Synergistic agricultural formula comprising diacyl or diaryl urea and at least one mixture of nutrients
A synergistic agricultural formula including at least one diacyl or diaryl urea, such as a N,N′-diformylurea, and at least one mixture of nutrients, such as a mixture of micronutrients and/or macronutrients. This synergistic agricultural formula gives those skilled in the art the ability to regulate important phenotypical parameters that lead to a variety of important agronomic and horticulture traits which improve crop yield parameters leading beyond that of its individual components.
