Results for tag: "Cytokinins"

Cytokinins are a class of plant hormones that promote cell division and growth. They are used in agrochemicals and fertilizers to increase crop yields and improve the quality of the produce. Cytokinins are also used to regulate the growth of plants, and to increase their resistance to environmental stress. They are also used to promote flowering and fruit set. Cytokinins are available in both synthetic and natural forms. Synthetic cytokinins are produced through chemical synthesis, while natural cytokinins are derived from plant sources. The use of synthetic cytokinins is more common in agrochemicals and fertilizers, as they are more cost-effective and have a longer shelf life. The agrochemicals and fertilizers market is expected to grow in the coming years, driven by the increasing demand for food and the need to increase crop yields. The use of cytokinins in agrochemicals and fertilizers is expected to increase as well, as they are an effective way to increase crop yields and improve the quality of the produce. Some of the major companies in the cytokinins market include BASF, Syngenta, Bayer, DowDuPont, and Nufarm. Show Less Read more
