OMEX Primer - Model Cu -Ultimate Copper Seed Nutrition
Primer Cu Ultimate Copper Seed Nutrition is a specialized agricultural product designed to optimize the nutrient intake of seeds. With an analysis composition of 0-22-3, containing 3.4% zinc and 3.4% copper, it provides essential trace minerals that promote robust root development, particularly beneficial in heavy clay soils as observed in Manitoba in 2016. This product is engineered for precise application during the early stages of seed growth, addressing common issues such as leggy seedlings with bent stems by tackling both environmental and nutritional deficiencies. The product is available in multiple size options, including 10-liter totes, catering to varying agricultural needs. As a part of the OMEX Group of Companies, OMEX Agriculture Inc. offers this nutrient solution as a strategic input for enhancing crop vigor and stress resilience right from the start.
