As new fertilizers such as water-soluble fertilizers and microbial agents become more and more popular, in order to improve the effect of fertilizers, manufacturers with R&D capabilities have gradually begun to add some organic and inorganic nutrients to water-soluble fertilizers and microbial agents. For example, polyglutamic acid and other nutrients have greatly improved the fertilizer efficiency. Many farmers may wonder why polyglutamic acid should be added to water-soluble fertilizers? Today we will talk about the role of polyglutamic acid in agriculture. In simple terms, polyglutamic acid has four main functions:
- Strong hydrophilicity and water retention capacity:
Strong hydrophilicity and water retention capacity ensure that water and nutrients can be effectively distributed around the root system, allowing crops to absorb and utilize more, greatly reducing the loss of water and fertilizers such as evaporation and leakage, and improving the absorption and utilization rate of water-soluble fertilizers. The effect is more obvious in areas with water shortage or water shortage or areas with convenient drip irrigation.
- Promote the absorption of phosphorus fertilizer and trace elements:
Polyglutamic acid has multiple negative charges, which can effectively prevent the combination of acid ions such as sulfate and phosphate with calcium, magnesium ions and trace elements, and avoid the production of low-soluble salts and precipitation. Therefore, it can promote the absorption and utilization of trace elements and nutrients such as phosphorus fertilizer.
- Enhance plant disease prevention and stress resistance:
Polyglutamic acid itself has a natural promoting effect on the roots of crops, helping the regeneration of root hairs and the growth of the root system, thereby improving the ability of the underground part of crops to absorb nutrients. In adverse environments such as drought, waterlogging and low temperature, it effectively ensures the normal absorption of water and nutrients, and buffers the damage caused to the root system of crops by drought, waterlogging and cold environments. Integrate plant nutrition with water-active components in the soil, and increase the ability to resist salt, drought, stress and fertility loss.
- Reduce fertilizer use and increase yield:
Polyglutamic acid is a polymer of glutamic acid, which is biodegradable and friendly to the environment. It plays a good role in improving the utilization rate of fertilizers and extending the effective period of fertilizers, thereby reducing the amount of fertilizers used, increasing quality and yield, and achieving higher economic benefits and lower costs.
After this type of polyglutamic acid water-soluble fertilizer is applied to crops, it can effectively make the leaves of crops thicker, the color darker green, the root system more developed, the disease resistance stronger, and the crop quality and yield higher. It has a great benefit effect on crops.
