Feeding winter cereals at the stem elongation stage.
For cereal crops the period from the start of stem elongation is among the most critical in forming the future grain yield. At this time root system growth is activated, the photosynthetic surface is actively formed, carbon assimilation strengthens and the development of the generative part of the yield begins.
Long rainy weather and a lack of warmth in most regions had a certain effect on the growth and development of plants, as well as of harmful organisms: weeds, disease pathogens and pests. Integrated crop protection cannot be avoided. Intensive plant growth and development requires balanced mineral nutrition. To create favorable nutrition conditions for plant development, special fertilizers should be added to the tank mix of crop protection products.
In particular, full nitrogen uptake requires balanced nutrition with other elements, including manganese, magnesium, sulfur and copper, and to restrain the development of root and leaf diseases, phosphorus in phosphite form in addition to fungicides.
Based on many years of trial results in all soil and climate zones, and on the actual condition of the crops, we offer:
for foliar feeding – ECOLINE Phosphite (K) 1.0–1.5 l/ha + ECOLINE Magnesium (Chelates) 1.0 l/ha to activate root system growth, restrain the development of diseases, which is relevant this spring, and supply key macro- and micronutrients.
