Abstract
Copper (Cu) is an essential micronutrient for the growth of plants and animals, with a reported Earth’s crust abundance of 55 mg/kg and impacts on health are related to deficiency as well as excess. The effects of high Cu concentrations in soil in decreasing the uptake of other essential micronutrients by plants are well known.
