Benefits of Kelpak on Cotton
Kelpak increases cotton's ability to explore a larger soil volume due to increased root density. This in turn allows the cotton, when at full boll load, to access more soil resources resulting in reduced boll shedding:
- Improves rooting
- Improves drought resistance
- Better plant vigour
- Improves flowering
- More first position fruit
- Increases total boll count
- Increases yield
