Due to recent weather conditions, seeking ways to significantly improve root growth is vital. OMEX liquid fertiliser product Kickstart<\/a> is designed to do just that. Kickstart<\/a> is a simple foliar appilcation that improves crop establishment and root growth. The rooting stimulator is based on phosphite, a key nutrient shown to promote early root growth in young plants, and formulated with nitrogen and potassium.<\/p>\n Kickstart<\/a>\u2019s effectiveness has been demonstrated in fully replicated independent trials, Kickstart<\/a> was found to be the best performing foliar root stimulator of all products tested. OMEX has also conducted on farm trials.<\/p>\n In field trials, recorded crop development, was noticeably faster in the Kickstart<\/a> treated areas.\u00a0 Furthermore, this effect continued throughout the season with the treated crop showing more growth and darker leaves.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The chart highlights that the treated crop developed faster than the untreated, and that this effect increased rather than diminished with time after the application.<\/p>\n Trials conducted at Nottingham University showed an average increase in root mass of\u00a038%<\/strong>\u00a0when applied at 3TL compared to the untreated plants.\u00a0 It is vital that there is a significant root mass to allow the plants to maximise yield potential. A larger root mass increases the plants ability to uptake nutrition and water.<\/p>\n Randomised replicated plot trials at the end of the growing season showed a half t\/ha yield response, proving the value of boosting early establishment in cereals.<\/p>\n Use Kickstart<\/a> where an increase in rooting is required, such as on late drilled crops, when seedbed and weather conditions are not ideal for growth, or as part of a crop management programme to significantly improve rooting and establishment.<\/p>\n Foliar uptake will be enhanced by the addition of NA13<\/a>\u00b9 unless in tank mix with a pesticide.<\/p>\n Apply 0.5-1litre\/ha, in a minimum of 200 l\/ha water.<\/p>\n The spray tank should be filled with half the required water. If applicable, add the required amount of NA13 to the water before the Kickstart.<\/p>\n After shaking the container, measure the required amount of Kickstart<\/a> and add to the tank whilst maintaining constant agitation. Add remaining water to correct dilution and spray.<\/p>\nTrials Results<\/strong><\/span><\/h5>\n
