Extended Duration of Grain Filling

Active GrainFILL™ provides potassium in an easily absorbed form. Potassium is a key element in remobilization of food reserves to developing grains during the grain filling stage. Potassium helps extend the grain filling duration.

​

Nitrogen Remobilization

Both Nitrogen and Potassium help build new tissues after pollination and fertilization. Nitrogen plays a role in achieving high grain yield with adequate protein content. Nitrogen remobilization to grains after flowering naturally occurs in the form of amino acids. The 12 free amino acids in Active GrainFILL™ help enhance this process.

​

Timely Nitrogen Supply

Amino acids help plants during stress situations by acting as osmolytes (cell pressure regulators), regulating ion transport, modulating stomatal opening, and detoxifying heavy metals. Plants supplied with Active GrainFILL™ contains many amino acids, including proline, to help the plant mitigate abiotic stress.

​

Helps Optimize Grain Size and Weight

Better nutrition and extended grain filling helps maintain yields during stress conditions or improve yields during normal growing conditions. At least 30% of harvested grain nitrogen is linked to post anthesis (post flowering) nitrogen supply. It is clear that an adequate supply of nitrogen during grain filling is critical for good yields. A simple way of providing nitrogen during post anthesis is to tank mix Active GrainFILL™ with other compatible agrochemicals sprayed during this period.
