Abstract
A substance for treating plants to optimise crop yield and/or to provide animal nutrition via grazing of the treated plants consists of water dispersible granules containing at least one trace element and a binder. The substance is applied to the plants as a solution or suspension in water, for example by spraying, and adheres to the foliage on drying. The binder is selected to maintain the granular form of the dry substance and to provide the adhesion to the foliage following application of the substance, and may be a salt of lignosulphonic acid, molasses, starch or carboxymethylcellulose.
Description
SPECIFICATION
Trace element composition
SUBSTANCE
This invention relates to substances and in particular to substances which contain at least one trace element for treating plants to optimise crop yield and/or to provide animal nutrition via grazing of the treated plants.
It is known to treat plants with trace elements to improve crop yield and/or to provide animal nutrition by making up a solution or suspension in water of raw materials containing the trace elements and applying the solution or suspension to the plants.
A disadvantage of this method is that it requires handling of different raw materials, each of which has to be accurately measured to provide the correct dosage so as-to avoid waste of the expensive materials and the possible harmful effects of over dosing.
This is unsatisfactory as variations can often occur in the strength of the solution or suspension each time a batch is made up precluding uniform dosing for each treatment.
A further disadvantage of such method is the requirement to maintain a store of several raw materials for making up the solution or suspension.
It is an object of the present invention to overcome or at least mitigate the disadvantages aforementioned.
According to the present invention we provide a substance for treating plants to optimise crop yield and/or to provide animal nutrition via grazing of the treated plants, the substance consisting of water dispersible granules containing at least one trace element and a binder.
The invented substance facilitates treatment of plants by a solution or suspension containing a trace element by incorporating the trace element together with a binder in water dispersible granules for addition to water to make up a solution or suspension when required.
As a result, dosing can be accurately controlled by adding a measured quantity of the granules to the appropriate volume of water and can be repeated to each subsequent treatment.
In this way, uniformity between treatments for the best results is ensured and efficient cost effective use is made of the relatively expensive trace element.
Furthermore, the user only has to store and handle the granules as opposed to the individual raw materials and can estimate accurately the amount of granules required for each treatment so that stocks of the substance can be carefully controlled depending on usage.
Additionally, it has been found that by incorporating the trace element together with a binder in water dispersible granules, the invented substance generally has an improved shelf-life as compared with the raw materials providing further benefits both to the user and to the manufacturer.
The trace element is preferably selected from the group consisting of manganese, copper, boron, magnesium, molybdenum, iron, zinc, sulphur, cobalt, iodine and selenium.
Conveniently, the trace element is provided by an inorganic compound such as manganese chloride, manganese sulphate, manganese carbonate, manganese nitrate, copper sulphate, copper hydroxide, copper oxychloride, copper carbonate, sodium borate, borax, boric oxide, magnesium sulphate, magnesium oxide, sodium molybdate, iron sulphate, zinc sulphate, cobalt sulphate, potassium iodide, potassium iodate, sodium selenite or sodium selenate.
The substance is advantageously applied to the plants as either a solution or a suspension in water, for example by spraying, and the binder is selected both to maintain the granular form of the dry substance and to ensure that, following application, the substance adheres strongly to the foliage of the treated plant on drying. Preferred binders are selected from the group consisting of the salts of lignosulphonic acids, molasses, starches and carboxymethylcellulose.
To facilitate identification, the substance may be colour coded by the addition of suitable dyestuffs or pigments, for example the substance may be given a red colour by the addition of ariavit erythrosine.
The composition of the substance may be selected to suit any given application and, depending on the particular application, the substance may contain more than one of each of the above-mentioned trace elements and binders. Preferably the trace element(s) form the major constituent of the substance and the binder(s) is only present in an amount su- fficient to provide the strength to the dry granules and the adhesion to the treated plant.
The granular form of the substance may be obtained by any known method and apparatus which promotes agglomoration of the constituents into flowable granules with minimum quantities of dust. Preferably the granules are graded, for example by sieving, to provide a uniform granule size.
The invention will now be described by way of the following examples of the compositions of five substances according to the present invention that are suitable for foliar application to arable/fruit crops of micronutrients.
EXAMPLE 1
94.2% w/w Manganese sulphate monohydrate (29% Mn)
5.8% w/w Ultrazine NA (sodium salt of lignosulphonic acid)
EXAMPLE 2
95.0% w/w Manganese sulphate monohy drate (29.5 /ó Mn)
5.0% w/w Molasses applied as a 60/40 molasses:water solution.
EXAMPLE 3
95.0% w/w Manganese sulphate monohydrate (29.5% Mn)
2.5% w/w calcium Lignosulphonate
2.5% w/w Molasses
trace Ariavit Erythrosine (Red Dye)
EXAMPLE 4
58.0% w/w Manganese Sulphate Monohydrate (18% Mn)
35.0% w/w Zinc Oxide (28% Zn) 7.0 /0 w/w Lignosulphonate or Molasses
trace Ariavit Green S (Dyestuff)
EXAMPLE 5
29.0% w/w Manganese Sulphate-Monohydrate (9% Mn) 64,0% w/w Zinc Sulphate Heptahydrate (14.7% Zn)
7.0% w/w Molasses or Lignosulphonate.
The compositions of the substances given in the above examples may be formulated to include a wetting agent. Suitable wetting agents are polyethoxylates.
As will be appreciated from the foregoing description, the present invention provides a granular substance containing the required trace element(s) in the required amounts for any particular application which can be made up into a solution or suspension in water for accurate dosing of plants.
Treatment of the plants is thereby greatly simplified and can be controlled with a greater degree of accuracy and uniformity than possible when making up solutions or suspensions from several raw materials each of which has to be accurately measured. Also the problems and disadvantages of storing and handling several raw materials are obviated by providing a single substance in a granular form ready for addition to water to make up a solution or suspension.
