Kelcat Manganese

Why manganese deficiency is a silent threat to your yield

Manganese deficiency doesn't always appear instantly, but by the time chlorosis manifests on your vegetable or cereal leaves, the drop in photosynthetic activity is already critical. Kelkat Manganese from the Spanish company Atlantica Agricola is engineered for agronomists who prefer proactive crop protection over reactionary treatment.

The technological edge of the formula

Unlike simple manganese salts, Kelkat provides the element in a stable chelated form. This is crucial for efficacy: the water-soluble granules do not bind in soil solutions and penetrate leaf tissue seamlessly during foliar application. Atlantica Agricola’s laboratories have perfected this complex's stability, ensuring it remains fully soluble in tank mixes without forming sediment.

Key Advantages:

• Bioavailability: The chelate shell ensures 100% absorption of the micronutrient by the crop.
• Versatility: The product is highly effective across diverse crops, from manganese-hungry sugar beets and potatoes to intensive fruit orchards and cereal fields.
• Logistical Efficiency: The water-soluble granule formulation eliminates common issues associated with liquid fertilizers, such as leakage or freezing during transport.

With an application rate of 0.5–2 kg per hectare, it is a cost-effective solution for both large-scale operations and smaller farming enterprises. It is particularly effective on high-pH carbonate soils, where native manganese often becomes locked and unavailable to plants.

Who needs this product most?

This is an essential input for anyone cultivating crops with high nitrogen metabolism requirements, such as corn or wheat. Without sufficient manganese, protein and carbohydrate synthesis slows down, leading to lower grain quality and reduced sugar content in root crops. Kelkat Manganese is not just a fertilizer; it is a precision farming tool that shields your harvest from the hidden costs of micronutrient deficiency.
