Valagro Axilo Ca Chelated Calcium Valagro Axilo Ca is a professional water-soluble chelated calcium fertilizer designed to help correct and prevent calcium deficiencies in turf, ornamentals, vegetables, fruit crops, nut crops, field crops, forage grasses, and other labeled crops. Formulated with 10.0% chelated calcium derived from calcium EDTA, Axilo Ca provides plant-available calcium in a dry soluble form for foliar and soil/root applications. Calcium is essential for cell wall strength, root and leaf development, nutrient movement, and overall plant structure. Axilo Ca is compatible with a wide range of fertilizers and pesticides, but the label recommends performing a compatibility jar test before mixing, especially with phosphorus fertilizers. Features & Benefits ✓ Supplies 10.0% chelated calcium to help correct and prevent calcium deficiency ✓ EDTA-chelated formulation improves calcium availability for foliar and root-zone uptake ✓ Supports cell wall structure, root formation, leaf development, plant vigor, and normal growth ✓ Useful where calcium deficiency causes weak new growth, poor root development, curled leaves, necrotic margins, or blossom-end-rot-type symptoms ✓ Labeled for vegetables, fruit crops, berries, nuts, field crops, forage grasses, golf course greens, turf, and ornamentals ✓ Can be used in foliar sprays, soil applications, starter fertilizer programs, side-dress fertilizer applications, or slurry impregnation onto granular fertilizer ✓ Compatible with many pesticides and fertilizers when jar-tested before mixing Labeled Use Sites Valagro Axilo Ca is labeled for use on vegetable crops, tree and vine fruit crops, shrub, berry, and bush crops, nut crops, field row crops, forage and grass crops, golf course greens, general turf, and ornamentals. Labeled crop examples include onions, carrots, peppers, eggplant, zucchini, melons, cucumbers, tomatoes, cole crops, leafy vegetables, apples, cherries, citrus, pears, stone fruit, kiwi, grapes, blueberries, cranberries, raspberries, strawberries, almonds, pecans, pistachios, walnuts, barley, beans, corn, cotton, peanuts, potatoes, rice, soybeans, sorghum, sugar cane, sugar beets, wheat, alfalfa, timothy, fescue, and switchgrass. Target Deficiency Axilo Ca is designed for correction and prevention of calcium deficiency. Calcium deficiency most often appears in young, actively growing tissue because calcium is not highly mobile within plants. Symptoms may include stunted root growth, curled or distorted new leaves, weak growing points, necrotic leaf margins or tips, and fruit-quality problems such as blossom end rot in susceptible crops. Application Notes For soil applications, Axilo Ca may be used in-furrow or 2 x 2 with starter fertilizer, side-dressed with fertilizer, surface-applied by sprayer and cultivated into the soil immediately after spraying, or mixed into a slurry and impregnated onto granular fertilizer. Use lower rates for maintenance applications, middle rates for medium deficiencies, and higher rates for more severe deficiencies. For foliar applications, Axilo Ca may be mixed with other pesticides, and foliar fertilizers when compatibility is confirmed. Do not apply when crops are under water stress; application after irrigation or rainfall is best. Do not apply to plants bearing mature fruit until it has been determined that the product will not damage or mark the fruit.
