Drought stress
23 April 2020
The dryness in certain regions is causing extreme problems again this spring. At this year’s P/K Symposium, Dr Novotny told us what we can do about it. We have two solutions:
1. Overcoming drought stress
(in long periods of drought)
Do not mix with any other treatment! Do not use N!
Quantities given are per hectare. Crops still need to be green when applying. Apply in the morning!
Can provide up to 14 days longer protection against drought.
The dryness in certain regions is causing extreme problems again this spring. At this year’s P/K Symposium, Dr Novotny told us what we can do about it. We have two solutions:
1. Overcoming drought stress
- 200 l water
- 150 g citric acid (for 200 l water)
- 1 l AKRA Plus 9
- 3 l AKRA MSB if necessary – to stunt growth from GS35
- 1 l AKRA Sulpur+ if necessary (fungal infection)
(in long periods of drought)
- 200 l water
- 150 g citric acid (for 200 l water)
- 1 l AKRA Plus 9
Do not mix with any other treatment! Do not use N!
Quantities given are per hectare. Crops still need to be green when applying. Apply in the morning!

Test area with AKRA Straw R+P+K for straw management and controll of blackleg
Picture description:
- 2 years ago half of the field was treated with AKRA straw R+P+K (2016 after WG)
- No treatment (Grey straw - blackleg disease)
Harvest 2018 with WG in comparison 1.6 t/ha less yield!!
previous crop 2017 over the whole area ZR

Blackleg 2018
June 27, 2018
In agriculture, the symptoms of blackleg are often not recognised and are confused with the effects of pre-summer dryness (shrivelled grains). Damage symptoms: after harvesting, the cereal stubble can easily be removed from the soil. Blackleg is the most widespread crop disease worldwide - no fungicides are effective.
Combat: Our sales force will inform and advise you.

Wheat Yellow Mosaic Virus on the rise!
April 16, 2018
Wheat yellow mosaic virus (WYMV) is breaking out severely among wheat crops in Hungary (see picture from April 16), sometimes resulting in total infestation, and isolated cases have also been seen in Austria. We can expect the disease to break out here within a few days/weeks. It is, therefore, important to monitor crops closely today.
Combatting the disease directly is impossible. However, it is noticeable that crops treated with the AKRA formula are significantly less affected, whereas affected wheat can be helped with an anti-stress treatment:

- 0.25 l of AKRA Azotobacter
- 0.25 l of AKRA AZO+
- 0.4 l AKRA WD
- 10 kg urea
- 150–200 l water
