Sugar beet

Application technology:

1. Seed pre-treatment*. Application rate of the preparation – 100 g of Lignohumate A, AM, or 0.5 l of Lignohumate B, BM per 1 ton of seeds. Seed pre-treatment with consumption rate of 10 l per 1 ton of seeds. Combination with protectants or bio-preparations is recommended. Machines used PS-10, PS-10A, "Mobitox".

2. Foliar dressing during the phase when 1 to 3 regular leaves are grown. Application rate of the preparation – 30-150** g of Lignohumate A, AM, or 0.15 - 0.75** l of Lignohumate B, BM per 1 hectare. Consumption rate of the solution – 200 - 300 l per one hectare. Standard or low-capacity sprayers can be used.

3. Foliar dressing at the early root formation phase. Application rate of the preparation – 30-150** g of Lignohumate A, AM, or 0.15 - 0.75** l of Lignohumate B, BM per 1 hectare. Consumption rate of the solution – 200 - 300 l per one hectare. Standard or low-capacity sprayers can be used.

4. Foliar dressing of plants before a closure between rows. Application rate of the preparation – 30-150** g of Lignohumate A, AM, or 0.15 - 0.75** l of Lignohumate B, BM per 1 hectare. Consumption rate of the solution – 200 - 300 l per one hectare. Standard or low-capacity sprayers can be used.

It is recommended to apply Lignohumate in a mixture with protectors and soluble fertilizers.

Thus, thanks to the above described properties we have:

- increased drought tolerance;

- increased crop yield;

- crop quality improvement (increased sugar content in root crops).

By virtue of its physiological requirements it is most preferable to apply to Red Beet a sodium form with addition of a set of microelements.

*- only if seeds are not incrusted or pelletized.

**- the maximum efficient dose as recommended by The All-Russia Research Agrochemical Institute in the Name of D. N. Pryanishnikov.
