Magnesium

• Magnesium is a cofactor of multiple essential enzymes in the plant organism. Its most essential function, however, is in the chlorophyll centre. As a general rule: low magnesium uptake = low photosynthetic performance = insufficient nitrogen assimilation = poor growth.
• Nutricon has introduced a product that, unlike conventional fertilisers, contains a chelated form of Mg. In this form, it can be utilised much better by the plant.

The plants most sensitive to Mg deficiency are:

• legumes,
• oilseeds,
• fruit trees,
• vegetables.

Moderately sensitive are:

• cereals,
• potatoes,
• sugar beet.
