AIVA MANGANESE — Advanced Foliar Manganese for Maximum Crop Performance

AIVA MANGANESE is a premium, amide-based liquid foliar input engineered to optimise key plant functions, including photosynthesis, respiration, chloroplast development, nitrogen assimilation, and essential enzyme synthesis. Developed using the innovative Flex Technology, AIVA MANGANESE features a true amide complex proven to enhance the uptake, mobility, and overall efficiency of trace elements within the plant.

Why Manganese Matters

Manganese deficiency is widespread and most common in sandy or organic soils with a pH above 6, conditions often intensified by cool, wet weather. Winter crops are particularly vulnerable. During the colder, wetter months, manganese becomes essential for maintaining plant health and resilience.

In winter wheat and winter barley, manganese deficiency can significantly reduce plant populations by causing the loss of shoots and entire plants. Deficiency can also limit growth well before visible leaf symptoms appear, making proactive management critical.

The Science Behind the Performance

Manganese is central to photosynthesis, playing a vital role in the photolysis of water molecules, an energy-releasing step that drives the entire photosynthetic process. AIVA MANGANESE is specifically designed to deliver manganese rapidly and efficiently, ensuring crops receive the nutrient support they need exactly when they need it.

The advanced amide complex in AIVA MANGANESE enables:

• Accelerated Leaf Penetration: The complex chemistry enhances movement through the waxy cuticle, allowing bonded cations and anions to enter the leaf more quickly.
• Optimised Nutrient Delivery: Each molecule contains the full suite of complexed elements, ensuring consistent and efficient uptake across the leaf surface.
• Superior Internal Mobility: Once inside the leaf, nutrients are readily transported via the phloem, supporting growth and productivity throughout the entire plant.
• Reduced Volatilisation & Leaching: The breakdown of the ammonium carrier minimises NH₃ losses and NO₃ leaching, improving nutrient retention and environmental efficiency.

AIVA Manganese is the efficient replacement to popular industry standard Manganese Sulphate inputs.
