Mechanism of Action and Indications
MANVERT FOSIKA has a double action due to its formulation with the phosphite ion:
- Nutrient Supply: It furnishes the plant with potassium and phosphorus.
- Defense Improvement: It improves the plant’s defenses from fungic parasitic attacks, especially from Oomicetes (Mildium). It is also effective to prevent Phytophtora and Ph. parasitica, which cause rottenness, watery fruits, and gumminess.
- Systemic Action: Due to its special formulation, it has good penetration in the plant, giving good ascending and descending systemia. This ensures the product is present in leaves, neck, and roots, as all elements it contains are wholly assimilable.
- Applicability: MANVERT FOSIKA can be applied to any kind of crop.
