[QUOTE="ollie989898, post: 7407732, member: 54866"] If I had a sizeable area I would probably opt for an IBC of manganese nitrate and sulphate combined. Possibly would add magnesium and zinc as well in some form but would depend highly on the dirt I was on and the kind of cropping I had. Used manganese with loads of stuff in the past, never seen many issues but I would try to avoid using it with grass weed herbicides. Used to think the Yara stuff was excellent but obviously a premium product so to be used sparingly. On clay soils, watching cereals go through that growing pains of a cold late spring is miserable, they soon pick themselves up with a dose of manganese, used to do it twice where needed. I used to see the discolouration and grief in crops on beautiful soils that were very fertile and had been grass for years so the idea you will avoid needing all these trace elements if you soil is 'right' I feel is probably unrealistic for many. Perhaps if you have big levels of OM through years of direct drilling etc? [/QUOTE]
