Sato® Turbo K-Zn
Sato® Turbo K-Zn is potassium humate with zinc (Zn) for foliar irrigation in zinc deficiency.
Sato® Turbo K-Zn is indicated for foliar application in case of zinc scarcity. It can be used together in a tank mixture with plant protection products and other mineral fertilizers.

Sato® Turbo K-Zn is specially designed to replenish the valuable trace element zinc (Zn). Zinc is not only involved in protein and phosphorus synthesis, but also plays a crucial role in the formation of the amino acid tryptophan, a precursor to one of the most important phytohormones – auxin. Auxins are responsible for cell division, for the growth of the root system, and for the activity of meristems, that is, undifferentiated new tissues. With a lack of zinc, the normal cell cycle is suppressed, growth slows down, and the plant does not reach its optimal potential.
Zinc increases the stress resistance of plants, especially to abiotic factors such as drought, frost, and wind. Zinc is more mobile and available to plants on slightly acidic and acidic soils, less common in neutral, carbonate and alkaline soils. Our Sato® Turbo K-Zn formulation is indicated for foliar applications regardless of soil pH.
IMPORTANT: Absorption of zinc (Zn) is blocked by phosphorus (P) and calcium (Ca), co-application is not recommended. Zinc (Zn) antagonists are iron (Fe) and manganese (Mn). It is recommended to monitor the excess and deficiency of these trace elements.
- eliminates zinc starvation;
- gives impetus to growth;
- equalizes plants after stress to reference levels;
- increases sugar content and pigmentation of red fruits (tomatoes, berries and fruits);
- thanks to humic and fulvic acids, it is integrated and fixed in the fertile layer of soils.
