Winter oilseed rape: autumn nutrition program

05 April 2023
Now is the time to think about the first feeding of winter rapeseed. Our task is to give you the most useful recipe and go through all its components in detail. And yours is to get valuable information and apply it to your needs and realities.
🔹 FIRST COMPONENT:🔹
we need foliar fertilization with complex NPK+ME fertilizers to compensate for the deficiency of nutrients when their assimilation is limited by natural factors and a still weak root system. We place special emphasis on Phosphorus and Potassium, because we have to activate the development of the root system and ensure additional accumulation of carbohydrates for better overwintering of crops. To get the maximum effect from the treatment, you should choose a high-quality product with a high concentration of macro- and microelements, a prolonged effect due to adjuvants, and perfect compatibility with PPE. With this in mind, the Novalon Foliar line of fertilizers is your choice. Higher efficiency at lower rates – 1-1.5 kg/ha.
🔹 SECOND COMPONENT:🔹
biostimulant based on seaweed extract – as a natural source of bioactive compounds. Phytohormones, polyamines, polysaccharides, amino acids, and a number of other useful components to stimulate the plant, prepare it for overwintering and increase immunity. The combination of such a bio-cocktail with Phosphorus, Zinc and Boron, which is in the Speedfol Marine stimulator, is highly effective. Emphasis on auxins will contribute to the construction of a strong and branched root system, and a significant concentration of polyamines and polysaccharides will ensure better wintering. A high concentration of bioactive agents determines efficiency at low rates – 0.3 l/ha.
🔹THE THIRD COMPONENT:🔹
Boron, which is an indispensable component of autumn foliar application. It will contribute to the strengthening of the root system, the accumulation of sugars in the root neck, increase the elasticity of tissues, which will reduce the risk of cracking of the root neck, reduce the appearance of pitting and generally improve the frost and winter resistance of winter rapeseed. And here Speedfol B will help you. It has a low pH level, which contributes to the acidification of the working solution, has a high concentration of Boron – 170 g/kg, and due to adjuvants, it will have a prolonged effect already at a rate of 0.8-1 kg/ha.
