NITROSOL MAGSULPHATE

Enhance Plant Growth and Soil Health

Contains: 3.4% Magnesium and 4.4% Sulfur

Nitrosol MagSulphate from Rainbow & Brown is recommended when the soil test and/or herbage test indicate deficiencies in magnesium or sulphur. Magnesium, an essential plant nutrient often lacking in New Zealand crops, and sulphur, crucial for productive pastures, crops, and animals are effectively addressed by this product.

What is Nitrosol MagSulphate?

Nitrosol MagSulphate is a liquid form of magnesium and sulphur used to provide these essential elements to correct plant deficiencies or for animal health. Nitrosol MagSulphate includes 7.5% organic carbohydrates to feed and stimulate biological activity in the soil.  

Nitrosol MagSulphate from Rainbow & Brown is a soluble solution, so it easily combines with Nitrosol Oceanic/Original application. The soluble magnesium is rapidly absorbed by plants to address any deficiency.

Nitrosol has established itself as a reputable brand known for enhancing plant growth, soil health, and profitability both locally in New Zealand and globally.

Why use Nitrosol MagSulphate?

Nitrosol MagSulphate provides both magnesium and sulphur, in a form that is highly available for both soil and foliar applications.

Magnesium has a wide range of roles in a plant. As magnesium is a building block of chlorophyll, the nutrient’s main role is to aid in the process of photosynthesis and promote healthy, green leaves. 

Magnesium also helps plants absorb nitrogen, phosphorous, and other nutrients. These nutrients contribute to plant growth, flowering, and disease resistance.

Foliar feeding is additionally advantageous where high levels of potassium in the soil restricts absorption of magnesium in the roots.

Nitrosol Magnesium Sulphate from Rainbow & Brown also assists the ripening process of certain fruits and vegetables.

Nitrosol MagSulphate on Pasture 

Magnesium is one of the four key cations for pasture growth. The correct base saturation of magnesium and calcium is required to maintain good soil structure. Magnesium is vital for pasture photosynthesis and a carrier for phosphorus, it supports a steady flow of phosphorus to the plant and increases nitrogen fixation in legumes. The combination of carbohydrates with magnesium sulphate strengthens the colonies of microbiological organisms in the soil. These microbes help to break down soil minerals into a form that can be easily utilised by plants.

A plant with a magnesium deficiency will often have yellowing between the veins and around the leaf margin. Severe deficiencies will also affect younger plants and result in the formation of lesions. Magnesium is crucial for the formation of chlorophyll that makes the plant green and converts sunlight into energy.

Magnesium also helps plants absorb nitrogen, phosphorus and other nutrients which contribute to plant growth, flowering, and disease resistance. High levels of calcium and potassium can limit magnesium uptake.

Nitrosol MagSulphate is recommended for the following Crops:

Almonds, Avocados, Apples, Barley, Beans, Broccoli, Cabbage, Cauliflower, Carrots, Celery, Citrus, Corn, Grapes, Lettuce, Lucerne, Melons, Nectarines, Rice, Pears, Peaches, Pecans, Peppers, Plums, Prunes, Potatoes, Peanuts, Sorghum, Soybeans, Sugar beets, Sweet corn, Strawberries, Tomatoes, Turnips, Walnuts, Watermelons, Wheat and most other crops. 

How to use Nitrosol MagSulphate

Nitrosol MagSulphate is designed for application through irrigation systems (fertigation), directed soil spray, soil injection and foliar applications. 

Nitrosol MagSulphate can also be mixed with other fertilisers as part of your regular programme.

MIXING: Shake, stir, or swirl contents before using. Always add this product to the spray tank before adding pesticides. Follow this mixing sequence:

- Water

- Nitrosol MagSulphate

- Pesticide

Note: Ideal application rates will vary according to climate, productivity, soil type and crop type.

Spray early in the morning or late afternoon. Mid-day sprays may not be effective because of excessive moisture evaporation. Nitrosol MagSulphate solution is compatible with most insecticides, fungicides, foliar nutrients, and herbicides. It can be applied in existing spray programs and can be applied with most herbicides.

Foliar Application

4 – 6 litres of Nitrosol MagSulphate per 200 litres of water when magnesium levels are low, or deficiency symptoms occur. 

Applications should be separated by a minimum of 7 – 14 days.

AVOID foliar applications of this product when plants are under moisture stress.

AVOID foliar applications to deciduous tree crops during bloom.

NOTE: Foliar feeding is additionally advantageous where high levels of potassium in the soil restricts absorption of magnesium in the roots.

Soil Application

5 – 15 Litres per Ha with 100 Litres per Ha of water as soil application. If applied direct to soil prior to cultivation, fertigation and irrigation systems, higher rates than above can be used.

Soil Fertility Maintenance Application: 5 litres per Ha 

Moderate deficiency: 10 litres per Ha

Heavy micronutrient deficiency: 15 litres per Ha

Fertigation Application

Typical fertigation application rates (including fairways): 

Apply at 4 – 6 L/Ha with 200 to 400 L/Ha water toward the end of irrigation, shift to flush the irrigation system out.

Field Crops: 

Apply recommended rates when plants are young. This is the time when most severe deficiencies occur.
