Characteristics – Features

Gluconates are the safe copper form for spraying even during the flowering and fruit-setting stages.
It is also a hidden protective element in preventing fungal diseases and plays an effective role in treating gummosis on fruit trees.
The role of copper (Cu) in plants:
It is a moderately mobile element in the plant and is absorbed in the form of Cu++ cations. 
It is immobile in the soil, so it strongly binds to humic complexes.
Microorganisms consume a large amount of it, and as a result, plants in organic soils and new lands show significant symptoms of copper deficiency.
The essential functions of copper:
Copper (Cu) is involved in the formation of some oxidation-reduction enzymes in plants.
An essential element in the formation of chlorophyll and plays an active role in the process of photosynthesis.
It limits the toxicity of micronutrients such as zinc and manganese.
It plays a role in the nitrogen reaction within the plant, as it has a primary role in protein formation (therefore, the absorption of copper increases in the presence of amino acids).And that point is extremely important.
It increases the plant's self-resistance (enhances the efficiency of the plant's immune system) against many fungal diseases.
It reduces the toxicity of pesticides due to its enhancement of the plant's immunity and its ability to withstand stressful conditions.
Symptoms of copper deficiency Cu:
Pale and curling of new leaves followed by wilting at the leaf tips.
A decrease in pollen vitality, leading to a reduction in the number of set flowers.
The occurrence of the phenomenon of retrogressive death in branches (Die back)
When it is deficient in citrus fruits, the amount of juice inside the fruits decreases, especially in sour lemons.
