Sato® Turbo K-Mo contains molybdenum, one of the nitrogen-fixing trace minerals required by growing plant organs. In nitrogen starvation, it is customary to feed plants including molybdenum, to increase nitrogen fixation, reduce nitrate levels and restore them to nitrites. Molybdenum, through the production of nucleic acids, is able to fix atmospheric nitrogen, so all legumes that use atmospheric nitrogen for nutrition are sensitive to molybdenum scarcity.
The mobility of molybdenum is determined by the pH of soils: the more acidic the soil, the less mobile molybdenum is. Hence the importance of the arrival of this element with foliar irrigation. Sato® Turbo K-Mo contains more fulvic acids than humic acids, precisely in order to reduce the risk of excessive molybdenum complexation and ensure that it enters the plant organs.
IMPORTANT: It is a direct antagonist of copper (Cu). With an excess of copper, a deficiency of molybdenum is immediately felt and vice versa. Do not apply at the same time.
