Mekva Pro 750 RK

Strong Straw: The Foundation of Your Harvest

When wheat or barley ears fill with grain, the pressure on the stem becomes critical. Especially in intensive farming, where high doses of nitrogen fertilizers trigger vigorous biomass growth, the risk of crop lodging becomes a major threat to profitability. The plant growth regulator Mekva Pro 750 SL from the British brand Fader Alliance Ltd. is designed specifically to curb the plant's height in favor of increased structural stability.

How Ethephon in Mekva Pro Works

The active ingredient is ethephon (750 g/L). Unlike classic retardants that act on gibberellin synthesis, ethephon releases ethylene directly into the plant tissues. In practical terms for an agronomist, this means:

• Internode Shortening: The stem becomes shorter and thicker at the base.
• Increased Mechanical Tissue Density: Reduces the risk of straw breakage during stormy winds or heavy rainfall.
• Ripening Synchronization: Improves grain filling through more efficient nutrient redistribution.

Why Growers Choose Mekva Pro 750 SL

The product's manufacturing at facilities in the Netherlands and Poland, under the strict supervision of Fader Alliance Ltd., ensures high purity of the active ingredient and formulation stability. The soluble concentrate (SL) blends perfectly in tank mixes without clogging sprayer nozzles, which is essential for large-scale operations.

• Economic Feasibility: Preventing lodging means saving 10–30% of the yield that would otherwise be left on the ground.
• Ease of Use: Hazard class 4 (low-toxicity substance) simplifies staff safety protocols and storage requirements.
• Flexibility: The product fits perfectly into winter cereal technological maps, allowing for vegetative treatment during the phases where lodging risk is highest.

Mekva Pro is the choice for those who prefer to avoid playing dice with nature and aim for a perfectly uniform crop that is easy to harvest.
