Description

Manganese: Manganese Sulfate 31% (Mn), 18% Sulfur (S).
Chemical Formula: MnSO4⋅4H2O

Manganese (Mn) is an important micronutrient for plant growth and development and sustains metabolic roles within different plant cell compartments. Despite the importance of Manganese Sulfate for photosynthesis and other processes, the physiological relevance of Manganese uptake and compartmentation in plants has been underrated.

OMRI listed for Organic Use.

Background
Manganese is essential for many plant functions. Some of them are:

  • The assimilation of carbon dioxide in photosynthesis.
  • It aids in the synthesis of chlorophyll and in nitrate assimilation.
  • Manganese activates fat-forming enzymes.
  • It functions in the formation of riboflavin, ascorbic acid, and carotene.
  • It functions in electron transport during photosynthesis.
  • It is involved in the Hill Reaction where water is split during photosynthesis.

 Directions For Use

Soil Applications: Broadcast 20-60 lbs . per acre pre-plant or at planting. For banded or side-dress applications, use 10-30 lbs. per acre. For improved results, apply in combination with at least 50 lb. ammonium sulfate per acre.
Foliar Applications: Apply to actively growing plants just before full leaf expansion for best results. Thorough coverage and wetting are needed for optimum foliar spray results. Adjust application gallonage for equipment and/or crop coverage. DO NOT apply to foliage when plants are suffering from moisture or heat stress. DO NOT apply to deciduous tree crops during bloom.
