Microelements, the same as other factors, are responsible for the volume of harvest and its quality.

Microelements are subdivided into:

• 5 metals (consumed by plants in the form of bivalent cations or in form of chelates):
  • Fe = iron;
  • Mn = magnesium;
  • Zn = zinc;
  • Cu = copper;
  • Mo = molybdenum (assimilated in form of ion (MoO4)2-).
• 2 nonmetals:
  • Cl = chlorine, consumed by plants in form of ion (Cl)— (essential for some crops, takes part in osmotic pressure regulation and increases resistance of plants to some fungi;
  • B = boron, consumed by plants in form of (H2BO3)-;
• Specific microelements essential for some crops:
  • Na = sodium (Na)+ (in some crops (white beets) can partly replace potassium
  • Si = silicon (used in form of silicate, increases the grain crops stem strength, reduces lodging);
  • Co = cobalt (necessary first of all for leguminous plants for better nitrogen fixation).

Microelements can be applied both as a complex fertilizer component and an an independent fertilizer.

Various crops are sensitive to the lack of certain microelements:

• Grain crops : Cu и Mn;
• Corn: Zn;
• Grain legumes: B, Mo и Со;
• Oil-yielding crops: B;
• White beet: Mn, B, Na;
• Potato: B and Cu;
• Rice: Zn;
• Cotton: Mn, B и Zn.
