    Ethephon Plus®
 
Ethephon Plus® is a premium yield stimulant for rubber trees developed by Greenyield. It is prepared as a gel formulation for easy application on the groove of the tapping cut or on scraped bark below the cut.It breaks down by a process of hydrolysis within the bark tissues to release the active ingredient namely ethylene gas which in turn brings about increased latex flow from tapped cuts resulting in higher yield productivity when compared to non-stimulated trees.Ethylene is a known plant growth regulator naturally present in all plants.Details on concentration and frequency of application according to age of trees and panel in tapping are provided on the labels.
 
Ethephon Plus® has been widely accepted as a superior product in the natural rubber industry by both plantations & smallholdings and now used extensively in several natural rubber producing countries in South East Asia, Africa and Papua New Guinea.
