Higher yield thanks to correctly timed application
The field trial showed that the best results in winter wheat can be achieved with two applications of Green On® Cereals. The first application supports the formation of productive tillers, the second improves ear development, and together they lead to a significant increase in grain yield.

Summary of results
The trial results show that:
- the first application during tillering supports the formation of productive tillers,
- the second application at stem elongation improves ear development and maximizes yield,
- a third application during flowering no longer brings a further significant yield increase,
- the highest yield was achieved with two applications of Green On®.
Key benefits
- Supports early plant development and grain formation for higher yields.
- Increases resistance to drought and heat stress during the growing season.
- Easy to combine with plant protection products in tank mixes.
- Effectively supports nutrient translocation thanks to a neutral and stable molecule.
- Contains a high proportion of manganese with up to 6× more efficient uptake compared to the EDTA form.
