In autumn rapeseed lays the foundation of future productivity: it develops the root system, forms the rosette and accumulates sugars for overwintering. Therefore the autumn nutrition system must contain everything necessary to prepare the plants for the next stage of development. And this is exactly where phosphite performs key functions.
But there is an important nuance: phosphite ≠ phosphate. These are different forms of phosphorus with different properties. Phosphates are first of all a source of phosphorus for plant nutrition. In plant systems phosphite is considered primarily as a tool for stimulating physiological processes and the plant's natural defense reactions.
What does it give rapeseed in autumn?
- stimulation of root system development
- support of physiological resilience under stress
- better preparation of the plant for the wintering period and the subsequent resumption of vegetation
- creating the preconditions for the plant's further productive development
Therefore phosphite is an extremely important component of the autumn nutrition system for rapeseed, working to increase the plant's physiological resilience and development.
