When to Use

The unique formulation of macro and micronutrients has been specifically designed to boost oilseed rape growth particularly during the key establishment period. Essentially a brassica, the nutrient requirement of oilseed rape is substantial and very different from other arable crops such as cereals. The early application of the vital nutrients combined with the bio-stimulating action of the phosphite component in OilSeed Raiser promotes both growth and activity in the plants own natural defense systems. A well-fed crop with robust and healthy roots and leaves has an increased natural ability to overcome disease, pests and stress.

OilSeed Raiser is recommended for application to oilseed rape during the early stages of growth in the autumn as pest attack or other stress factors put the crop under pressure. Further applications of OilSeed Raiser may be made at any time from early spring to maintain healthy plant growth throughout the growing season and alleviate the symptoms of physiological and nutritional stress.

Key Benefits

• Tailored OSR nutrient package
• Phosphorus in phosphate and phosphite forms
• Promotes healthy root development
• Boosts crop resilience
• Rapid uptake
• Easy to apply

Applications & Uses

How it Works

Oilseed rape as a member of the brassica family has its own unique nutritional requirements quite different to other combinable crops in the rotation and OilSeed Raiser has been developed specifically to address these. For example it is known that oilseed rape requires the following increased factors of nutrient supply when compared to cereals;
Boron:- 5-6 x more
Calcium:- 2-3 x more
Molybdenum:- 2-3 x more
Zinc:- 1.5 – 2 x more

These elements play a vital role in promoting root development and plant health at key growth stages and are particularly required when adverse conditions hamper normal crop development.
OilSeed Raiser offers all these essential elements in combination with phosphite P assisting in their uptake and translocation in the crop.

Application Rates & Timings

OILSEED RAPE:
Early growth Apply @ 1.5 l/ha from 4 to 6 true leaves.
Rapid growth Apply @ 3.0 l/ha during stem extension
Crop quality Apply @ 3.0 l/ha from early stages of pod extension
Crops growing under stressful conditions will benefit from further applications.

OilSeed Raiser is best applied as a foliar spray at water rates of 200-600 l/ha depending on the crop condition and stage of growth.
