Zinc - ஜிங்க்

Zinc (ஜிங்க்) — Essential Micronutrient for Crop Growth, Enzyme Activity & High Yields

Zinc is one of the most widely deficient yet critically important micronutrients in Indian agricultural soils. It plays an indispensable role in plant enzyme systems, protein synthesis, growth hormone production, and chlorophyll formation. Nalvazhi Zinc is a high-purity zinc micronutrient supplement that rapidly corrects zinc deficiency and restores healthy, vigorous crop growth.

Why is Zinc Essential for Plants?

Zinc acts as a co-factor for over 300 enzymes in plants and is essential for the synthesis of auxin (growth hormone), which controls cell elongation and shoot development. It is also critical for chlorophyll production, protein synthesis, carbohydrate metabolism, and seed formation. Zinc deficiency is one of the leading causes of yield loss in paddy, maize, wheat, and vegetable crops across India.

Signs of Zinc Deficiency

• Stunted plant growth and shortened internodes (“little leaf” syndrome)
• Yellowing (chlorosis) between leaf veins on young leaves
• Bronzing or brown discolouration of older leaves
• Delayed maturity and poor grain/seed formation
• Reduced tillering in paddy and cereals
• Poor root development and weak stems
• Khaira disease in paddy (characteristic brown spots)

Key Benefits of Nalvazhi Zinc

• Corrects zinc deficiency rapidly — visible improvement within 7–10 days of application
• Boosts enzyme activity — activates 300+ plant enzymes for efficient metabolism
• Promotes auxin synthesis — stimulates healthy shoot and root growth
• Enhances chlorophyll production — greener, healthier leaves with better photosynthesis
• Improves protein synthesis — better grain quality and nutritional value
• Increases crop yield — correcting deficiency can increase yields by 20–40%
• Strengthens plant immunity — zinc-sufficient plants are more resistant to fungal diseases
• Improves seed viability — better seed filling, germination rate, and seedling vigour

Suitable Crops

Paddy, maize, wheat, millets, sugarcane, cotton, groundnut, soybean, vegetables (tomato, chilli, brinjal, onion), fruits (mango, banana, citrus, grapes), pulses, and all plantation crops. Especially critical for paddy and maize cultivation.

How to Use

• Foliar Spray: Dissolve 2–3 g per litre of water and spray on leaves during early morning or evening. Apply at vegetative and pre-flowering stages for best results.
• Soil Application: Mix 5–10 kg per acre with sand or FYM and broadcast evenly before planting or during land preparation.
• Seed Treatment: Dissolve 2–3 g in 1 litre of water and soak seeds for 2–3 hours before sowing.
• Drip Irrigation: Dissolve recommended quantity and apply through drip system at 15–20 day intervals.
• Avoid mixing with phosphate fertilizers as they can reduce zinc availability.
