Upon application, Ethephon is absorbed by plant tissues, where it decomposes and releases ethylene, which in turn triggers a variety of growth responses. These include promoting fruit ripening, enhancing flowering, and influencing plant senescence. Concentration and FormulationThe 480g/l concentration of Ethephon in SL formulation provides optimal efficiency in a liquid form, ensuring better absorption and faster results when applied to crops. The formulation is designed for easy handling, accurate dosing, and efficient application, making it ideal for large-scale agricultural operations. Application FlexibilityEthephon 480g/l SL can be applied to a wide range of crops and can be integrated into different farming systems. It is available in liquid form, making it easy to mix with water or other compatible agricultural chemicals for various uses. Primary Applications of Ethephon 480g/l SL 1. Fruit Ripening Enhancement One of the most well-known applications of Ethephon is in accelerating the ripening process of fruits, particularly for crops such as: Tomatoes: Ethephon is widely used to promote uniform ripening and shorten the time from flowering to harvest. Bananas: The application of Ethephon helps control the timing of banana ripening, ensuring a consistent harvest. Pineapples and Mangoes: It accelerates fruit maturation, allowing for early harvesting in markets. Citrus Fruits: Ethephon is used to induce uniform color development and ripening. 2. Flower Induction and Enhancement Ethephon can be used to promote flowering in various crops, especially those that have a specific flowering requirement or in commercial horticulture. It stimulates ethylene production, triggering the flowering process in plants such as: Ornamental Plants: Ethephon is commonly used in floriculture to stimulate flowering in plants like chrysanthemums and lilies. Cotton: In cotton cultivation, Ethephon can induce flowering and synchronize the blooming process, which leads to improved cotton yield. 3. Control of Vegetative Growth Ethephon plays a key role in regulating vegetative growth, particularly in controlling excessive growth in crops such as: Tobacco: Ethephon is used to reduce excess vegetative growth and promote better leaf production and maturation. Cabbage and Lettuce: Helps in controlling vegetative growth, ensuring that the plant’s energy is used for head formation and improving the overall quality of the crop. 4. Enhancing Crop Yield and Quality By regulating the timing of maturity and ensuring uniform ripening, Ethephon helps in improving the overall yield and quality of the crops. This is beneficial not only for farmers but also for post-harvest handling and transport. Benefits of Ethephon 480g/l SL Improved Crop Yield and UniformityEthephon's ability to synchronize ripening and flowering results in more uniform crops, making harvesting more efficient and reducing losses. This uniformity also improves the aesthetic quality of fruits and vegetables, leading to better marketability. Increased Harvesting FlexibilityWith its role in regulating plant maturation, Ethephon offers greater flexibility in harvest timing, ensuring that crops can be harvested at the optimal point for quality and market demand. Optimized Fertilizer and Water Use EfficiencyBy controlling plant growth, Ethephon helps optimize the use of fertilizers and water, as plants focus their energy on the productive processes rather than excessive vegetative growth. This leads to more efficient resource use and reduced costs. Reduced Post-Harvest LossesBy controlling the timing and uniformity of ripening, Ethephon helps reduce post-harvest losses due to premature ripening or uneven maturation. This is particularly beneficial in fruits and vegetables that are sensitive to changes in ripening conditions. SPECIFICATION         High quality Ethephon 480g/l SL  CAS:16672-87-0 Common name Ethephon Other name 2-Chloroethylphosphonic Acid Molecular formula C2H6ClO3P Formulation type Ethephon Technical: 98%TC Mode of Action Ethephon for improving output and adjusting the growing. APPLICATIONS          How to Apply Ethephon 480g/l SL Application Methods Foliar Spray: The most common method of application is spraying Ethephon directly onto the plant leaves, stems, or fruit. This method ensures quick absorption and efficient ethylene release. Soil Treatment: For some crops, Ethephon can be applied to the soil to control growth and influence flowering and fruiting. Application Rates The recommended dosage of Ethephon depends on the type of crop, growth stage, and environmental conditions. Tomatoes and Fruits: 0.5 to 1 liter of Ethephon per hectare. Flowers and Ornamentals: 100-200 ml per hectare, depending on plant size and growth stage. Safety and Handling Always wear protective gear when handling and applying Ethephon, including gloves, goggles, and a respirator if necessary. Avoid contact with the skin, eyes, and avoid inhaling vapors. Ethephon is toxic to aquatic life; care should be taken to prevent runoff into water sources.
