The period of active spring growth is one of the most critical stages in the development of agricultural crops. During this time, the main vegetative organs of plants are formed, photosynthesis intensifies, and the uptake of nutrients from the soil increases. The further development of crops and their ability to produce stable yields largely depend on how balanced plant nutrition is during this period.
Modern cultivation technologies involve the use of micronutrient fertilizers, which help plants absorb nutrients more efficiently and support their development during key growth stages.
Why plants need additional nutrition in spring
In spring, plants enter a phase of intensive growth, which is accompanied by an increased demand for macro- and micronutrients. During this period, elements involved in cell formation, root system development, and regulation of physiological processes are especially important.
Due to unstable weather conditions or soil characteristics, some nutrients may become less available to plants. Therefore, farmers often use foliar feeding with micronutrient fertilizers.
Use of boron micronutrient fertilizers
Boron is an important micronutrient involved in cell wall formation, development of reproductive organs, and the transport of nutrients. Specialized micronutrient fertilizers are used to provide plants with available forms of boron.
Among such products are:
- Quantum® Bor Active — a highly effective fertilizer based on easily available biologically active forms of boron, additionally containing amino acids and a complex of polyols to improve boron mobility.
- Quantum® Bor Active + Molybdenum — a liquid boron fertilizer enriched with molybdenum and cobalt, suitable for use in crop nutrition systems.
- Quantum® Bor Classic — a classic boron fertilizer based on boron ethanolamine with an optimally balanced boron concentration.
- Quantum® Bor + Calcium Chelate EDTA — a комплексний fertilizer containing boron and calcium in chelated form, suitable for feeding various crops.
Such micronutrient fertilizers can be used in foliar feeding systems to support plant development during active vegetation.
Zinc micronutrients in nutrition technologies
Zinc is another important micronutrient involved in enzyme synthesis, growth, and plant development. In modern cultivation technologies, chelated forms of zinc are used due to their high availability to plants.
These products include:
- Quantum® Zinc Chelate 117 EDTA — a concentrated chelated zinc fertilizer with a high zinc content in EDTA form.
- Quantum® Zinc Chelate 87 EDTA — a micronutrient fertilizer containing zinc in chelated form for use in plant nutrition systems.
- Quantum® Zinc Chelate 100 — a complex zinc fertilizer that also contains nitrogen and phosphorus and can be used for crops sensitive to zinc deficiency.
A comprehensive approach to spring nutrition
In modern agriculture, plant nutrition is considered a comprehensive system that takes into account crop needs, soil characteristics, and weather conditions. The combination of macro- and micronutrients helps create favorable conditions for plant growth and supports their development during key growth stages.
On the website agrovio.com.ua, you can explore various types of modern micronutrient fertilizers used in plant nutrition technologies. In addition to fertilizers, the catalog also includes solutions for comprehensive crop care, including plant protection products.
The use of modern agricultural technologies and balanced nutrition systems helps farmers maintain stable crop development and work efficiently during the spring growing season.
