Agro-Moly OP
4-0-0 + 4% Mo
Encourage nodule formation in legumes
Agro-Moly is a liquid nutrient designed to prevent and treat molybdenum deficiencies. Molybdenum is a component of enzymes that convert nitrates into ammonia and then into amino acids. It is required by nitrogen-fixing bacteria in legumes. Molybdenum also intervenes in phosphorus and iron assimilation. Agro-Moly is activated by Oligo Prime®, an innovative biostimulant technology that allows for quick absorption and translocation of nutrients and reinforces the plant’s natural defenses against abiotic stresses (drought, low temperature, salinity, etc.). It must be used based on soil or tissue analyses or as soon as deficiency symptoms appear. For more information on Agro-Moly, consult your agronomic adviser.
Rich in molybdenum
Molybdenum plays an important role in nitrogen metabolism inside the plant. Molybdenum is an indispensable component of enzymes that convert nitrates into nitrites (toxic form) and then into ammonium to be used in the synthesis of amino acids and proteins. It is part of nitrogenase, the enzyme responsible for the binding of atmospheric nitrogen by symbiotic bacteria in legumes. Molybdenum is thus directly involved in the synthesis process of proteins. It is also involved in phosphorus and iron assimilation. Furthermore, molybdenum plays a role in pollen viability and grain production. Agro‑Moly OP is enriched with nitrogen in ureic form, giving it tissue dilatation capability, thus encouraging the penetration of other nutrients in the leaf.
Agronomic benefits
- Improves the plant’s use of nitrogen
- Helps in the formation of nodules in legumes
- Improves the use of phosphorus and iron
- Secures yields
In conclusion, Agro‑Moly OP complements your nitrogen fertilization. Agro‑Moly OP is highly recommended for crops prone to molybdenum deficiencies such as crucifers (broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage) and legumes (beans, peas, clover). Molybdenum deficiency builds up toxic nitrites in the plant, causing a spoon-shaped leaf symptom which is responsible for a decrease in yields. Molybdenum deficiencies are very frequent in light and acidic soils. The application of Agro‑Moly OP will help to prevent and correct these deficiencies.
