Published on: 11/25/2024

Shakti Vardhak Hybrid Seeds Pvt. Ltd. Has started using the MET treatment on various seeds for better nutrient availability and enhanced plant growth, resulting in better yields. Here is a brief on What and How is MET technology beneficial for plants:

MET is a proprietary delivery Technology developed by EXCEL AG USA. This Technology enhances the bio-availability of nutrients to the plants, where it is required.

MET
  • MET enables the Encapsulation of individual nutrients with organic compounds to neutralize the charge on individual minerals, thus keeping them inert in a solution without any macro-nutrient antagonism.

 

  • This helps smooth the movement of minerals in the Xylem and Phloem without being trapped on the seed coat or leaf cuticle and allows absorption and translocation of nutrients in the plant cells.

 

  • Keeping multiple nutrients stable in a solution is a big challenge due to the positive and negative charges of Macro and Micronutrients. Micro Encapsulation helps in achieving a complete synergistic product for efficient and fast delivery of nutrients to growing points leading to early & better germination, increased root & shoot mass and plant vigor.
