Trials with DCM VITACT® R showed improved nutrient uptake and the following results:
A larger root surface area: a longer and more highly branched root system with more lateral roots
Stronger development of both above-ground and below-ground plant parts thanks to improved nutrient uptake
Improved plant anchorage
A higher establishment rate after seeding
Increased tolerance to certain types of abiotic stress
When this biostimulant was applied to turfgrass, trials showed a higher success rate during establishment and improved anchorage of the turf.
