Dear Mr. Muha:
The following is a summary of the tests we have completed for your company.
Purpose
of Study
Grower must look at reducing costs and developing a more profit-oriented
approach to managing operations. Reductions in agrichemical inputs is
an associated benefit. Therefore, we tested Copper on a leaf after being
sprayed with a copper solution of copper hydroxide and a copper solution
of Electrolytically generated copper ions by the Superior
Aqua System.
Results
A solution of copper hydroxide with a copper concentration of 1,100 mg/L
was sprayed onto a sample of leaves. The residual copper concentration
on the leaves was 0.250 mg/L. A solution of Electrolytically generated
copper ions by the Superior Aqua System with a copper concentration of
0.370 mg/L was sprayed onto a sample of leaves. The residual copper concentration
on the leaves was 0.0932 mg/L.
Conclusion
The Superior Aqua Agricultural System's absorption rate of copper onto
the leaves is higher, due to the highly charged copper ions attraction
to the leaves.
Sincerely,
Debra
