Product Description
Chitosan Hydrochloride is belongs to Plant Growth Regulators .It is a biodegradable polymer derived from Chitin, a natural compound found in the exoskeleton of crustaceans. In agriculture, it is used as a Biopesticide and plant growth enhancer. Chitosan Hydrochloride can be used as biofungicides and it has been shown to effectively control various plant diseases, such as fungal and bacterial infections, by inducing plant defense mechanisms. It also can be used as Biostimulants to promote plant growth by enhancing nutrient uptake and stimulating root development. Additionally, Chitosan Hydrochloride is environmentally friendly and non-toxic to humans and animals, making it a sustainable alternative to synthetic pesticides. Its versatility and effectiveness make it a valuable tool for sustainable agriculture practices.
