TeMag Elite to make its debut at BTME
Related Articles
Making its debut at BTME 2017 on stand B39 will be TeMag Elite, a three-in-one, water-soluble product, containing a full range of chelated micronutrients and Headland’s Elevate Fe, complexed iron, as well as the unique plant elicitor Harpin™.
The inclusion of Elevate Fe is significant as its chemical structure prevents the iron from oxidising after application so it is non-staining with no risk of wheel marking when applied at the manufacturer’s suggested rates. It also means TeMag Elite is fully tank-mixable with liquid fertilisers, biostimulants and pesticides including many currently available fungicides.
Harpin Protein contained in TeMag Elite is a plant elicitor that works by stimulating the plant to grow better whilst under the effects of stress, disease and/or nematode damage. It does not directly affect a pathogen, nor does it enter the plant. Harpin binds to receptors on the plant leaf and triggers physiological processes within the plant itself. These processes constitute the natural defence mechanism of the plant, referred to as ‘systemic acquired resistance’ (SAR) and provide proven protection against plant pathogenic fungi and nematodes.
In addition, Headland will introduce a brand new product at BTME 2017. This exciting and innovative organic product will be of particular interest to the golf market and is designed to maximise the effect of applied liquid treatments, bringing even more consistency to plant responses whatever the conditions.
