Defoliants Based on Mgso4 and Chlorides
Year: 2025
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: This article focuses on the synthesis, properties, and applications of defoliants based on magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) and chlorides. Defoliants play a critical role in agricultural practices, especially in crops like cotton, by facilitating leaf drop and improving harvesting efficiency. The study reviews the chemical mechanisms by which MgSO4 and chloride compounds induce defoliation, highlighting their effects on plant physiology, including leaf senescence and abscission processes. Furthermore, the article examines various formulations of these defoliants and their practical application methods in the field. Special attention is given to the environmental impact and safety considerations associated with the use of magnesium sulfate and chloride-based defoliants.
