Increases yield potential by increasing leaf area and reducing stem growth in cereal crops
Prevents apical dominance in cereals and ryegrass seed crops, improving uniformity, assisting tiller survival and increasing yield through more efficient nitrogen utilization
Reduces stem break and lodging in cereal crops
Ravensdown Chlormequat will reduce stem length, enhance leaf colour and increase leaf area. This will protect yield potential and offer benefits of increased nitrogen efficiency. Ravensdown Chlormequat can also be used to promote seed yield increases in ryegrass seed crops.
Ravensdown Chlormequat will also assist in a reduction of eyespot damage, but in areas where eyespot is and issue then a fungicide registered for eyespot control should still be applied.
Application
Obtain uniform spray coverage using conventional ground boom sprayer and aerial equipment.
Ravensdown Chlormequat is absorbed by the leaves and acts on developing stem, shortening and thickening the internodes. Thereby reducing the risk of stem break and lodging of the crop. This will improve crop uniformity and development increasing the efficiency of nitrogen use and reduce eyespot susceptibility

Add the required amount of Ravensdown Chlormequat to clean water in a half filled spray tank. Start agitation and when thoroughly mixed add the remaining water. Continue agitation during spraying.
Ravensdown Chlormequat is compatible with most commonly used fungicides, insecticides and liquid nitrogen formulations. Mixtures with herbicides are not recommended. When mixing with foliar nutrients add Ravensdown Chlormequat to the tank first.
