The Gibberellin Family Explained: A Scientific Comparison of GA₃ and GA₄+₇
In the field of plant growth regulation, gibberellins (GAs) form a vast “family” of natural compounds — with more than 130 distinct gibberellins identified to date. Acting as the plant’s internal “growth commanders,” these substances coordinate essential physiological processes such as seed germination, stem elongation, flowering, and fruit development. Interestingly, the discovery of this family traces back to a puzzling rice disease that once troubled farmers, leading scien

Calcium Magnesium Nitrate: The Multi-Nutrient Fertilizer Powering Modern Efficient Agriculture
In the pursuit of efficient and high-quality agriculture, scientific fertilization is not only the core to improving crop yields but also the key to enhancing produce quality and protecting soil ecology. Calcium magnesium nitrate, a compound medium-element fertilizer with both “quick-acting” and “multi-functional” characteristics, is becoming increasingly popular as it provides three essential nutrients—nitrogen (N), calcium (Ca), and magnesium (Mg)—in one product. This advan

Potassium Sulfate and Potassium Chloride: Correlation Logic, Production Processes, and Type Differences
In the “nutrient supply system” of agricultural production, potash fertilizers play an irreplaceable role as “energy regulators,” directly influencing crop growth vigor, stress resistance, and final yield. Among the many potash fertilizer types, potassium chloride (KCl) and potassium sulfate (K₂SO₄) stand out as the two dominant forms. The two are closely related yet differ in their characteristics and application scenarios. This article explores their intrinsic connection, a
