Composition:
As Ammonium Molybdate-54%
Molybdenum (Mo) functions
largely in the enzyme systems of N fixation
and nitrate reduction. Plants which can
neither fix N nor incorporate nitrate
into their metabolic system because of
inadequate Mo become N deficient. Molybdenum
is required in minute amounts.
Molybdenum is involved in enzyme systems
relating to nitrogen fixation by bacteria
growing symbiotically with legumes. Nitrogen
metabolism, protein synthesis and sulfur
metabolism are also affected by molybdenum.
Molybdenum has a significant effect on
pollen formation, so fruit and grain formation
are affected in molybdenum-deficient plants.
Because molybdenum requirements are so
low, most plant species do not exhibit
molybdenum-deficiency symptoms. These
deficiency symptoms in legumes are mainly
exhibited as nitrogen-deficiency symptoms
because of the primary role of molybdenum
in nitrogen fixation. Unlike the other
micronutrients, molybdenum-deficiency
symptoms are not confined mainly to the
youngest leaves because molybdenum is
mobile in plants. The characteristic molybdenum-deficiency
symptom in some vegetable crops is irregular
leaf blade formation known as whiptail,
but interveinal mottling and marginal
chlorosis of older leaves also have been
observed.
Molybdenum deficiencies are found mainly
on acid, sandy soils in humid regions.
Molybdenum uptake by plants increases
with increased soil pH, which is opposite
that of the other micronutrients. Molybdenum
deficiencies in legumes may be corrected
by liming acid soils rather than by molybdenum
applications. However, seed treatment
with molybdenum sources may be more economical
than liming in some areas.
Use Of Trasco Diamond on crop
Plants:- Trasco Diamond can be
used on crop plants that suffer from acute
Molybdenum deficiency.
This can be used as a foliar spray mainly
in cruciferous crops like cabbage and
cauliflower.
Dosage:- Foliar spray
to be given @ 50 gms-100gms Trasco Diamond
/200 lits water.
Repeat the spray if required after 25
days if symptoms persists.
