Copper Sulphate
Copper Sulphate
Copper Sulphate (CuSO₄·5H₂O) is a widely used agricultural micronutrient fertilizer that supplies essential copper (Cu) and sulphur (S) to crops. Copper plays a critical role in photosynthesis, enzyme activation, lignin synthesis, and overall plant metabolism. It enhances plant vigor, reproductive growth, and disease resistance. Sulphur further supports protein synthesis and chlorophyll formation. Copper Sulphate is highly effective in correcting copper deficiency, ensuring healthier crops and improved yields.

Usage Note
1)Soil Application: 4–6 kg per acre depending on crop and soil deficiency.
2)Foliar Spray: 0.2–0.3% solution (2–3 g per liter of water).
3)Seed Treatment: 2–3 g per kg of seed (ensure proper coating).
4)Fungicidal Use: As per recommended formulations (e.g., Bordeaux mixture).
5)Avoid over-application, as excess copper can be phytotoxic.
