Formulation

 

An ACIDplex formulation of Manganese with Copper for foliar application to cereals and other crops requiring a foliar Manganese supplement with Copper. Offering quick and convenient mixing and extended agrochemical compatibility.

 

250     g/kg     Manganese

149     g/kg     Sulphur (370 g/kg SO3)

50        g/kg     Copper

 

Pack

 

10 kg (3.5 to 10 Ha treated area) UN approved pack

 

Applications

 

Cereals:

1.0 to 3.0 kg/Ha in 100 to 300l/Ha water.

From GS 12 and whenever the crop will benefit from foliar Manganese with Copper up to ear emergence. The rate needs to be adjusted according to foliage development and crop demand.

 

Other Crops:

All deficiency susceptible crops may be treated without risk of damage.

Autumn treatment is especially recommended to improve health and winter hardiness. Manganese and Copper also contribute to disease resistance.

 

Usage

 

Introduce into as large a volume of water as possible. Mixing using standard induction hoppers works well, do NOT attempt to premix. Unless specifically directed otherwise by an agrochemical requirement (e.g. Boxer) always mix powder and DF formulations FIRST.

 

Compatibility

 

Apart from one or two exceptions (check with your agronomist if concerned) this product is very widely compatible for tank-mixing with agrochemicals.

 

Market

 

Any crop treated with foliar manganese will become temporarily copper deficient, and visa versa. Research shows that a manganese copper mix in the ratio 5:1 eliminates the negative effect of a single element application.

 

CopperMan is intended as a replacement for bulk sulphate or cost-sensitive market areas like the farm group and IBC customers.

CopperMan offers a technically correct alternative to straight manganese products in high yielding cereal crops where sub-clinical copper deficiency may be restricting fertility during flowering.

 

It is easy to mix, and has trials result support for its use at the recommended and very cost-effective application rates. It is much more effective, and user-friendly than many alternatives
