Mode of action and benefits
Molybdenum foliar fertilisers are specially developed for application to the leaves. Molybdenum (Mo) is an important nutrient for plants, necessary for various processes in plant metabolism. A deficiency of molybdenum can lead to various growth problems in plants, such as yellowish leaves, reduced growth and reduced yield performance. Application to the leaf can quickly counteract an acute nutrient deficiency and improve plant health.
The application of Molybdenum Foliar Fertiliser can be combined with other foliar fertilisers and compost tea.
Application and dosage
| Crop | Application rate |
|---|---|
| General | Foliar fertiliser for molybdenum supply, application rate 0.15-0.25 l/ha in at least 200 l water/ha. |

| Hops | For molybdenum supply 0.15 l/ha as foliar fertilisation. |
| Cabbage, leafy and onion vegetables | For molybdenum supply, against “whip-stalk” symptoms and clamp-heartiness: 1-2 times 0.25 l/ha as soon as sufficient leaf mass is available. |
| Rape | For molybdenum supply and against “whip stem” symptoms: 1-2 times 0.15-0.25 l/ha from the beginning of length growth. |
| Sugar beet | For molybdenum supply, against “whip-stalk” symptoms: 0.15-0.25 l/ha between 6-leaf stage and row closure. |
