What are the common manganese fertilizers? Which crops need manganese fertilizer? How should manganese fertilizer be applied? The following is a brief introduction from Gengzhongbang Planting Network for netizens' reference.1. Manganese fertilizer varieties
The manganese fertilizers commonly used in production are manganese sulfate, manganese chloride, etc.
2. Crops needing manganese fertilizer
Crops sensitive to manganese include legumes, wheat, potato, onion, spinach, apple, strawberry, etc., followed by barley, sugar beet, clover, celery, radish, tomato, etc. Crops not sensitive to manganese include corn, rye, forage grass, etc.
Generally, the active manganese content is used as the main indicator for diagnosing the manganese-supplying capacity of soil. In soil, an active manganese content of less than 50mg/kg is an extremely low level, 50mg/kg~100mg/kg is low, 100mg/kg~200mg/kg is medium, 200mg/kg~300mg/kg is rich, and greater than 300mg/kg is very rich. Applying manganese fertilizer on manganese-deficient soil generally gives good yield-increasing effects for crops.
3. Manganese fertilizer application methods
In planting, the most commonly used manganese fertilizer is manganese sulfate, generally used as topdressing outside the root, seed soaking, seed dressing and soil seed fertilizer; sparingly soluble manganese fertilizers are generally used as base fertilizer.
For manganese fertilizer topdressing outside the root (foliar), the spray concentration is generally 0.05%~0.1%, for fruit trees 0.3%~0.4%, for legumes 0.03%, and for rice 0.1%.
Seed dressing with manganese fertilizer: for gramineous crops, use 4 grams of manganese sulfate per kilogram of seed, for legume crops 8g~12g, and for sugar beet 16g;
The effect of manganese sulfate used as soil seed fertilizer is roughly equivalent to seed dressing, with a general dosage of 2kg/mu~4kg/mu.
