Nitromag

Simple mineral fertiliser

Nitromag is a high-purity fertiliser obtained by the salification of nitric acid with magnesium oxide. It is used in all soils with a magnesium deficiency and/or an excess of potassium that hinders its uptake. This liquid formulation is free of Cl and SO4 ions which, as is well known, can cause serious salinity problems in the long term. In calcareous soils the application of the usual magnesium correctives has proved ineffective; NITROMAG solves every magnesium deficiency problem (the nitrate ion in fact stimulates the uptake of magnesium). Magnesium takes part in many physiological processes of the plant, the most important of which is undoubtedly the formation of chlorophyll, of which magnesium is an integral part. It facilitates the uptake of phosphorus (and vice versa) and the synthesis of sugars, fats and proteins. It is a component of many substances that give colour to petals and leaves. The main causes of magnesium deficiency can be listed as follows: decreased organic fertilisation; intensification of production cycles; leaching in sandy soils. Its uptake is hindered in soils rich in clay colloids, because it is strongly retained, and in soils rich in calcium and/or potassium, which compete with magnesium for the same uptake sites, etc. NITROMAG is a fertiliser high in magnesium, in the chemical formulation best suited to complete, rapid uptake of the element. It has a recognised activity in inhibiting bunch stem necrosis in grapevines.

Dosage and application: Meets all the nutritional needs of plants; however, for particular needs this quantity can also be doubled. Raw materials: Magnesium nitrate solution.
