Controlling manganese deficiency in sugarbeet with foliar sprays

Abstract: S U M M A R YField experiments in 1987 and 1988 on peaty-loam, Mn-deficient soils of the Adventurers series in Cambridgeshire, UK, tested the response of sugarbeet to three forms of manganese fertilizer supplied as foliar sprays. The influence of a wetter and an adjuvant on manganese absorption and growth was also investigated.Cutonic and chelated forms of Mn, when applied at standard rates, were inefficient at increasing Mn concentrations in plants and alleviating deficiency symptoms during early summer. Mn c… Show more

“…There was little difference between the effectiveness of the wetter and the adjuvant. This is in contrast to the results obtained by Last and Bean (1991) who showed increased uptake of Mn (when applied as sulphate or as an inorganic formulation) when an adjuvant was used in the spray. The reason for the different effects of the adjuvant with Cu and Mn is not known.…”

“…The foliar sprays of both forms of Cu also contained either Agral, a non-ionic wetting agent or LZ700 containing wetting agents and penetrants. Previous work had shown this adjuvant to increase uptake of foliar applied Mn by sugar beet (Last and Bean 1991). The Agral was used at a rate of 0-1 ml litre-' and the LZ700 at a rate of 5 ml litre-'.…”

“…Additionally, for the same type of cuticle, higher foliar sorption was found for MnSO 4 than Mn-EDTA, but further translocation in the tissues was much higher for the chelated form . MnSO 4 was also more effective than Mn-EDTA to increase leaf Mn concentration in orange trees and sugar beet …”

“…32 MnSO 4 was also more effective than Mn-EDTA to increase leaf Mn concentration in orange trees 33 and sugar beet. 34 The reduced Mn content in the petioles in plants treated with Mn-EDTA could be associated with a negative net charge of the complex, since the cuticle itself is negatively charged. 1,32 By analogy with zinc complexes, 35 one can expect the diffusion coefficient of Mn-EDTA to be about half of that of MnSO 4 .…”
