What is F.T.E ?

Outline

Nutrients indispensable for the growth of crops are classified into major and minor (trace) elements. Major elements are absorbed by plants in quantities, while trace elements absorbed in a minute quantity but essential for the healthy growth of crops. If soil is lacking in one or more of trace elements, plants will suffer from some abnormality or show the symptoms of deficiency. F·T·E (fritted trace elements) has been developed by a professional smelting technology of glass frit, and is vitreous micronutrient fertilizer essential to the growth of crops such as fruits, vegetables, rice, beans, beet, tea, flower, tobacco, etc. to be usually applied to soil together with N?P?K major fertilizers.

Features

F.T.E is dissolved slowly by the acid in soil and excreted from plant roots, and releases trace elements which are absorbed by plants gradually. Therefore, its effect continues efficiently without excess damages for a long time. F.T.E is the eco- friendly fertilizer not to pollute soil or groundwater.
