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.

Mepiquat chloride functions by inhibiting gibberellin biosynthesis, a natural plant hormone responsible for stem elongation. By suppressing excessive gibberellin activity, it restricts unnecessary vegetative growth, resulting in more compact, sturdier plants with improved nutrient distribution and higher reproductive efficiency.
