The latest infographic from Visual Capitalist outlines the growing market for manganese fertilizers, particularly in Brazil. The micronutrient is an essential for plant and animal life and has no substitute, as it is needed chemically for photosynthesis.
The latest infographic from Visual Capitalist outlines the growing market for manganese fertilizers, particularly in Brazil. The micronutrient is an essential for plant and animal life and has no substitute, as it is needed chemically for photosynthesis.
Brazil currently produces 30 percent of the world’s soybeans and continues to expand, however, the soil there tends to be low in manganese micronutrients, which is a major problem for farmers. “Balanced plant nutrition with micronutrients can increase soybean yield by approximately 30 percent, yet manganese is the most common deficiency noted in soybean production in Brazil. Without it, farmers cannot maximize crop yield or revenues.”
