Abstract: A foliar fertiliser composition providing for an enhanced crop characteristic in a crop. The composition is made of soluble compounds of the following trace elements in the following ranges of relative proportions of the respective element by weight, 0.5 to 4.0 copper, 2.0 to 10.0 zinc, 2.5 to 12 manganese, 5 to 14.0 iron, 0.5 to 6.5 boron, 0 to 0.3 molybdenum.

Abstract: A granular fertilizer is prepared by coating particles of a base fertilizer, selected from orthophosphates of calcium, ammonium and potassium and mixtures thereof, with:(a) a first layer comprising 1 to 5% (by weight of the total composition) of water or an aqueous solution of a salt selected from the group of sulphates and phosphates of ammonium or potassium and mixtures thereof; and(b) a second layer comprising (i) elemental sulphur and/or (ii) a supplemental micronutrient, and, if the first layer consists of water only, (iii) 0.1 to 10% (by weight of the total composition) of a salt selected from the group consisting of water-soluble sulphates and phosphates of ammonium or potassium, sulphates of metallic trace elements, and mixtures thereof.
