Magnesium is key nutrient used in photosynthesis, ensures optimal enzyme activity for protein synthesis and has roles in aiding phosphate and nitrogen metabolism together with energy transfer. Molybdenum is important for grain set and embryo maintenance. It is involved in enzyme functions associated with nitrate reduction and sulphur metabolism. Molybdenum deficiency in brassica crops, especially cauliflower, can lead to a narrowing of leaves known as “whiptail”. R100 biostimulant boosts the uptake and utilization of cationic nutrients (e.g. Mg) and increases cytokinin levels to stimulate growth.
Magnesium is essential for plant growth as a key component of the chlorophyll molecule at the heart of photosynthesis. It is important for the metabolism of phosphate and nitrogen as well as being crucial for a large
number of enzymes necessary for plant growth and protein synthesis. Magnesium along with potassium regulates water uptake by the plant and adequate magnesium levels are important for the establishment of a crop.
Magnesium is in the centre of the chlorophyll molecule and so it is usual to see that the increases in nutrient uptake caused by Magistrate R100 lead to more chlorophyll production in the leaves. Raised chlorophyll levels will enhance the amount of photosynthesis in the crop that will positively affect growth and development and often feed through to increased yield.
Molybdenum is important for nitrogen fixation; therefore, legumes have a particularly high requirement. However, it is also a component of the Nitrate Reductase enzyme which is used by all crops to assimilate nitrates into proteins. Sulphur is vital in protein synthesis as a component of some amino acids and is also important for the correct function of several enzymes.
| Contains | % w/w | g/l | |
| Magnesium | MgO | 6.10 | 73.81 |
| Molybdenum | Mo | 0.50 | 6.05 |
| Sulphur | SO3 | 12.10 | 146.41 |
Magistrate R100 is suitable for a wide range of crops, including cereals, brassicas, legumes and other broadacre crops where magnesium, molybdenum, or sulphur levels are low or where demand is high during peak growth stages.
In cereals, it can be applied at T2 and T3 fungicide timings to help maintain green leaf area for longer. In other crops, apply during periods of rapid canopy development or when nutrient demand is high.
R100 increases cytokinin levels to stimulate cell division and growth, while enhancing the uptake and utilisation of cationic nutrients such as magnesium. This ensures faster and more efficient nutrient delivery to the plant.
Yes. By supplying magnesium, which is a core component of chlorophyll, it supports increased chlorophyll production, enabling higher rates of photosynthesis, better growth and potentially higher yields.
Magistrate R100 is readily compatible with most crop protection and nutrition products, making it easy to integrate into existing spray programmes. Always follow standard jar-test procedures for unusual combinations.
Molybdenum is essential for nitrate reductase activity, which converts nitrate into amino acids and proteins. Adequate molybdenum levels ensure better nitrogen use efficiency across all crops.
Sulphur is a key building block for certain amino acids and enzymes, supporting protein production and overall plant metabolism. It works in synergy with nitrogen to maximise yield potential.
Yes. Preventative use during key growth stages helps avoid hidden hunger and ensures crops have the nutrients needed to reach full potential, while curative applications can help correct deficiencies quickly.
By maintaining balanced nutrient supply and enhancing uptake, Magistrate R100 helps sustain green leaf area to optimise photosynthesis and improve the crop’s resilience against environmental and nutritional stress.
