Nutrients

Molybdenum

• Molybdenum is an element that can boost yields by hundreds of kilograms when applied as a few grams of nutrient. 
• It affects nitrogen metabolism through the assimilation of nitrates, protein synthesis, and the improved assimilation of airborne N in legumes – nitrogenase. 
• This element is most commonly deficient in high-pH soil. 
• Plants respond very well to foliar feeding with molybdenum.

The crops most sensitive to Mo deficiency are:

• vegetables, 
• legumes,
• sugar beet,
• oilseeds,
• clover.

Less sensitive are:

• fruit trees,
• corn,
• grass.
