Description
Fertigrain Foliar, a product of Jaffer Brothers Agro Services Pvt. Ltd., is a 1-liter water-soluble fertilizer formulated with amino acids derived from vegetable extracts. It falls under the category of Plant Growth Regulators, with a subcategory of Amino Acids.
Key Features and Benefits:
- Amino Acid Source: Fertigrain Foliar provides readily available amino acids, the building blocks of proteins essential for all plant functions.
- Stress Mitigation: It can help plants cope with abiotic stress (non-living environmental factors) by supplementing amino acids depleted during stress response.
- Enhanced Nutrient Uptake: The product may improve plant's ability to absorb nutrients from the soil.
-
Improved Plant Growth and Yield: By supporting protein synthesis and nutrient uptake, Fertigrain Foliar can potentially lead to:
- Enhanced plant vigor
- Increased flowering and fruiting
- Improved fruit retention
- Higher overall yield and quality
Mode of Action:
Plants naturally produce amino acids, but their availability can decrease under stress conditions. Fertigrain Foliar provides supplemental amino acids, allowing plants to:
- Maintain protein synthesis for essential growth processes.
- Improve nutrient uptake efficiency.
- Potentially better tolerate stress conditions.
Application:
- Target Crops: Fertigrain Foliar is suitable for various crops like wheat, rice, maize, sorghum, sunflower, and sugarcane.
- Mixing and Application: The product is recommended to be tank-mixed with pesticides for added convenience. Refer to the product label for specific mixing ratios and application timings.
- Application Rates: The suggested application rates vary depending on the crop type and typically range around 500 ml per acre per spray.
Important Considerations:
- Always follow the product label instructions for optimal results and to avoid potential harm to crops.
- Soil Testing: A proper soil test can provide valuable insights into your soil's nutrient profile and may reveal additional nutrient requirements beyond amino acids.
- Consult with an agricultural advisor to determine if Fertigrain Foliar is suitable for your specific needs and develop a comprehensive crop management plan for optimal growth and yield.
