Chipro ChiProPlant - Chitosan-Based Plant Elicitor for Sustainable Crop Protection & Growth Enhancement
ChiProPlant® is a chitosan-based natural product that supports plant resistance against pathogenic fungi and bacteria. It promotes healthy soil life, improves vitality and yield of plants and supports plant growth through its strong elicitor effect. The compound is derived from crab shells and represents environmentally-friendly plant care by helping to reduce chemical pest management. ChiProPlant® increases yield, germination rate, growth and sturdiness of treated plants and has positive effects on symbiotic mycorrhiza.
Furthermore, it has proven effective in supporting plants against abiotic stress factors such as extreme weather conditions (drought, for example). ChiProPlant® is water-soluble and can be applied with normal spraying equipment. It is suitable for all plants, soils and seeds, whether outside or in green houses. The compound`s strong prophylactic effect against infestations and enhanced robustness and growth of your healthy plant can be seen in the yield and/or beauty of your plants.

Chitosan Hydrochloride derived from chitosan:
A natural compound found in the shells of crustaceans, this innovative plant elicitor harnesses the wisdom of nature to boost plant defenses and enhance growth. By activating the plant`s natural defense mechanisms, ChiProPlant® strengthens resilience against pests, diseases, and environmental stressors, promoting healthier, more vibrant growth.
Due to its antibacterial and antifugal properties, chitosan hydrochloride is successfully used in plant protection, as an elicitor, growth promoter, enhancer of secondary metabolites production, and in soil correction and restoration. ChiProPlant® is an all-natural, organic compound and is made from left over or unused food industry crab shells and stands for environmentally friendly plant care. Not only does it help to reduce chemical pest and disease management applications, but it is also an effective defense mechanism elicitor in plants, enhancing the plant’s health, appearance and resistance against phytopathogens. ChiProPlant® is beneficial for the growth of mycorrhiza, improves the rhizosphere, and supports growth of other beneficial microorganisms in the soil. Application is versatile: as a seed coating or dip, directly onto the soil, or by foliar spraying.
A better nutrient supply for your plants with less fertilizer needed.
ChiProPlant® potentiates the plant’s defense mechanisms against bacterial and fungal infestation. The application of the formulation increases root growth, boosts resistance against stress factors and improves germination and early plant development.
- Expression of chitinases and chitosanases leads to destruction of the fungal cell wall
- Synthesis of phytoalexins with antibiotic properties
- Production of toxic hydrogen peroxide
- Lignification of cells walls of the plant stregthens the physical barrier
- Changes in the ultrastucture of roots and leaves prevent the intrusion of some types of fungi
- ENHANCED GROWTH
The positive influences on plant’s health and growth have a yield increasing effect. Read more about the mode of action.
