Retaceil 720 RK

European precision in crop management: Retacel 720 RK

Managing stalk development is a fundamental aspect of high-yield cereal production. Retacel 720 RK, a plant growth regulator manufactured by the renowned Czech company Lučební závody Draslovka, serves as a cornerstone for farmers looking to mitigate lodging risks in small-grain cereals. With its proven formula based on chlormequat-chloride, the product remains a staple in modern agricultural protocols.

Technical efficiency and field application

Retacel 720 RK functions by altering the plant’s hormonal balance, specifically targeting the inhibition of gibberellins. This process results in shorter, thicker stalks and enhanced root development. Key advantages include:

• Increased stability for winter wheat, rye, barley, and oats under adverse weather conditions.
• Optimization of crop architecture for better resource utilization.
• Improved harvestability, reducing yield losses caused by mechanical stress or lodging.

The formulation, presented as an aqueous solution, ensures easy mixing and consistent application across large areas. Classified under the 4th hazard level, it is a well-regarded tool for professional farm management when applied according to the manufacturer’s guidelines. Lučební závody Draslovka brings a long history of chemical expertise to this product, providing consistent concentration and reliable performance, which has cemented the reputation of Retacel 720 RK as a dependable choice for cereal growers across Europe.
