EA2 Technology is innovative new technology developed keeping in mind the core motives of significantly higher nutrient uptake within the plant, without any harmful effects.
This technology ensures a very improved uptake of nutrients at much less input. The two major differences between conventional fertilizers and EA2 based fertilizers are the increase in uptake of nutrients and their movement within the plant. The effectiveness of the products is unmatched, especially against conventional fertilizers.
It is an amalgamation of various proven combinations integrated to create a range of remarkably efficient products. The proportions and ratios differ from product to product based on their targeted usage.
The targeted delivery that allows a small sealed package carrying the nutrient which opens up only when a specific desired location or site of the plant is reached.
This system can considerably reduce the response time to sense a problem in the field whenever it arises. These special fertilizers have sorption capacity, and controlled release kinetics to targeted sites.
The mode of action would differ as per the components used. However, common aspects in the usage of these products based on EA2 technology are:
A very common issue found with nutrient uptake by plants in foliar applications is the negative charge of the leaf cuticle. With EA2 technology the bonding of certain organic factors with nutrients is possible, creating a neutral charge. This subsequently assists in a higher uptake of nutrients, since the cuticle charge does not interact with the neutral molecules of the product.
The nutrient efficiency of conventional fertilizers is lowered due to the cell walls of the plant cells. The plant has to use its energy in order to facilitate the absorption of these nutrients within the cells. In times of abiotic stress conditions, it is additionally difficult for the plant to absorb the much-needed nutrients. The nutrients primarily move through the apoplastic pathway, which results in their slow, non-uniform translocation within the plant. Eventually this results in a falling effectiveness of the fertilizers.
EA2 technology uses enabling organic factor series that act as dipoles and help in bonding with nutrients. This facilitates an easy entry into the cell wall without any expense of plant energy. This enables nutrients to move through both apoplastic and symplastic pathways resulting in faster and more uniform translocation. This fact additionally helps make the products, made with EA2 technology, beneficially usable even during stress conditions.
