Abstract

This comprehensive review explores the advances and applications of aminochelates in plant nutrition, shedding light on their significance and impact in modern agricultural practices. Aminochelates, which consist of metal ions chelated with amino acids, have gained substantial attention for their role in enhancing nutrient uptake and addressing deficiencies in various plant species. The review begins by delving into the fundamental principles of aminochelation and the unique properties that make these compounds highly effective in facilitating nutrient absorption by plants. The interaction between aminochelates and different nutrient elements is examined, providing insights into the mechanisms that contribute to improved nutrient availability in the soil and subsequent uptake by plant roots. Furthermore, the paper discusses the role of aminochelates in mitigating nutrient stress and enhancing plant growth and development. The review incorporates a comprehensive analysis of research findings, including studies on diverse crops, soil types, and environmental conditions. Special attention is given to the safety of aminochelates for plants and the environment, ensuring a balanced evaluation of their overall impact on sustainable agriculture. Additionally, the review explores recent technological advancements and innovations related to the synthesis and application of aminochelates, highlighting emerging trends and potential future developments in the field of plant nutrition.The synthesis methods, application strategies, and their efficacy in different agricultural  settings are critically assessed. In conclusion, this review provides a thorough understanding of aminochelates, emphasizing their significance as a promising tool for improving plant  nutrition. The insights presented in this paper contribute to the existing knowledge base, guiding future research directions and applications in the realm of sustainable and efficient agricultural practices.
