Description
Recommendations for use:
-for preventive and emergency use in the event of a manganese deficiency. In particular for crops with a high demand for this ingredient: sugar beet, winter rapeseed, potatoes, ground vegetables and ornamental plants, corn, cereals, legumes, orchards and berries.
-in crops grown on alkaline or freshly limed soils (pH above 6.0)
-to optimize the flowering and fruiting process.
-during drought periods to increase resistance to abiotic stress conditions
-to increase frost resistance in winter crops
-in order to increase resistance to the negative impact of pathogens (e.g. drought diseases in cereals)
-in order to improve the quantity and quality of the main crop and its storage parameters
MICROELEMENTS | % weight | % volume |
---|---|---|
Manganese (Mn) | 5.00 | 5.95 |
The fertilizer additionally contains total nitrogen (N) – 2.5% m/m; 2.98% m/v
The role of manganese in crops:
- it has a positive effect on the nitrogen balance of plants and prevents excessive accumulation of nitrates in the plant. It promotes protein production and the synthesis of sugars and fats
- it increases enzymatic activity, improves photosynthesis and increases the amount of chlorophyll in leaves
- it takes part in the regulation of the plant’s hormonal balance and activates enzymes responsible for the breakdown of carbohydrates
- increases the mechanical resistance of plants by activating lignin production
- it has a beneficial effect on the development of the root system and stimulates the accumulation of phosphorus.
- increases the growth of hairy roots
- increases frost resistance
- improves plant resistance to the negative effects of abiotic and biotic stress
Boron deficiencies result in:
- “mottled chlorosis” on young leaves leading to necrosis and partial death of the leaves. Streaky spots between the veins, these symptoms lead to necrosis and leaf fall
- narrowing of the roots in their central part and inhibited their development
- inhibition of plant growth
- iimited uptake of nutrients from the soil: in particular phosphorus and nitrogen
- greater susceptibility of cereals to the negative impact of drought diseases
Dosage and timing of application:
Crop | Dose (l/ha) | Number and dates of treatments |
---|---|---|
Winter cereals | 1-2 | 1st autumn treatment from the 4th leaf stage (no later than 3-4 weeks before the winter break in vegetation), 2nd spring treatment in the tillering stage |
Winter rapeseed oil | 1-2 | 1 autumn treatment from the 4th – 6th leaf stage (no later than 3-4 weeks before the winter break in vegetation), 1 treatment in spring after the start of vegetation |
Spring cereals | 1-2 | 1 treatment from phase 3-4 to the beginning of tillering |
Sugar beets | 1-3 | 1 treatment in the 4-6 leaf phase |
Potatoes | 1-2 | 2-3 treatments from the shoot formation phase to reaching 40% of the final weight of tubers, the interval between treatments is at least 10-14 days |
Vegetables | 0,5-1 | 1 – 2 from the 4th leaf phase, during intensive growth or in periods unfavorable for manganese uptake (drought), interval between treatments at least 12 -14 days |
Orchards and berries | 0,5-1 | 3 -4 treatments. 1 – 2 preventive after flowering or after the occurrence of manganese deficiency symptoms. In apple and pear trees, 1-2 treatments to improve the storage durability of the fruit and their color. The interval between treatments is 12 – 14 days |
