Physical Description:




Copper Sulphate is a pale blue powder, crystalline or granular material.





Uses:






Copper Sulphate is an animal remedy (dietary copper supplement) for use in



dairy cows to prevent and treat copper deficiency in livestock. It is also



used as a fertiliser additive to increase pasture copper levels. Copper



sulphate can also be dissolved in water and sprayed onto pasture or crops



as an alternative method of getting copper into grazing animals.



Benefits:







Animal Health - copper sulphate is a convenient method of providing



supplementary dietary copper to animals.



Fertiliser - copper levels in some soils are naturally low. Copper



deficiencies in cereals causes decreased cereal grain size. Applications of



copper sulphate to wheat and barley can increase the grain plumpness and



grain size. Some cropping soils are naturally low in copper. Ensure your



cereal crop is not deficient in copper by herbage testing or visually



inspecting your crop. If deficiency symptoms are present, apply copper



sulphate as a foliar solution.



Application:







Animal Health - Copper Sulphate can be administered as an oral drench,



through the drinking water or added to supplementary feed. For dose rates



please consult your veterinarian. It can also be dissolved in water and



sprayed onto pasture as a foliar application, at a rate of 2kg/ha. Foliar



application should be done in the autumn, winter or early spring, as these



are the periods of peak requirement. The foliar application can also be



applied at the same rate to pasture that is due to be cut, or has just be



cut, for hay, silage or baleage.





Fertiliser for pasture - copper sulphate can be added to fertiliser and



applied directly to pasture to elevate herbage copper concentrations. For



sheep and cattle, rates are an initial application of 5-10kg/ha in autumn,



followed by 6.25 kg/ha applied in the autumn every 4-5 years. For deer



rates are 12kg/ha annually. Copper takes at least a month to get into



herbage through the fertiliser so to ensure adequate levels have been



reached in the herbage, test the herbage 4-6 weeks after application.

Fertiliser for crops - copper sulphate can be applied directly to soil pre



-sowing at 5-10kg/ha, which may result in a long-term residual effect.



Under dryland cereal cropping, broadcast application of copper sulphate may



be ineffective due to low soil moisture. Foliar applications of copper



sulphate need to be made with caution, as it is extremely toxic. Thus it is



advisable to dilute to 0.75-1.0 kg/ha in 200 litres of water and repeat to



avoid toxicity. [Another option is to apply a chelated-copper (Supa-Cu) at



1-4 litres/ha in 200 litres of water.] These applications are proving to be



most effective when applied at the mid to late tillering stage.

Meat and milk withholding periods for animals: NIL





Compatibility:







Animal Health - Copper Sulphate can be mixed with most other oral



nutritional animal health products, except magnesium chloride. It is



soluble in water so can be administered through the drinking water, however



it can be corrosive to machinery so check with your equipment supplier



first.

Fertiliser - Copper Sulphate is hygroscopic, therefore may not mix well



with granular NPK fertilisers while mixing with superphosphate may produce



insoluble compounds with low copper availability.

Do not administer to animals at the same time as using high doses of zinc



for facial eczema prevention (North Island only), as copper supplementation



may interfere with the protective effects of zinc.





Storage & Handling:






Copper Sulphate is mildly irritant, so care should be taken to avoid



contact with eyes. Store in a cool, dry covered facility, and ensure that



the bag is closed properly after use.
