Mepiquat chloride 5% AS

Description

Mepiquat chloride 5% AS is an aqueous solution which is an important plant growth regulator designed to optimize agricultural productivity. This solution of Mepiquat chloride serves as an important tool in controlling excessive vegetative growth. It is widely used in cotton, wheat, and other crops to reduce plant height, strengthen stems, and promote better flowering and fruit development.

Benefits

  • It controls excessive vegetative growth of plants which prevent lodging problems
  • Increases yield potential by diverting energy toward reproductive growth
  • Promotes early and uniform flowering which leads to a better fruit set
  • Improves nutrient and water utilization and improves crop quality
  • It strengthens plant stems and makes them resistant to environmental stress

How does it works

Mepiquat chloride reduces gibberellin production, restricts excessive stem elongation and promotes balanced growth. Its use leads to more compact plants with better nutrient distribution, leading to higher yields and improved crop quality.
