Mikrovit Iron 75 FE

MIKROVIT IRON is a liquid fertiliser containing 75 g Fe per 1 litre, intended for foliar application. It supplies plants with iron, which is effectively absorbed and utilised by plants.

MIKROVIT IRON contains complexing agents that accelerate iron uptake by plants and facilitate the combined use of the fertiliser with other agrochemicals.

Iron (Fe)	75	6.0

MIKROVIT IRON used preventively in crops with high iron requirements (e.g. beans, beetroot, cabbages, broccoli, cauliflower, spinach, tomato, sweet pepper, strawberry, acid-loving plants grown on neutral or alkaline soils) – is an effective source of iron. It is also recommended under low light conditions and in the presence of soil conditions limiting iron availability to plants (high pH, high manganese content, lack of oxygen in the root zone).
MIKROVIT IRON applied at the timings and doses recommended in the fertilisation programmes for individual species effectively prevents iron deficiency in plants.

Iron (Fe) supplied in MIKROVIT IRON fertiliser positively affects the quantity and quality of the yield, including:

• increased chlorophyll formation intensity
• increased biomass and proper growth and development of plants
• improvement of overall plant condition
• increased stress resistance and faster plant regeneration
• better quality parameters of the yield
• reduction of the risk of excessive accumulation of nitrates and harmful nitrites in the yield.

MIKROVIT IRON should be applied foliarly as an aqueous solution. The fertiliser can be used together with other products after conducting a test confirming compatibility.
