Maxyield for French Beans
Usually direct seeded. If a nursery is used, mix 10 kg Maxyield into 400 kg nursery medium before filling trays. At sowing or transplanting apply 20 g/m² (approximately 80 kg/acre or 200 kg/ha) in the row or bed and incorporate lightly. Repeat 20 g/m² about 3–4 weeks after emergence or transplanting, before flowering. Irrigate if possible. Total: 40 g/m², approximately 160 kg/acre.
The calculator uses the standard programme in the protocol dated 26 July 2026: 80 kg/acre at planting and 80 kg/acre at top dressing. Nursery medium is excluded. Low-pH increases require agronomic review and are not applied automatically.
Soil pH & crop suitability
pH is a guide, not a yield prediction. These ranges need local soil-test interpretation; unlisted values are not automatically safe.
Best pH conditions for this crop; no yield percentage is promised.
Usually a lower pH risk; test nutrients and monitor the crop.
Increasing risk of reduced growth or yield; investigate soil acidity and nutrition.
Check for nutrient limitations, particularly micronutrients.
Maxyield is a soil conditioner. It does not replace fertiliser or a soil-test-based liming programme. Nursery media rates are separate from field rates.
