Multimin has three main uses. It can be used to correct manganese and copper deficiencies, act as maintenance treatment in intensive rotations and be used as a foliar stimulant to stressed crops growing in adverse conditions.   Micronutrient deficiencies are common on light and medium soils with high pH and particularly where liming has been practised or where heavy applications of nitrogen and potash have been used. Maintenance treatments with Multimin are essential in high yielding crops where there is a need for a regular supply of micronutrients. The yield and quality of such crops is often limited due to an insufficient supply of micronutrients at key growth stages of the crop.
