LURS® colofermin molibdenum is a concentrated micronutrient fertilizer for seed treatment and foliar feeding of field, vegetable and perennial crops.
*Colofermine is a multicomponent complexing agent (analogue of chelating agents), which consists of various organic compounds, optimally balanced for maximum absorption and plant uptake (up to 100%) of the corresponding nutrients (main active ingredient) in micronutrient fertilizers.
Depending on the type of micronutrient fertilizers, among other components, colofermin may contain colamine, various complexes of amino acids, micronutrients, including nitrogen, sulfur, sodium in sufficiently high concentrations (up to 280 g/L). Therefore, colofermin also serves as an additional source of plant nutrition.
Due to the above-mentioned factors, our formulations are more effective than the ones, produced by our competitors, even if they have a little higher concentration of an active ingredient.
LURS® colofermin molibdenum eliminates effectively molybdenum deficiency in plants, is completely absorbed by the leaf surface of plants.
Deficiency of molybdenum in plants results in light green color of the leaves and appearance of spots.
Compatibility: LURS® colofermin molibdenum performs well in tank mixes with herbicides, insecticides, fungicides and biological preparations. Prior to starting preparation of a tank mix, always check the formulations for compatibility.
To avoid leaf and fruit burn, do not apply the formulations in high air temperatures. To obtain the maximum effect, it is advisable to conduct treatments in the evening.
Treatment during the flowering period is not recommended.
The micronutrient fertilizer LURS® colofermin molibdenum performs well in tank mixes with inoculants. The formulation has a slightly alkaline reaction, therefore, the biological activity of root nodule bacteria increases.
LURS® colofermin molibdenum has a significant physiological effect on plants, namely:
- activates the process of atmospheric nitrogen binding by rhizobia;
- accelerates photosynthesis, nitrogenous metabolism and plant respiration;
- prevents accumulation of nitrates;
- increases protein content in the seeds of legumes.
1. INFORMATION FOR CONSUMERS: follow the instructions when using the formulation. The efficacy of the formulation and its ease of use depend on the application, storage and transportation conditions specified by the manufacturer.
2. COMPATIBILITY WITH OTHER FORMULATIONS: the micronutrient fertilizer is applied during the growing season either prophylactically or according to the diagnostics results based on the application regulations. It performs well in tank mixes with plant protection products (unless otherwise specified by the manufacturer of the plant protection products), urea (in the recommended concentrations when using foliar fertilization of agricultural crops according to the crop growth stages), UAN, plant growth regulators, microfertilizers and biological preparationsand inoculants in the case of seed treatment.
3. PREPARATION OF WORKING TANK SOLUTION.
3.1 FOLIAR APPLICATIONS:
Warning! Prior to starting preparation of a tank mix, always check the formulations for compatibility!
For this purpose take a container, pour in it some water (which is to be used for the main application), add the tank mix components in proportions, based on the field rates of consumption. After closing the container, mix the contents by shaking it 10-15 times. Evaluate the tank mixture visually twice: immediately after mixing and after the mixture has settled (in about 30 minutes). Incompatibility of formulations is indicated by their separation into layers, residuum occurrence, flocculation of the mixture, formation of sludge that does not disperse.
Attention! It is possible to use the formulation in hard water. The active substances contained in it do not form compounds with hardness salts (СаSO4٠2H2О), hence the solution does not grow turbid.
If there are no compatibility problems, prepare the working solution just before spraying (direct application). Shake the product thoroughly in the original package and pour it directly into the sprayer tank, which is to be previously filled with water to 2/3 of its volume. After this with the mixing mode turned on add the components of the tank mixture in sequence stated in the recommendations and finish the process with filling the tank with water. Stirring of the mixture should be continued throughout the period of its preparation, as well as during application.
Application rates of the spraying solution: field crops — 70-300 L/ha, vegetables — 300-400 L/ha, fruit crops and grapes — 800-1000 L/ha.
3.2 SEED TREATMENT:¶
Warning! Prior to starting preparation of a tank mix, always check the formulations for compatibility! No residuum should form in the test solutions.¶
If there are no compatibility problems, shake the product thoroughly in the original package and pour it directly into the sprayer tank, which is to be previously filled with water.¶
Application rates of the spraying solution: seed treatment – 10 L/t.¶

5. APPLICATION REQUIREMENTS
5.1 FOLIAR APPLICATIONS: spraying should be done either early in the morning or in the evening, when the humidity level is high to avoid chemical leaf burn. The optimum air temperature is +10…+25 °С (50 — 77 ºF), wind speed up to 5 — 7 m/s depending on the sprayer type. It is not recommended carrying out spraying operations during foggy weather or in the presence of dew, which can lead to surface overflow of the solution and hence the reduction of the treatment efficiency. The spraying should be stopped 1.5 — 2 hours before the rain.
Attention! Use а freshly mixed solution. Do not store the prepared solution more than 24 hours.
5.2 SEED TREATMENT: the application of the formulation does not require any specific conditions during seed treatment. ¶
Attention! Use а freshly mixed solution. Do not store the prepared solution more than 24 hours.¶
6. STORAGE AND TRANSPORTATION:
The formulation should be stored in a warehouse or storage building, designed specifically for this purpose. Storage area should be free of direct sunlight, moisture, pollution and mechanical damage to the container. Store at temperature above 0 ºС below +30 ºС (50 — 86 ºF), in the original closed package in an upright position, with the cap facing up in a cardboard box. Do not stack cardboard boxes more than 3 high.
