AgroLiquid is excited to introduce microLink Iron HPH, designed to help with the issue of Iron Deficiency Chlorosis (IDC) in high pH or alkaline soils. For growers facing the frustration of yellowing leaves and stunted growth due to iron unavailability, microLink Iron HPH is the answer.
IDC causes yield reductions in a variety of crops, though most of the research is focused on soybeans, where there is significant loss. For instance, a U.S. 2019 soybean IDC report resulted in yield losses totaling $260 million annually.
High pH soils often make iron insoluble, preventing crops from absorbing this nutrient. This leads to IDC, which impacts yield and crop quality. In response to this challenge, AgroLiquid developed microLink Iron HPH, a specialized iron nutrient product. With it, iron is delivered in a readily available form, allowing crops to efficiently absorb and use it – even in alkaline conditions.
What sets microLink Iron HPH apart from the rest is Nutriq technology. With AgroLiquid’s Nutriq technology, microLink Iron HPH is highly compatible with other crop nutrients and crop protection products, which allows for flexibility in application.
microLink Iron HPH benefits include:
• Improves iron uptake in high pH soils
High pH soils create an environment where iron readily converts into forms that plants cannot absorb. Our product is designed to deliver iron in a form that remains available, even in high pH soil. Improved iron uptake helps combat IDC, improves chlorophyll production, and helps with overall crop health and yield potential.
• Highly compatible formulation
AgroLiquid’s Nutriq technology allows microLink Iron HPH to work with a wide range of other agricultural inputs. As a result, growers can simplify their tank mixing process, plus have more flexible application options
• Can be applied with other nutrients or crop protection*
Because of the high compatibility, growers can co-applicate with macronutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium) and other micronutrients. Also, growers can apply with other inputs to save time, money, and trips across the field. Note – Due to the your own unique circumstances, always follow label instructions and perform a jar test before mixing or applying any agricultural input product.
Overall, microLink Iron HPH is designed to be a user-friendly solution for producers facing the challenges of iron deficiency in high pH soils.

Discover why:
• IDC is a complex issue influenced by various factors, including soil pH, carbonate content, crop type, and management practices.
• Successful IDC management requires combining strategies including variety selection, soil amendments, and the use of specialized iron products.
• Growers can reduce the impact of IDC and produce healthy crops even in high pH soils by understanding the causes and using appropriate strategies.
