Home / 5-ALA: The application in agriculture

5-Aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) is a new type of phytostimulant product, which can form a variety of functional products in conjunction with various nutritional elements necessary for plants. Non-pesticide, non-hormonal, non-registered ingredients, safe, green, can be added to various fertilizer products, has the functions of replacing hormones, improving fertilizer efficiency, and enhancing fertilizer functionality. It has become the first choice for improving fertilizer efficiency after hormones are banned.

5-Aminolevulinic Acid (5-ALA) Benefits:

1. Supplementary light and energy supply

5-ALA can significantly increase the activity of antioxidant enzymes in crops, increase the concentration of cytoplasm and significantly reduce the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) and lipoxygenase (LOX) activity, significantly increase the content of soluble solids in crops, and enhance the resistance of crops to high and low temperature, strength and weakness Ability to withstand various adversity stresses such as light, drought, waterlogging, salinity, barrenness, and heavy cropping.
5-ALA can promote chlorophyll synthesis and photosynthetic electron transfer, increase photosynthetic rate and accumulation of photosynthetic products.

2. Root care and mulc

Improve the activity of key enzymes for PAS synthesis in seeds, promote seed germination and break dormancy, resist the adverse effects caused by SDS, stimulate plants to produce endogenous hormones, regulate growth, mature and repair cells, and prevent and control premature aging of crops. Promote the opening of leaf stomata, promote root growth and root mulch.

3. Change color and sweeten

5-ALA can effectively promote the expression of related genes, and then promote the early synthesis and accumulation of anthocyanins in the pericarp, and promote fruit coloring: accelerate the conversion of substances accumulated in photosynthesis into soluble sugar, increase sugar accumulation, improve fruit quality and extend shelf life.

4. 5-ALA can improve fertilizer efficiency

5-ALA can promote the opening of leaf stomata, promote root growth, increase root respiration, increase transpiration rate and root activity, promote nutrient absorption and increase root absorption and transportation of soil nutrients. Improve nutrient use efficiency

5. Green and environmental protection

5-ALA is a pure natural non-protein amino acid, which is ubiquitous in all organisms, can be naturally degraded, has no environmental residues, is non-toxic to humans and animals, and can be applied to green food and organic food production systems.

Applicable crops:

field crops
vegetable crops
fruit crops

Instructions of 5-ALA:

Compound addition:

  1. Added to macronutrients, secondary elements, and amino acid fertilization
  2. Amino acid and microelement foliar fertilizer added
  3. Add to compound fertilizer, special urea and microbial fertilizer

Field use

  1. Flush application: flush 5-ALA with irrigation water and fertilizer.
  2. Spraying: Dilute with water, mix well and then spray with other elements.

Precautions of 5-ALA:

  1. Store 5-ALA in a cool, dark, ventilated and dry place, and use it as soon as possible after opening.
  2. It can be applied alone or in combination. Do a small amount of mixing test before mixing and spraying. If there is a reaction, please use it with caution.
  3. 5-ALA is acidic, so avoid using it with alkaline fertilizers.
  4. Pay attention to protection when using to avoid accidental ingestion.
