Along with good crop growth, timely flowering, flower retention, and the process of flowers converting into fruits/grains are crucial for a good yield. Especially in groundnut, cotton, and soybean, the crop requires proper nutrition and growth promoters during the flowering and fruiting stages.
Groundnut
- In groundnut, the period around 45-60 days is crucial for flowering and fruiting.
- Preventing flower drop is also an important factor.
- At this stage, using proper crop management alongside a suitable bio-stimulant increases the pegging (suya setting) in the crop and improves the flower-to-pod conversion ratio.
Cotton
- In cotton, the square and boll formation stage is highly important from a production perspective.
- It is also necessary to prevent square drop and increase the ratio of squares converting into bolls.
- Additionally, it is essential to support the crop's stress tolerance capacity during this time.
Soybean
- In soybean, the time from flowering to pod setting is critical for production.
- Based on the crop's needs and farming conditions during the flowering and fruiting stage, it is necessary to use appropriate bio-stimulants to help retain flowers, assist in pod setting, and support the crop against stress.
Proper Crop Stage + Proper Nutrition Management + Gravity = Better Chances for Good Flowering and Fruiting
- Gravity can be used according to the crop's requirements during the critical flowering and fruiting stages in groundnut, cotton, and soybean.
