Attraxor^®

By regulating longitudinal turf growth, Attraxor^® helps lessen the frequency of mowing and clipping volumes.

It also limits the spread of annual meadow grass, Poa annua, by reducing seed-head production and physiological weakening. At the recommended dose rate, one application of Attraxor^® reduces the fresh weight of grass cuttings by up to 70% and lowers grass height by up to 30% for up to four weeks after application.

Why Attraxor^®?

Reduces shoot growth

Attraxor^® is a plant growth regulator for use on managed amenity turf. It reduces shoot growth which lessens the frequency of mowing and the volume of clippings created. At the recommended dose rate, one application of Attraxor^® will give a reduction in fresh weight of grass cuttings of up to 70% and a lowering in grass height of up to 25% for up to four weeks after application.

Produces consistent effect

Attraxor^® produces a consistent effect, so there is no need to adjust the application dose, regardless of cutting height or grass species. It is equally effective on all cool temperate grass species, such as Agrostis spp., Festuca spp., Lolium perenne, Holcus lanatus and Poa pratensis. A reduced dose of 0.5-0.65 kg/ha was shown to be sufficient for efficient Poa annua management.
