Description
Key effects:
High Manganese Concentration
Provides high foliar application efficiency and rapid correction of manganese deficiencies during periods of intensive vegetative growth.
Greener, Healthier Leaves
Supports proper chlorophyll production and efficient photosynthesis, helping reduce chlorosis and maintain vigorous growth and strong plant condition.
Support for Natural Plant Defences
Stimulates lignin and phenolic compound synthesis, helping reduce susceptibility to fungal diseases.
Effective Where Soil Manganese Availability Is Limited
Foliar application bypasses the limited availability of manganese in soils with pH above 6.5, as well as in organic and peat soils.
Macronutrient Support for Better Manganese Use
Nitrogen, potassium, and sulfur support manganese uptake and transport, helping optimise its metabolic utilisation.
Composition:
| Macronutrients | % m/m | % m/v |
|---|---|---|
| Nitrogen (N) | 4,00 | 6,56 |
| Potassium (K₂O) | 2,00 | 3,28 |
| Sulphur (SO₃) | 14,00 | 22,96 |
| Micronutrients | % m/m | % m/v |
| Manganese (Mn) | 17,000 | 27,88 |
| Density: 1,64 kg/l | ||
| pH: 3,5-4,5 | ||
The role of manganese in crops:
- has a positive effect on the nitrogen balance of the plant by, among other things, preventing excessive nitrate accumulation in the plant.
- increases the amount of vitamin C
- influences protein synthesis in the plant
- improves root system morphology by stimulating phosphorus uptake
- increases frost resistance
- improves tolerance to stress conditions – especially drought
- has a toxic effect on certain soil pathogens, thereby reducing disease pressure
- by activating enzymes, improves photosynthesis and increases the amount of chlorophyll in the leaves.
Manganese deficiencies result in:
- Mottled chlorosis on young leaves
- Inhibition of plant growth
- Yellowing of leaves and appearance of brown spots between nerves
- Stunted root growth
- Partial leaf dieback
- Reduced plant uptake of nitrogen and phosphorus
Dosage and timing of application:
| Crop | Rate (l/ha) | Applications |
|---|---|---|
| Field crops | 0,5-1 | 1–2 applications from the 4–6 leaf stage / tillering / the early stage of intensive growth |
| Fruit and berry crops | 0,5-1 | 1–2 applications from the green bud stage to flowering |
| Vegetables | 0,5 | 1 application from the early stage of intensive growth |
| Fertigation | 0,05-0,1% | Depending on the needs of the crop |
