Main advantages
- Mepiquat chloride slows gibberellins — internodes shorten
- Autumn, 4–6 leaves — against overgrowth of oilseed rape
- Spring, height 20–30 cm — against lodging
- Rate 0.6–1.2 l/ha — both in autumn and in spring
Overview
About this product
Graves is mepiquat chloride 250 g/L and tebuconazole 110 g/L in an oil-in-water emulsion. Mepiquat chloride slows gibberellin synthesis, so the internodes of oilseed rape shorten and the root collar thickens; tebuconazole, a triazole, penetrates through the green parts and moves in the xylem.
In autumn the crops are sprayed at the 4–6 leaf stage to prevent overgrowth and improve overwintering, in spring at a plant height of 20–30 cm against lodging and to optimise the plant habit. Rate 0.6–1.2 l/ha, no more than two treatments, 50 days from treatment to harvest.
Working solution 200–300 l/ha. Pack size 5 l.
