NanoPro® PGR Solutions

Brit Hunter, Technical Agronomist • Nov 30, 2023

NanoPro is the Aqua-Yield® flagship carrier adjuvant for crop protection applications. Add NanoPro to any Plant Growth Regulator (PGR) product to increase plant uptake and amplify the end result for crops. PGR products mimic natural plant hormones that either promote or slow plant growth. The chemical structure of PGR products is highly synergistic with Aqua-Yield nanotechnology. 

Lodging Control

Where growers rely on a PGR product to mitigate the risk of crop lodging that prevents machine harvest, NanoPro is an optimal carrier adjuvant to ensure success. 

Fruit coloration

Using PGRs to enhance fruit coloration can increase marketability and provide a more even and earlier harvest for multiple crops. Products for fruit coloration are enhanced by the addition of NanoPro.

Fruit Retention 

PGRs designed for fruit retention allow growers to increase fruit set or delay maturation to shift the harvest window to protect their crop value. Products for fruit retention are enhanced by the addition of NanoPro.


Grower Standard

ReTain - 11.7 oz

Boric Acid - 3 lbs

Sil-100 - 4 oz

Applied at 100 GPA

Shoot reduction

Reducing shoot growth is beneficial in decreasing the need for pruning and helping to increase yield for subsequent years. NanoPro enhances PGR products which decrease shoot growth.

Easy Mixing:

Disclaimer: NanoPro should be used with caution with PGR applications which may damage crops if delivered in excess. Aqua-Yield is invested in research trials to identify optimal protocols and solutions related to the use of nanotechnology with PGRs.
