Amino Acid Chelated Calcium
High-Purity Amino Acid Chelated Calcium for Fertilizer Manufacturing and Specialty Crop Nutrition
Amino Acid Chelated Calcium Ingredient for Modern Fertilizer Formulations
Amino Acid Chelated Calcium is a premium water-soluble calcium fertilizer produced by chelating calcium with amino acids, primarily glycine. Containing 10% calcium and 25% amino acids, it provides highly efficient calcium nutrition while enhancing nutrient absorption and plant metabolism.
Compared with conventional calcium fertilizers, amino acid chelated calcium offers superior foliar absorption, improved calcium mobility, and reduced risk of precipitation. The amino acid carrier promotes rapid nutrient uptake and helps plants better tolerate environmental stress, making it an ideal solution for high-value crops.
It is widely used in foliar fertilizers, fertigation programs, greenhouse production, hydroponics, and specialty crop nutrition.
Key Benefits
Dual Nutritional Function
Supplies both highly available calcium and amino acids to support healthy plant growth.
Superior Foliar Absorption
Small amino acid molecules facilitate rapid calcium uptake through leaf surfaces, improving application efficiency.
Improves Fruit Quality
Helps reduce physiological disorders caused by calcium deficiency while improving firmness, shelf life, and marketability.
Improved Stress Resistance
Amino acids help plants tolerate drought, heat, transplant shock, and other environmental stresses.
