Plant growth regulator
APPLICATION:
Triacontanol/ 1-triacontanol is a linear saturated fatty alcohol as plant growth stimulator found in the plant cuticle waxes, which is healthy and safe for human and animal use. Its efficiency is proved for high yield in the case of number of field crops like rice, wheat, tomatoes, maize, lettuce, cucumber, potatoes, cauliflower, etc. The best results have been extremely impressive and have given over 100% increases in yields. The latest researches suggest that triacontanol directly activates the genes that control photosynthesis. These genes in turn activate the enzymes controlling the chemistry of photosynthesis.
Triacontanol (TRIA) is a natural plant growth regulator found in epicuticular waxes. It is used to enhance the crop production in millions of hectares, particularly in Asia. Quite a number of researchers have reported the TRIA-mediated improvement in growth, yield, photosynthesis, protein synthesis, uptake of water and nutrients, nitrogen-fixation, enzymes activities and contents of free amino acids, reducing sugars, soluble protein, and active constituents of essential oil in various crops. Expectedly, TRIA enhances the physiological efficiency of the cells and, thus, exploits the genetic potential of plant to a large extent. In fact, TRIA increased free amino acids, reducing sugars, and soluble protein of rice (Oryza sativa L.) and maize (Zea mays L.) within 5 min.

On application, the active ingredients are quickly absorbed by the plants resulting in improved photosynthesis, increased production of plant hormones and enzymes resulting in improved dry weight accumulation, nutrient content & also retains original taste, aroma and flavour of the agro produce resulting in higher & better quality yields with cost / benefit ratios varying between 1:5 to 1:10. |
BENEFITS |
- More branching, tillering.
- Enhances more bud density of Tea.
- Increases new sprouts to grow.
- Enlarge leaf area.
- Breaks bud dormancy.
- Increases bud vigor- No residual effect.
