Copper

• Copper is a component in numerous enzymes, many of which serve an essential purpose for the plant. 
• The importance of copper in the plant is related to reproductive processes. 
• “A few grams of copper” can often boost the production potential of many crops by hundreds of kilograms. 
• As a rule of thumb, soils with higher humus content experience a greater Cu deficiency.

Copper fertilisation can be seen to have the most pronounced effect on:

• cereals,
• vegetables,
• fruit trees,
• legumes.
