UMG MICRO (brands: UMG MICRO BrassicaStart, UMG MICRO HeliaStart,

Precision nutrition for early growth

Micro-granular fertilizers UMG MICRO, manufactured by Also Kikoto (Hungary), are engineered for a single critical goal: to provide high-efficiency targeted nutrition during the initial germination and root establishment phase. By applying specialized products like UMG MICRO BrassicaStart (for rapeseed) and UMG MICRO HeliaStart (for sunflower) directly into the seed furrow, farmers can ensure that the plant has an immediate energy boost right when it needs it most.

Why micro-granules are a game-changer

The composition, featuring 28–46% phosphorus along with a precise blend of boron, copper, manganese, magnesium, iron, and sulfur, addresses the common issues of early development in intensive farming:

• Superior root architecture: Rapid phosphorus delivery stimulates cell division, helping seedlings overcome early-stage competition and soil conditions.
• Environmental resilience: The micronutrient complex enhances the plant's ability to withstand temperature fluctuations and moisture stress common during the sowing season.
• Maximum nutrient uptake: Applying the product in rows directly to the root zone increases nutrient use efficiency compared to traditional broadcasting methods.

Field performance and usage

Agronomists use UMG MICRO for a wide range of crops including cereals, vegetables, winter rapeseed, and sunflowers. This input is designed to be placed directly into the furrow with the seeds. This method allows the seedling to access the nitrogen, potassium, and sulfur components immediately, preventing deficiencies that can permanently stunt growth in the first few weeks.

Since the product is classified under hazard class 4, it is safe to handle and integrate into existing seeding operations without special safety protocols. Beyond just delivering nutrients, UMG MICRO acts as a starter that ensures uniform field emergence, which is essential for uniform maturity and ease of harvesting. By securing the plant's foundation with these specialized granules, producers can protect their yield potential from the very first day of the season.
