Description
Recommendations for use:
-for preventive and emergency use in the event of zinc deficiency: corn, potatoes, cereals, vegetables and ornamental plants, orchards and berries
-to stimulate the development of the root system and increase the absorption of nutrients and water from the soil
-to improve the frost resistance of plants
-to increase resistance to abiotic and biotic stress conditions – in particular drought, frost or high UV radiation
-in order to increase the main yield and improve its technical and storage parameters

Zinc (Zn) | 5,00 | 6,05 |
The role of zinc in crops:
- regulates the hormonal balance of plants, has a positive effect on the photosynthesis process, determines protein synthesis and carbohydrate binding.
- it contributes to the development of the correct shape of plants and better color of leaves and fruits
- increases plant resistance to fungal diseases and prolongs the “green leaf” effect
- it improves the size and quality of the main crop and increases plant biomass
- stimulates the uptake and increases the efficiency of nitrogen fertilization
- it has a positive effect on increasing the frost resistance of winter crops
Zinc deficiency:
- shortening and curling of leaves, in extreme conditions the leaves may die. Leaf chlorosis in the form of white-yellow spots on the ends of leaves or in the form of white-yellow stripes on leaves (cereals and corn) between the veins.
- shortening and dying of side shoots in extreme conditions may lead to their death
- dwarfing of plants, distortion of plants, shortening of internodes, waving of leaves (potato, tomato)
- reducing the formation of flower buds and the number of grains in cobs and ears
Dosage and timing of application:
Crop | Dose (l/ha) | Number and Timing of Applications |
---|---|---|
Winter cereals | 1-3 | 1 autumn treatment from the 4th leaf stage (no later than 3-4 weeks before the winter break in vegetation), 2 spring treatments from the beginning of the vegetation until the end of the shooting phase. The interval between treatments is at least 12 – 14 days |
Winter rapeseed oil | 1-3 | 1 autumn treatment from the 4-6 leaf stage (no later than 3-4 weeks before the winter break in vegetation), 1 treatment in spring after the start of vegetation until the beginning of the flower bud development stage |
Spring cereals | 1-2 | 2 treatments from phase 3-4 to the end of the shooting phase, interval between treatments at least 12-14 days |
Corn | 1-3 | 1-2 treatments from the 4th leaf stage. The interval between treatments is at least 12 – 14 days |
Sugar beets | 1-3 | 2-3 treatments from the 4-6 leaf stage to 100% inter-row closure. The interval between treatments is at least 12-14 days |
Potatoes | 1-3 | 2 treatments from the shoot formation phase to reaching 40% of the final weight of tubers, the interval between treatments is at least 12-14 days |
Vegetables | 1-2 | 1 – 3 treatments from the 4th leaf stage, during the period of intensive growth, interval between treatments at least 12 -14 days |
Orchards and berries | 1-3 (5*) | 3 -4 treatments. 1 – 2 preventive treatments after flowering or after the occurrence of zinc deficiency symptoms and 1 – 2 treatments a few weeks before harvest in order to improve storage stability and obtain proper color, Interval between treatments at least 12 – 14 days(*) in case of significant shortage |
