Man-uP
LIQUID MANGANESE SEED TREATMENT
FOR EFFICIENT EARLY PROTECTION
Manganese is the most commonly deficient trace element in UK soils. It plays a key role in
photosynthesis and is vital for many plant enzyme systems. Deficiencies impact on plant health, root
and shoot growth, quality and yield. To protect cereals from early deficiency problems Man-uP
provides a highly plant available source of Manganese to the germinating seed.
Man-uP combines high levels of Manganese with nitrate Nitrogen and is designed to treat cereals
and oilseed rape to ensure availability of these essential nutrients during the critical early stages of
growth.
Treating the seed with Manganese is the most efficient way to protect the crop from early
deficiencies, ensuring a guaranteed supply when there is too little leaf area for effective foliar
application and protecting against possible delays in application due to adverse spraying
conditions.
The proprietary blend of surfactants in Man-uP gives excellent coverage and adherence to the
seed and its formulation as a true solution means it can be evenly applied and dries quickly allowing
the seed to run easily through the drill.
