ABSTRACT:
The productivity of plants is enhanced by enhancing one or more physiological responses of photosynthesizing plants by contacting the foliage of such plants during the early stages, i.e. about the first half, of the grand response period for the selected physiological response with a solution containing biuret in an amount and under conditions sufficient to introduce into the plant a non-phytotoxic amount of biuret sufficient to enhance the selected physiological response.
