EFFECT OF AGROSTEMIN ON PEAR

The discovery of Agrostemin, made by Dr.
Danica Gajic some 30 years ago is the result of a systematic investigation of the allelopatic relationship among plants, and in particular the relationship between corn-cockle/Agrostemma githago L./ and wheat/Triticum vulgare/. It is a new category of natural bioregulators/as brassins and triacanthanols/, beneficial on the intensity of chlorophyl, growth of root and vegetative mass, productivity and quality of products, without any negative side effects.

Agrostemin can be used in two ways : for seed dusting, and for spraying of vegetative organs.
In some fruit species it should be applied before the blossom, at the stage of "mouse ear", while in stone fruits, immediately after the blossom, always at the same dose of one gram per one hectare.
It is compatible with all kinds of pesticides and foliar fertilizers.

The main physical and chemical properties of Agrostemin are as follows: melting point 225°C, colour grey white, physical stable powder, stability in powder unlimited, with main active ingredient/active/are : allantoin, tryptophan, folic acid, orcialanine, glutamic acid, allantoic acid and adenine.
