Abstract

Granular agricultural compositions formed of a micronutrient, a granular carrier, and a nitrogen source including plant readily available nitrogen are disclosed. The granular agricultural compositions can be a granular herbicidal composition when the micronutrient is a metal chelate. The granular agricultural compositions can reduce metal chelate phytotoxicity and exhibit beneficial greening. Methods of making and using the granular agricultural compositions are further disclosed.
