MIKRO-6

Microelement foliar fertiliser for dissolving in water, created to limit (supplement) deficiencies in microelements in a crop plant.

Description

Fertilisation of crop plants with microelements gains in importance in the view of drastic reduction in fertilisation with manure (a valuable source of many microelements) in the last decade. In Poland, soils are deficient in boron (60–75%), copper (40%), molybdenum (20%), and in zinc and manganese (10%). Crop plants must have their demand for all essential nutrients: macroelements and microelements, covered. In plant production, microelements do not cause such a great yield increase as primary (NPK) and secondary (Ca, Mg, S) macroelements, but they participate in activation and control of many life processes influencing yield size and quality.

 

Microelements from MIKRO-6 participate in:

  • CO2 fixing processes.
  • Control of plant nitrogen management.
  • Control of functioning of hormonal systems, e.g. auxins.
  • Plant resistance to diseases and ability to winter.

 

An effective crop plant fertilisation strategy, focusing on a high yield, should always consider the preventive use of micronutrients. When deficiencies of specific elements cannot be evaluated, preventive feeding must be conducted, because emergency feeding will always result in yield losses.

Mn 6%, Mo 0.2%, Zn 5%, B 0.5%, Cu 1.5%, Fe 2%.

Available packs: 1kg, 10kg.

 

PREPARING WORKING SOLUTION

  • Fill the tank with water to ca. 2/3 of its capacity.
  • With the stirrer on, add MIKRO 6 fertiliser (it is recommended to dissolve the fertiliser first in a small quantity of liquid).
  • Add another pesticide.
  • Add water to the required volume.
  • Perform the treatment.

 

CULTIVATION RECOMMENDATIONS

Apply recommended doses by dissolving the fertiliser in ca. 300 L of water. When different quantity of water is used, do not exceed the solution concentration of 1%, i.e. 1 kg per 100 litres of water. It is recommended to test water used for spraying for its pH value. In the case of pH exceeding 7, it is recommended to add the conditioner Polsil®Optima pH, adjusting the acidity and hardness of water. When added to a working solution, Biamino Plant increases assimilation of microelements from MIKRO-6. Do not perform the treatment during hot weather or when plants are covered with dew. The microelement fertiliser MIKRO-6 can be used together with the majority of generally available plant protection products. Test spraying of a small area is recommended, to evaluate the mixture effects.
