PRODUCT: Mg12 (foliar application)
YEAR: 2023
COUNTRY: Kazakhstan
APPLICATION:
- Control. NPK background.
- Background NPK + Mg12. Foliar application: 1st - in the rosette phase and then 2 times with an interval of 14 days, Mg12 consumption - 0.5 kg/ha, working solution consumption - 300 l/ha.
- Background NPK + Mg12. Foliar application: 1st - in the rosette phase and then 2 times with an interval of 14 days, Mg12 consumption - 1.5 kg/ha, working solution consumption - 300 l/ha.
- Background NPK + Mg12. Foliar application: 1st - in the rosette phase and then 2 times with an interval of 14 days, Mg12 consumption - 3.0 kg/ha, working solution consumption - 300 l/ha.
Trial plots area – 20 m², observed plots area – 10 m². Trial repetitiveness — four times.
Foliar application with the Mg12 product was carried out on June 22, July 17 and July 31. Harvest – October 23.
RESULT:
- Yield increase compared to control with NPK background: 2.25-17.96%.
- The yield increase resulted from improvements in yield structure: cabbage head mass increased by 8.3-19.1%, cabbage head diameter increased by 1.4-4.0%, and cabbage head height increased by 5.1-13.7%.
- The content of dry matter and vitamin C remained essentially unchanged, while the total sugar content increased by 2.9-5.9%.
- The maximum result was achieved with a triple application at a 3.0 kg/ha dose.
- All yield increases exceeded the experimental error and were statistically significant.
