🌼 Let’s talk about the specific and intense culture of WINTER RAPESEED, because its vegetation recovery is just around the corner.
📝 Let’s determine the development phases and how we can improve our yield, and then, based on your discretion considering cultivation technology, planned treatments, and economic efficiency, you can choose the best option for yourself.
1️⃣ ROSETTE (spring): Balanced NPK nutrition during this period will help restore and form a strong leaf apparatus. Boron deficiency – leads to doubling (at this time, rapeseed absorbs up to 25% of the total Boron requirement). Therefore, complex micronutrients and boron products should be applied at this time.
✅ Solution: foliar application of a complex micronutrient fertilizer with emphasis on Phosphorus NOVALON FOLIAR 10-45-15+0.5MgO+ME (1-1.5 kg/ha) combined with boron micronutrient SPEEDFOL B (rate 1 kg/ha). If the plants are weak, it won’t hurt to support the crops with the biostimulant POWERFOL UNDARIA (rate 0.5-1 L/ha).
2️⃣ STEM ELONGATION: Activation of all morphophysiological processes occurs. Up to 80% of total Nitrogen is absorbed (from vegetation recovery to flowering). The final yield potential is formed. Complex fertilizers with micronutrients + biostimulators are necessary during this period to activate the formation of generative organs. Don’t forget – Boron nutrition is necessary to support tissue elasticity, root system activation, and preparation for bud laying.
✅ Solution: foliar application of a complex micronutrient fertilizer NOVALON FOLIAR 20-20-20+0.5MgO+ME (1-1.5 kg/ha) combined with SPEEDFOL B (rate 1 kg/ha). We recommend complementing this combination with the biostimulant POWERFOL FitoFarm (rate 0.5-1 L/ha) for additional plant stimulation and stress resistance enhancement.
3️⃣ BUDDING – END OF FLOWERING: Determines how many flowers will be pollinated and how much seed will be formed (pod fill). Therefore, Boron application (for normal flower pollination) and anti-stressants to minimize stress effects are necessary during the budding phase.
✅ Solution: SPEEDFOL B (rate 1 kg/ha) + high-free L-amino acid anti-stressant SPEEDFOL AMINO CALMAG (rate 0.5-1 L/ha).
4️⃣ SEED FILLING: Formation of 1000-seed mass – this indicator can be additionally improved through nitrogen nutrition.
✅ Solution: main nutrition can be supplemented with foliar feeding of NOVALON FOLIAR 20-20-20+0.5MgO+ME (1.5-2 kg/ha) + SPEEDFOL AMINO CALMAG (rate 0.5-1 L/ha) to improve seed quality characteristics and prolong photosynthetic activity.
So, remember: BEFORE THE ACTIVE FLOWERING PHASE, WE WORK ON QUANTITY, AND AFTERWARD – ON THE QUALITY OF OUR YIELD.
