About Quantis
Quantis Biostimulant by Syngenta India is a foliar biostimulant containing organic carbon, amino acids, potassium, and calcium, used to enhance plant performance and reduce yield loss caused by abiotic stress. It effectively maintains photosynthetic activity and delays senescence in crops such as wheat, soybean, and cotton, helping plants cope with drought, heat, and other suboptimal environmental conditions. By supplying an organic carbon source, supporting osmotic adjustment, and providing amino acids for chlorophyll biosynthesis and pollen fertility, Quantis improves growth, development, and final yield. It is applied as a foliar spray timed to key physiological stages such as flowering, fruit-setting, and ripening in recommended crops.
Quantis Technical Composition
Organic Carbon, Potassium (K), Calcium (Ca), and Amino Acids
Mode of Action
-
Organic Carbon: Maintains osmotic adjustment and supplies a carbon source to the plant under stress.
-
Potassium (K): Maintains osmotic potential, improves water use efficiency, promotes protein production, promotes photosynthesis, and enhances assimilate translocation.
-
Calcium (Ca): Maintains cell integrity and membrane stability, is involved in the stress-signaling process, and aids sugar translocation.
-
Amino Acids: Provide protein building blocks, are involved in chlorophyll biosynthesis, and support pollination and pollen fertility.
Time of Application: Before or during crucial physiological phases (e.g. flowering, fruit-setting, ripening) and suboptimal environmental conditions (e.g. drought).

Quantis Expert Advice
"For best results, time Quantis application to key physiological stages of flowering, fruit-setting, or ripening or just ahead of expected drought or heat stress. Follow the crop-specific dosage and interval closely, since several crops (like tomato, cabbage, and onion) need repeated applications at fixed intervals rather than a single spray." – BigHaat Agronomy Expert
