Triacontanol EC 0.05% Min is a plant growth regulator widely used in agriculture to enhance crop growth, yield, and quality.1
Here is a breakdown of what this specific product refers to, its mode of action, and its benefits:
| Term | Meaning |
| Triacontanol | The active ingredient. It is a naturally occurring long-chain fatty alcohol found in plant cuticle waxes, such as alfalfa and beeswax. It acts as a plant growth regulator (PGR). |
| EC | Emulsifiable Concentrate. This is the formulation type. It means the product is a liquid containing the active ingredient dissolved in a solvent with emulsifying agents, allowing it to mix easily with water for spraying (typically foliar spray). |
| 0.05% Min. | Minimum Concentration. This indicates that the formulation contains a minimum of 0.05% (w/w or w/v) of active Triacontanol. |
Triacontanol is a metabolic activator that influences plant physiological processes:2
Enhanced Photosynthesis: It increases the efficiency of the photosynthetic process and promotes chlorophyll content, which leads to increased food (sugar/carbohydrate) production by the plant.
Increased Cell Division: It improves the rate of cell division, leading to larger and healthier roots and shoots.
Enzymatic Activity: It enhances enzymatic activity and hormone functionality within the plant.
Improved Nutrient Uptake: It helps the plant absorb and utilize essential minerals and water more efficiently from the soil.
Stress Resistance: It can help plants combat environmental stresses like drought, temperature fluctuations, and disease.
Using Triacontanol EC 0.05% Min can lead to several agricultural benefits:
Increased Yield: By boosting growth and metabolic activity, it significantly increases the overall yield of grains, fruits, and vegetables.
Better Crop Quality: It improves the quality of the produce, for instance, by giving fruits a more attractive color and increasing the starch content in crops like potatoes.
Faster Growth: It accelerates plant growth, leading to earlier and more uniform maturity of crops.
Stronger Development: Promotes better root development and a healthier overall plant structure.
Reduced Flower/Fruit Dropping: It enhances fruit setting by preventing premature dropping of flowers and young fruits.
This plant growth regulator is commonly recommended for use on a wide range of crops, including:
Cereals: Rice, Wheat, Maize
Oilseeds/Pulses: Groundnut (Peanut), Soybeans
Vegetables: Tomato, Chilies, Potato, Leafy vegetables
Fiber Crops: Cotton
It is primarily applied as a foliar spraya solution mixed with water is sprayed directly onto the leaves of the crop. Specific dosage and application timing (e.g., 2-3 sprays at specific intervals after planting) should always follow the manufacturer's label instructions for the target crop.
