LUBOFOSKA ® FOR CEREALS

EU FERTILISING PRODUCT ● GRANULATED ● COMPLEX MINERAL MACRONUTRIENT FERTILISER
NPK (Ca, S) 4-10-18 (16-26) WITH COPPER (Cu) 0.10 AND MANGANESE (Mn) 0.20

  • a specially developed composition for spring and winter cereals
  • developed to meet the high copper demand of wheat and the high manganese demand of barley
  • when used with winter cereals, additional autumn fertilisation is not required
  • releases sulphur throughout the growing season
  • due to the content of readily soluble forms in the fertiliser, it can be used on sites depleted of minerals
  • recommended for localised strip-till fertilisation
  • very good spreading properties

Usage

Apply before sowing; after application, mix the fertiliser with the soil to a depth of 10–20 cm.

When using very large doses, the fertiliser should be spread 10–14 days before sowing cereals. When fertilising malting barley, be careful not to over-fertilise the plants with the nitrogen used in the spring.
