Scott Baker, National Agronomy Manager at OMEX<\/a>, explores how foliar feeding can help this year\u2019s high-potential oilseed rape (OSR<\/a>) crops achieve even greater yield and quality.<\/p>\n With fields across the country glowing a vibrant yellow, OSR is in full bloom and performing well overall. However trends in SAP results<\/a> have consistently shown low nitrogen levels in WOSR.<\/p>\n Our Research & Development trials have consistently shown, an OSR<\/a> crop that receives balanced, targeted nutrition can deliver significantly higher yields and improved quality, especially during key growth stages.<\/p>\n Contact us!<\/i><\/a><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n Giving oilseed rape (OSR<\/a>) an extra nutritional boost should be top of mind for growers. With a challenging few years behind us, optimising plant health now will be key to maximising final yield and profitability.<\/p>\n Importantly, once OSR<\/a> begins flowering, it stops taking up nitrogen from the soil. This season\u2019s dry conditions may have left nitrogen<\/a> unused in the root zone, reducing availability to the plant. Foliar<\/a> nitrogen applications offer a targeted solution, delivering nutrients directly to the foliage when the crop needs them most.<\/p>\n Nitrogen is essential to maintain canopy health and support pod and stem greenness, critical factors for yield. After flowering, foliar feeding is the only way to keep the crop photosynthesising effectively, helping to fill what could be a high number of seeds set during recent sunny conditions.<\/p>\n For best results, apply foliar nitrogen at the end of flowering (90\u201395% petal fall) using standard nozzles to thoroughly coat the pods, stems, and upper leaves.<\/p>\n Oilseed Extra<\/i><\/a><\/p>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\t Oilseed Extra is a foliar liquid nutrition containing nitrogen, magnesium and a balanced mix of micronutrients, formulated for the oilseed rape crop.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t In most cases, the solution is clear: Oilseed Extra<\/strong><\/a>. By boosting nitrogen content at the right time, Oilseed Extra<\/a> delivers a greater yield increase than foliar urea alone. In fact, across 26 positive trials, Oilseed Extra<\/a> achieved double the yield increase compared to straight urea. When 40\u201350 kg of nitrogen was applied at or after flowering, the average yield response was 0.3 t\/ha, a significant return on investment.<\/p>\n Backed by research. Proven in the field Oilseed Extra<\/strong><\/a> is the go-to choice for boosting OSR performance this season.<\/p>\n Oilseed Extra<\/i><\/a><\/p>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n At OMEX, we invest heavily in technical trials to ensure our products deliver maximum efficiency and effectiveness. Over 9 consecutive years, trials with Oilseed Extra have consistently demonstrated an impressive average yield increase of 0.61 t\/ha, significantly outperforming foliar urea, which only showed an average increase of 0.3 t\/ha.<\/p>\n In addition, Frontier<\/a> trials spanning five years have yielded consistent, positive results, with an average yield increase of 0.52 t\/ha.<\/p>\n What\u2019s more, in a separate set of 26 positive trials, Oilseed Extra<\/a> provided double the yield increase compared to straight urea, with an average response of 0.3 t\/ha to 40\u201350 kg of nitrogen applied at or after flowering.<\/p>\n\n \n

Know What Your OSR Needs with SAP Analysis<\/strong><\/h2>\n
Understanding your crop\u2019s nutritional status is key to making informed, effective decisions. SAP Analysis<\/strong><\/a> provides a detailed insight into what nutrients your OSR crop may be lacking, allowing your agronomist to tailor recommendations that deliver results. Trends in SAP Analysis have shown consistently low N in Winter OSR, This deficiency can be fixed with Oilseed Extra which contains nitrogen, magnesium and a balanced mix of micronutrients.<\/span><\/p>\n
This high-performance foliar feed contains nitrogen, magnesium, and a carefully balanced mix of essential micronutrients, designed to support the crop through the critical pod and seed development stages.<\/p>\n\n \n
