Effect
Increased produce quality
Kelpak treated Spring Wheat, cv. Katoda, grown in a field had 6.3 % more generative tillers, 0.7 % more grains per ear, the same 1000-kernel weight, a 7.1 % higher grain yield, a 8.1 % lower straw yield, a 7.9 % higher harvest index, grains contained 3.4 % less N, 0.6 % less P, 0.9 % more K and 1.9 % less Mg compared to the untreated control.
