Syngenta Quantis Biostimulant (Amino Acids & Nutrients)
The Ultimate "Insurance Policy" for Crops Against Heat, Drought, and Stress.
Syngenta Quantis is a specialized biostimulant designed to protect your crops when they need it most. Unlike standard fertilizers, Quantis works on the plant's internal metabolism. Derived from natural fermentation (Vinasse Metabolites), it provides essential amino acids, organic carbon, and potassium. It acts as a physiological stress mitigator, helping crops survive and thrive during high heat, low rainfall, or critical growth stages like flowering.
Best For: Farmers facing irregular monsoons, heatwaves, or those looking to maximize yield quality in Cotton, Soybean, Rice, and Wheat.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits

How It Works: Mode of Action
Quantis works via three proven physiological mechanisms to keep the plant healthy during stress:
[Image of plant cell osmosis process]- Osmoprotection (Water Balance): It supplies cells with Potassium and organic osmolytes. This helps plant cells hold onto water and stay firm (turgid) even when the soil is dry, preventing wilting.
- Antioxidant Defense: Heat and stress create toxic particles (ROS) that damage plant cells. Quantis provides antioxidants and amino acids that "scavenge" these toxins, protecting the cell walls from burning out.
- Photosynthetic Maintenance: By reducing heat stress, it ensures the plant continues to convert sunlight into food (sugar) instead of shutting down, leading to better grain and fruit filling.
Think of it as an electrolyte drink for your crops during a marathon.
Target Crops & Benefits
| Crop | Key Benefits & Issues Solved |
|---|---|
| Cotton | Reduces square drop and boll shedding caused by heat; increases boll retention. |
| Rice (Paddy) | Prevents pollen sterility during high heat; improves tillering and grain filling. |
| Soybean | Reduces flower abortion during monsoon breaks; increases pod count. |
| Wheat | Combats terminal heat stress in March/April; prevents grain shriveling. |
Dosage & Application Guide
The Golden Rule: Always follow the "Dose per Acre" for accurate results.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (ml / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (ml / Litre) | Stage |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cotton | 400 - 500 ml | 150 - 200 L | 2 - 2.5 ml | Square formation & Flowering |
| Soybean | 800 ml | 200 L | 4 ml | Flower initiation |
| Rice | 800 ml | 200 L | 4 ml | Panicle initiation |
| Wheat | 400 ml | 150 L | 2.5 ml | Flag Leaf Stage |
*PHI: Not applicable as this is a residue-free biostimulant.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: Best applied preventatively (before stress starts) or at critical physiological stages like Flowering and Fruiting.
- Mixing: Compatible with most insecticides and fungicides (e.g., Amistar, Simodis). Avoid mixing with highly alkaline products like Bordeaux mixture.
- Coverage: Use sufficient water volume to ensure the leaves are well-coated but not dripping excessively.
- Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is Quantis a fertilizer?
No, it is a biostimulant. While it contains nutrients like Potassium, its main job is to help the plant manage stress and improve metabolism, not just provide bulk food.
2. Can I use Quantis on vegetable crops?
Yes, it is beneficial for vegetables like Tomato, Chili, and Potato, especially during high-temperature periods to prevent flower drop.
3. Can I mix it with insecticides?
Yes, Quantis is compatible with most standard insecticides and fungicides, allowing you to spray for pests and stress management in one go.
4. What if it rains after spraying?
Quantis is rainfast within 1 hour of application. If it rains after that, re-spraying is usually not required.
5. Does it help in drought conditions?
Absolutely. It helps plant cells retain water and maintain turgor pressure, keeping the plant alive and functioning longer during dry spells.
