Multiplex Iron Micronutrient Fertilizer: Fix Yellow Leaves & Boost Yield (Ferrous Sulphate 19%)
The ultimate cure for Iron Chlorosis. Restore deep green color and maximize photosynthesis with high-purity Ferrous Sulphate.
Are your plants showing yellow leaves with green veins? This is a classic sign of Iron deficiency, often called "Iron Chlorosis." Multiplex Iron Fertilizer contains 19% Iron and 10.5% Sulphur in a water-soluble form. It acts fast to restore chlorophyll production, ensuring your crops have the energy they need to grow, flower, and produce a heavy harvest.
Essential for Sugarcane, Paddy, Groundnut, Citrus, Grapes, and Vegetable crops.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- ⏱️Rapid Greening Effect: Quickly corrects "Interveinal Chlorosis" (yellowing), turning pale leaves green within 7–14 days.
- ?️Dual Nutrient Supply: Provides both Iron (19%) for energy and Sulphur (10.5%) for protein synthesis in one application.
- ⏳Boosts Photosynthesis: Iron is the engine of the plant; it maximizes sunlight absorption for higher biomass and sugar content.
- ?️Versatile Application: Can be used as a foliar spray for quick results or a soil amendment for long-term correction.
- ?Increases Nitrogen Efficiency: Helps the plant process other fertilizers (like Urea) more effectively, reducing waste.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Iron is the metabolic spark plug of the plant. Without it, the plant's energy systems shut down.
[Image of iron deficiency chlorosis symptoms in leaves]- Chlorophyll Synthesis: Iron is required to create green pigment. Multiplex Iron restarts this factory, turning yellow leaves green and allowing the plant to eat sunlight again.
- Electron Transport: It acts as a carrier in the plant's energy chain, moving energy from the leaves to the fruit or grain. [Image of photosynthesis process in plants]
- Enzyme Activation: It activates key enzymes that convert Nitrate fertilizers into proteins, boosting growth.
Result: A darker green canopy, active growth, and significantly higher yields.
Target Crops & Pests
| Crop | Deficiency Symptoms Treated |
|---|---|
| Sugarcane | Pale yellow stripes on young leaves, poor cane weight, low sugar content. |
| Paddy (Rice) | Yellowing nurseries, "white heads," and poor grain filling. |
| Horticulture (Grape, Apple, Citrus) | Bleached young leaves, stunted growth, fruit drop, and poor fruit color. |
Dosage & Application Guide
The Golden Rule: Foliar spray is the most effective method for quick correction. Soil application is used for long-term maintenance.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Method | Dose (per Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (per Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Foliar Spray (Leaves) | 500g - 600g | 200 L | 2.5g - 3.0g | 0-3 Days |
| Soil Application (Basal) | 10 kg | N/A | Mix with Sand/Compost | 0 Days |
| Drip / Fertigation | 2 - 3 kg | Depends on Tank | Consult Agronomist | 0 Days |
*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval. Generally safe for harvest shortly after application, but wash produce thoroughly.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: Apply during the morning or evening. Avoid spraying in hot midday sun to prevent leaf burn.
Schedule: First spray at vegetative stage (15-20 days). Second spray before flowering. - Mixing: Dissolve the powder in clean water. Use immediately; do not let the solution sit for hours as it may oxidize (rust).
- Coverage: Spray liberally on both the top and bottom of the leaves, as the underside absorbs nutrients faster.
- Safety: Do not mix with highly alkaline products (like Bordeaux mixture) or Phosphates, as this will cause the iron to become solid and useless.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How do I know if my plants need this?
Look at the new, young leaves. If they are turning yellow or white but the veins remain dark green, you need Multiplex Iron.
2. Can I use this in high pH (Alkaline) soil?
Yes, but soil application is less effective in high pH soils as the iron gets locked up. Foliar spray is highly recommended in these cases as it bypasses the soil entirely.
3. Is it compatible with other fertilizers?
It is compatible with Urea and Potash. Avoid mixing with Phosphorus-heavy fertilizers or alkaline pesticides. Always do a "Jar Test" first.
4. Can I overdose this product?
Yes. Iron sulphate is a salt. Exceeding 3g/Litre can cause leaf burn (scorching). Stick to the recommended dose.
5. Why does the powder turn brown if left open?
Ferrous sulphate reacts with moisture and oxygen. Keep the packet tightly sealed in a dry place to prevent it from turning into rust.
