Resumen

Lyophilized fertilizer composition comprising iron siderophore chelates and a stabilizing agent and a lyophilized composition comprising siderophores and a stabilizing agent, wherein the stabilizing agent is starch. The invention further relates to processes of obtaining a lyophilized fertilizer composition and a lyophilized composition comprising a step of synthesis of at least one siderophore compound by means of biochemical transformation performed by at least one microorganism, and to the use of the compositions for treating cultivated plants, for example in conditions of low iron availability, wherein the compositions are capable of correcting chlorosis in plants and do not present environmental risks. The lyophilized fertilizer composition and the lyophilized composition have high storage stability.
