Foliar spray for Wheat
Crops
AGROBLITZ is a foliar fertilizer
which consists of a complex mix of plant derived amino acids, enzymes, vitamins
and carbohydrates. It also contains a unique extract which regulates the plants
hormonal balance, leading to higher grain production.
Wheat is one of the most
important crops in rotation across large areas of North America and Asia. Improvement in plant genetics, pest management,
agronomic practices and fertilizer management have all contributed to
progressively increasing wheat yields.
Keeping in mind all the macro
and micro nutrients requirements of the wheat crop, AGROBLITZ
is a unique blend of all the major and minor elements. These ingredients
regulate hormonal balance in wheat plants. The plant extract part of this formulation
contains an array of amino acids, vitamins, carbohydrates and enzymes making this
formulation unique.
AGROBLITZ usage
has no harmful effects on plants, animals and environment in general. Wheat crops
require more nutrients at critical stages of growth such as pinnacle initiation
and grain formation and filling. AGROBLITZ
supplements the wheat plant with all these essential nutrients at critical
stages of the plant’s vegetative and reproductive life cycles, hence ensuring
optimal growth. It provides all the necessary macro and micro nutrients which
aid in the development of the crop. The plant derived amino acids, enzymes and
other essential plant growth regulators help condition the plant physiology.
Some of the features of AGROBLITZ
help improve the general health of plants by establishing and promoting an extensive
healthy root system with more branches and root hairs. In addition it helps:
·
Promote better plant health leading to healthier
Xylem and Phloem transport tissues and increased assimilation of macro and
micro nutrients by the Xylem tissues.
·
Increase the permeability of the root membrane
by cell elongation and division leading to more nutrient uptake and utilization
within the plant.
·
Stimulation of the activity of Invertase and Sucrose
syntheses in apical tissues during ear development stages.
·
Enhance the photosynthesis process by increasing
the concentration of chlorophyll in the leaves.
·
Regulate the transfer of photosynthates (carbohydrates)
from the point of production (fully developed leaves) to the point of storage (flower,
grains, and pinnacles) or usage for energy (young developing leaves).
·
Eliminates the detrimental effects of drought by
regulating the stomata opening and closing.
·
Supply an adequate amount of potassium which
results in superior quality of the whole plant due to improved efficiency of
photosynthesis, increased resistance to some diseases, and greater water use
efficiency.
·
Maintain the balance between carbohydrates and
proteins.
·
Result in a stronger wheat plant which reduces
lodging and increases grain yield.
·
Supply the nitrogen needs of the plant - nitrogen
is an important component of grain protein. To obtain high protein wheat you
must provide the plant with an adequate supply of nitrogen.
WHEN TO USE:
Foliar application will
ensure the maximum utilization of nutrients required during the maximum energy
drain periods of reproduction and grain formation. To get maximum benefits, a minimum
of 2 applications must be done as follows:
1st
application - apply at pinnacle initiation stage, 40 days after
germination or after the second irrigation.
2nd
application - apply 8 -10 days after the first application.
These two foliar
applications will ensure continuous uptake of all nutrients in the vegetative and
reproductive stages of the plant development and will regulate all biochemical
processes in the plant by providing maximum energy.
HOW TO USE:
·
Pre-treatment
of seeds: mix
2ml of AGROBLITZ to 1 liter of water
– drench the seeds in the solution, remove seeds and let dry in the shade.
·
Foliar
Applications: we recommend two foliar applications to gain the maximum
benefit from AGROBLITZ. Apply the
first application at pinnacle initiation stage, 40 days after germination or
after the second irrigation. Apply the final application 8-10 days after the
first application. Mix 420ml of AGROBLITZ
to 120 liters of clean water (3.5ml/L). This volume is sufficient to cover
one acre of wheat field. It can be sprayed with hand, boom or power sprayer.
·
If you are planning to mix AGROBLITZ with pesticide mixtures, we recommend doing a
compatibility test prior to mixing. In order to conduct a compatibility test,
take one liter of water in a beaker and add the recommended dose of AGROBLITZ. Next prepare your pesticide
mix in the same manner and mix both solutions together. Wait at least one hour,
and, if there is any precipitate at the bottom, or any change in the color of
the solution, then this indicates that there is a reaction between the two
products and you should not mix AGROBLITZ
and your pesticide together.
·
We recommend that AGROBLITZ be applied early morning or in the evening when the
temperature is low. Care should be taken to avoid spraying when there is dew on
the plant as this may wash away the fertilizer. If the temperature gets high
just after spraying, the fertilizer may evaporate. If it were to rain shortly
after spraying, the fertilizer may be washed away. In both cases you need to
re-apply the fertilizer as a foliar spray. Allow a 3-4 hour drying period to
improve the absorption of AGROBLITZ’s nutrients
throughout the plant foliage.
