Suspension technology and formulation advantages
Wuxal formulations are engineered as concentrated liquid suspensions rather than simple salt solutions.
Key technological advantages:
- High nutrient density: Carries up to three times higher elemental nutrient concentration than standard liquid foliar fertilizers.
- Built-in buffering system: Regulates the pH of the spray water, ensuring optimal nutrient availability and preventing leaf scorching.
- Integrated additives: Formulated with advanced wetting agents, stickers, and re-wetting humectants that absorb atmospheric moisture and extend foliar absorption time.
- EDTA micronutrient chelation: Metallic micronutrients (iron, zinc, manganese, copper) are fully chelated to ensure rapid plant uptake and prevent precipitation in hard water.
- Crop safety: Neutral pH buffer minimizes leaf burn even when applied at high nutrient concentrations.
Popular Wuxal formulations and crop applications
Different Wuxal grades are tailored for specific plant growth stages and nutrient demands:
Primary formulations:
- Wuxal Macromix (NPK 16:16:12 + trace elements): Balanced foliar nutrition applied during active vegetative development and early flowering.
- Wuxal Calcium: Supplies concentrated calcium, nitrogen, and magnesium to prevent physiological disorders like blossom end rot in tomato and bitter pit in apples.
- Wuxal Boron: High-grade boron suspension to improve pollen viability, flowering, and fruit set in vegetables, mustard, and orchards.
- Wuxal Microplant: Complete multi-micronutrient cocktail for correcting acute micronutrient chlorosis in fruit orchards and cash crops.
Foliar application guidelines and tank mixing
Dilute Wuxal products according to official label recommendations (typically 1.5 to 2.5 ml per litre of water or 300 to 500 ml per acre). Shake the container thoroughly before dispensing to ensure uniform suspension. Spray during calm morning or late afternoon hours when crop leaves are turgid. Wuxal is compatible with most standard neutral fungicides and insecticides, but conduct a jar test before mixing.

Common questions
What is Wuxal and who manufactures it?
Wuxal is a premium foliar suspension fertilizer brand developed by Aglukon and distributed in India by SWAL (UPL group).
Why are suspension fertilizers superior to standard liquid fertilizers?
They provide higher nutrient concentrations with built-in buffering agents, stickers, and humectants that enhance foliar absorption and prevent scorch.
What crop disorders are treated with Wuxal Calcium?
Wuxal Calcium treats calcium deficiencies such as blossom end rot in tomatoes, tip burn in leafy vegetables, and bitter pit in apples.
