About Product
-
Ruby Fe is an iron micronutrient mixture offered by Multiplex.
- It contains iron in chelated form (Fe EDTA - 12 %).
- The chelated form of iron makes it easily available to the plant when applied as foliar spray.
Ruby Fe Composition & Technical Details
-
Composition: Contains Ferrous (Fe) 12.0% in the form of Fe EDTA (Ethylene Diamine Tetra Acetic Acid)
-
Mode of Action: Fe is chelated with EDTA, which protects it from reacting with other elements in the soil and ensures that it remains available for plant uptake. When used as a foliar application, it is rapidly absorbed into the leaves. Once in the plant, Fe is transported to various locations where it is needed for critical operations.

Additional Information
- Multiplex Ruby Fe is generally compatible with many other agricultural products, but there are a few considerations to keep in mind.
- Always add Multiplex Ruby Fe to the spray tank first, followed by other products. This helps ensure proper mixing and effectiveness.
- Ensure the pH of the spray solution is within the recommended range (usually slightly acidic) to maintain the stability of the chelated iron.
- Before mixing with other products, perform a small jar test to check for any adverse reactions such as precipitation or clumping.
- Avoid mixing with highly alkaline products as they can reduce the effectiveness of the chelated iron.
