Mode of action and benefits
Manganese foliar fertilizers are specially developed for application to leaves. Manganese (Mn) is an essential trace element for plants, required for various processes in plant metabolism. A deficiency of this nutrient can lead to various growth problems in plants, such as reduced growth, leaf discoloration, and leaf damage. Foliar application can quickly counteract an acute nutrient deficiency.
Chelated nutrients improve absorption and plant availability for optimal nutrient uptake.
Manganese foliar fertilizer can be combined with other foliar fertilizers and compost tea.
The chelation
A chelate is a chemical compound in which a metal ion is bound to a larger organic molecule, the chelating agent. This bond forms a complex that is both stable and soluble. The chelating agent usually forms multiple bonds with the metal ion, creating a ring-like structure. This unique structure of the chelate increases the stability and bioavailability of the metal ion and prevents it from precipitating or becoming inaccessible to plants or organisms.
Application and rates
| Crop | Rate |
|---|---|
| General | Prevention and correction of manganese deficiency: 2–5 l/ha (0.5–1%) as a foliar spray, 5–8 l/ha to the soil. |
| Grapevines | 2–3 times 2–3 l/ha as a foliar spray from visible inflorescences |
| Pome fruit | Apply as a foliar spray: several times 2–3 l/ha from hazelnut size. For a greener background color, 3 times 2 l/ha from walnut size. |
| Stone fruit | 2–3 l/ha from fruit set (foliar spray). |
| Strawberries | 1–2 times 2 l/ha as a foliar spray from start of flowering to harvest. |
| Vegetables | 1–2 times 2–3 l/ha as a foliar spray once sufficient leaf mass has developed. |
| Potatoes | 1–2 times 2–3 l/ha as a foliar spray from 1 week after emergence. |
| Sugar beets | 2–3 times 2 l/ha as a foliar spray from the 4-leaf stage. |
| Cereals | For winter hardiness, yield, lodging resistance: in autumn 2–3 l/ha as a foliar spray from the 3-leaf stage. |
| Rapeseed | 1–2 times 2–3 l/ha as a foliar spray from the 8-leaf stage. |

Kristallkalk sun protection – 25 kg
Kristallkalk keeps leaves cooler on hot days. The white film of fine lime crystals reflects part of the sunlight: in sugar beet, Bodenversum measured an average leaf temperature of 29.1 instead of 32.2 °C.
This does not slow down photosynthesis. On a hot summer day the leaf has more light than it can use; what holds it back is the heat. In every trial Bodenversum has shown us, the yield with Kristallkalk was above the untreated control.
Suitable for sugar beet, potatoes, cereals, vegetables, vines and fruit, and as a trunk coating. The needle-shaped crystals stick to the leaf better than ground limestone. Every application also brings calcium onto the leaf: 39 % Ca as calcium carbonate.
Apply with a crop sprayer: 6–10 kg/ha depending on water volume, 2–8 applications per season, no waiting period before harvest.

NK foliar fertiliser PhytoGreen Organic NK 4-6 10 litres
Nitrogen and potassium from sugar beet vinasse — 4 % N, of which 3.6 % is organically bound and of plant origin, plus 6 % water-soluble K2O.
Listed on the FiBL input list for organic farming in Switzerland.
The nitrogen comes as protein and amino acids, not as a salt. Soil microbes mineralise it, so it is released more slowly than from a mineral fertiliser. The C/N ratio of 6.5 is narrow enough to avoid nitrogen lock-up — and the 26 % organic carbon feeds the soil life at the same time.
Via irrigation at max. 5 %, via the leaf at 0.4–1.5 %. Foliar application can leave spray marks — so do not apply to russeting-prone pome fruit varieties or during flowering.
