Valent ProTone Plant Growth Regulator receives OMRI listing

Date:12-15-2010

Valent U.S.A. Corporation announced that ProTone Plant Growth Regulator is now listed by the Organic Materials Review Institute (OMRI) for use in organic certified production or food processing and handling.

This listing indicates that ProTone complies with the OMRI Policy and Standards Manual, which is based on requirements of the USDA National Organic Program Rule.

ProTone works by stimulating the production of pigments that give berries their red color without negative impacts on berry quality. It can be used from veraison until late in the season and is exempt from tolerance with a zero-day pre-harvest interval, increasing flexibility for red table grape growers.
