Description
Recommendations for use:
– for preventive and intervention supplementation when a deficit becomes apparent.
– in agricultural, fruit and vegetable crops with high magnesium requirements: sugar beet, cereals, winter rape and crops grown using intensive technology aimed at achieving high yields.
– to increase resistance to stress (low temperatures, drought), effects caused by negative impacts of pathogens and insects
– as an aid to root system development and to improve nitrogen and phosphorus uptake from the soil.
– to encourage the tillering of cereals
– in order to improve quality and quantity of the yield
– to increase the winter hardiness of plants
| MACROELEMENTS | % weight | % volume |
|---|---|---|
| Nitrogen (N) | 4.00 | 5.60 |
| Magnesium (MgO) | 15.00 | 21.00 |
| Sulfur (SO3) | 10.00 | 14.00 |
The role of magnesium in plants:
- stimulates the development of the root system and favourably influences the uptake of nutrients from the soil
- improves the quality of vegetable protein
- reduces the nitrate content of the plant
- has a positive effect on the transport and accumulation of phosphorus in the seed
- as a component of chlorophyll, favourably influences the photosynthetic process
Magnesium deficiencies cause:
- Reduced uptake and utilization of soil nitrogen
- Reduction in protein, sugars including starch in potatoes
- Poor plant growth, delayed development stages
- Decrease in plant resistance to disease
- Yield reduction
Dosage and timing of application:
| Crop | Dose (l/ha) | Number of Treatments and Application Timing |
|---|---|---|
| Sugar Beet | 3 | 2 treatments: from the 4-6 leaf stage to 100% canopy closure (BBCH 16-39) |
| Fruit Trees and Shrubs | 3 | 3-5 treatments per growing season |
| Other Crop Species | 2 | 3-5 treatments per growing season |
| Oilseed Rape | 3 | 2 treatments: in spring from the beginning of the elongation of the main shoot right after the start of vegetation up to the beginning of the development of the flower buds (BBCH 30-51) |
| Brassicas | 2 – 3 | 2 treatments: first at the intensive vegetative growth stage (BBCH 13-69), second at the head setting stage (BBCH 71-81) |
| Root and Tuber Vegetables | 2 | 2 treatments: first during the intensive vegetative growth stage, second during the storage root growth stage |
| Cereals | 2 | 2-3 treatments: after the start of vegetation up to the beginning of earing (BBCH 31-50) |
| Potatoes | 3 | 2 treatments: first before the canopy closure, second after 10-14 days (BBCH 31-39) |
The fertiliser must not be mixed with calcium fertilisers and magnesium sulphate.
Fertigation – not to exceed a concentration of 0.3%
