Description
Recommendations for use:
– for preventive and intervention use in the event of iron deficiency
– in crops that are particularly sensitive to iron deficiencies: berry crops, fruit crops, vegetables.
– to improve plant resistance to stress conditions: drought, the effects of fungal diseases and pest pressure.
– to improve yield level and quality and storability parameters
– to increase plant survival after wintering
– to improve plant water management and increase resistance to drought conditions
– to stimulate the correct development of the root system and to increase the absorption of nutrients from the soil

The role of iron in crops:
- influences the processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration by participating in electron transport.
- increases the synthesis of chlorophyll, carotene and xanthophyll (normal plant weight and high nutritional quality).
- improves efficiency of nitrogen metabolism and protein production
- is involved in the metabolism of fatty acids
Iron deficiencies result in:
- Reduces flowering of fruit trees and bushes
- In orchard crops leads to chlorosis of the apical leaves and subsequent death of branches and shoots
- In case of iron deficiency in plants, non-protein nitrogen compounds accumulate
- The storability of fruit and vegetables deteriorates
Dosage and timing of application
| Crop | Dose (l/ha) | Number of Treatments and Application Timing |
|---|---|---|
| Fruit Trees | 1.5 | 3-4 treatments: after petal fall (BBCH 71), repeat several times every 4 weeks |
| Strawberries | 0.25%* |
6-7 treatments:
|
| Vegetables | 1.5-2.0 | 3-4 treatments: after 3-4 leaves have developed (BBCH 13-14), every 10-12 days |
| Vine | 1.5 | 2-3 treatments: before flowering (BBCH 53), until full grapes form (BBCH 79), at intervals of 12-14 days |
| Potatoes | 1.5-2.0 | 3-4 treatments: apply from the tuber setting stage until the beginning of the drying of the haulm (BBCH 40-97), every 10-14 days |
