Active ingredient: Chlormequat chloride, 750 g/l.
Formulation: Soluble Liquid (SL).
Advantages:
Significantly reduces the risk of lodging in cereals by strengthening mechanical stem tissues.
Stimulates an increase in productive tillers.
Enhances plant tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses (diseases, pests, temperature fluctuations).
Facilitates harvesting and improves grain quality.
Target crops and main purposes:
Winter and spring wheat, spring barley, winter rye: Prevention of lodging, stem reinforcement, yield enhancement.
Winter and spring rapeseed: Growth regulatory action, promotion of branching, pod and seed formation, improved winter hardiness.
Mechanism of action: Chlormequat chloride inhibits the biosynthesis of gibberellins (plant growth hormones). Consequently, stem elongation is controlled, internodes are shortened evenly, stem walls thicken, and mechanical tissues become stronger.
