is the reference correction for lime-induced iron chlorosis in high-pH and calcareous soils.

APPLICATIONS
Uses & crop applications
EDDHA-Fe 6% corrects iron chlorosis (lime-induced leaf yellowing) in soils where other iron sources fail, and can be applied through several delivery methods.
- Foliar spray to green up chlorotic new growth
- Drip irrigation and fertigation (water-soluble feeding)
- Soil drench and root-zone application in high-pH, calcareous soils
- Suited to fruit trees, citrus, grapevines, vegetables and ornamentals prone to iron deficiency
