Spring foliar fertilization

This is the period of vegetation when each plant grows the most and most intensively, consumes the most energy and nutrients, which it now integrates into its body, and thus forms and determines the future harvest. Therefore, it is during this period that we must provide plants with sufficient amounts of available nutrients for their metabolic processes.

Recently, intensive dynamics have been observed in the foliar fertilizer market. The question has been raised several times as to what would be the optimal spring top dressing for crops during intensive germination.

We recommend several preparations.

YaraVita products

Based on the experience of the farms we visited and the opinions of experts, we have gathered several key arguments as to why YaraVita products have proven to be so effective:

High content of active ingredients – which contributes to an extremely favorable price-performance ratio.
Quick application – easily and quickly applied to plants.
Exceptional quality: Each crop has a special foliar fertilizer, mixes well and uniformly, does not require adhesion promoters, has a long-lasting effect (3-6 weeks), does not contain harmful substances, and has excellent resistance to rain.
Reliability/market recognition: constant and continuous control of active ingredients, 60 years of development, works in all conditions.
Global and local testing and experimentation foster professionalism.
Cost efficiency: higher yields, better quality, multiple returns on investment in all crops.

YaraVita Zeatrel – for corn foliar treatment

YaraVita Zeatrel is one of the products in Yara’s “foliar phosphates” line. In addition to its high phosphorus content, it also contains potassium, zinc and magnesium in the following ratio: 43 P + 7.7 K + 14 Zn + 6.7 Mg, which is an ideal combination of nutrients for foliar feeding of corn.

This concentrated liquid product provides plants with quickly and easily accessible energy, which contributes to their rapid growth. The high zinc content provides intensive synthesis of the growth hormone – auxin, which directly affects the yield of corn. They can also help plants overcome adverse climatic conditions.

The recommended rate of use is 3-5 l/ha.

Application time: 1-2 treatments at the 4-8 leaf stage, with or without pesticides.

YaraVita Bortrac – for foliar boron feeding of seedlings

This is a liquid boron concentrate (150 g/l) that is manufactured under strict quality control to ensure consistent quality and yield, or to maximize it. This ensures that the plant is not damaged during use, which could reduce its market value. Due to the purity of the raw materials used to make this preparation, it is safe to use and guarantees that the crop will maintain its quality even after harvesting.

The high boron content promotes the formation of roots and transport tissue, which helps to better absorb nutrients and transport them more easily through the plant. YaraVita Bortrac has a low viscosity, which allows for easy application, mixing and use.

In both sunflower and soybean, boron is applied in the initial stages of growth, before the flowering stage, so that the plant has enough time to absorb it. Boron is an element that affects better fertilization.

The recommended rate of use is 1-2 l/ha.

YaraVita Universal Bio-complex liquid fertilizer with microelements

YaraVita Universal Bio is a high-quality solution containing a balanced combination of essential nutrients – macro and microelements (N, P, K, B, Cu, Mn, Mo, Zn). This composition makes it suitable for improving the general condition of the plant, making it stronger, more resilient, more resistant to adverse external conditions, and also promotes regeneration after stressful situations. It is used both on field crops, and on vegetables and fruit trees.

The application dose is usually: 2-5 l/ha.

The liquid formula of all YaraVita products allows for easy measuring, filling and mixing in dosing containers, as well as easy application to the plant.

All YaraVita foliar fertilizers are easily mixed with plant protection products, so they can be used simultaneously. This app saves time and money. Due to the variability of conditions, it is important to always check the mixing capabilities via smartphone – the Yara TankmixIT app from the Google Play Store, which is available to everyone.

Cosmocel – Bioplex – complex biostimulant

In addition to the above preparations, it is recommended to use complex biostimulants, such as Bioplex, manufactured by Cosmosel from Mexico, which is ideal for enhancing plant functions during periods of intense metabolic activity. Bioplex is an organic product of a highly controlled fermentation process that aims to improve the balance between photosynthesis and respiratory activity of the plant in a safe and consistent manner. Bioplex enhances metabolic activity by supplying biomolecules that the plant has stopped synthesizing due to unfavorable environmental conditions. It can be used at any physiological stage of development.
