T~e invention relates to a plant growth regulating and crop-
ripening accelerating composition containing 0.2 to 95% by mass of 3-
isononyloxypropyl-ammonium methyl phosphonate and a solid or liquid filler
or carrier and optionally ot~er additives, preferably a surfactant and/or
an adhesion promoting agent in an amount supplementing up to 100% by mass.
The preparation of 3-isononyloxypropyl-ammonium methyl phosphonate
as well as its use as the active ingredient of a fungicide composition are
reported in the ~ungarian patent specification No. 18~,319; however, the
p:Lant growth regu:lating effect of the above-mentioned active agent is not
:L0 described Ln this speciflcation.
It has been found that 3-isononyloxypro~yl-ammonium methyl
phosphonate, when applied ln an appropr:Late dose, can be used for regulatLng the
root development, growth, the development of the Eoliage surface as well as
the crop-bLndlng, flower-binding and crop-ripening oE Eield-cultivated plants,
e.g. wheat, maLze, sugar beet, sunElower as wel:L as oE hortLcultural plants,
e.g. papr:Lka, tomato, radLs'h, potato, Eurthermore of Eruit-trses, e.g. apple
and oE b~rry plants such Is currlnt nncl vLne.

- 2 - 23305-1030
used in a 1 to 2000 ppm concentration oE -the active ingredient.
The dose used depends on the plant to be treatecd, on -the aîm of
the treatment, t~e phenologic phase of the plant, on the form of
t~e composition.
According].y, the invention also relates to a treating
process for regulating the plant growth and for the promo-tion of
the flower- and crop-binding ancl crop-ripening, which comprises
treating the seeds, pl.ant initiatives and fl.owers with an amoun-t
o~ 1 to 2000 ppm of the act:ive ingredi.ent, or treating the soil of
the plaints with an amount oE 0.001 to 5.0 g/m2 of -the active
ingredient before sowing, or with an amount of 1 to 2000 ppm of
the active ingred;ent by spri.nkling after planting or after
layering by using a composition containing 3-isononyloxypropyl-
ammonium methyl phosphonate as active ingred:ient in an amount of
0.2 to 95% 'by ma~s and a sol;.d or liquid :Eiller or carrier and
optionally other add.itives, pre:Eerably a surfactant and/or an
adhesion promoting agen-t i.n an amounl: supplement-ing up to 100~ by

It is obvious -from -the results, that the development of
the plants was significantly promoted by all the three actlve
substances in comparison -to the untreated controls.
The plant height/green weight ratio, however, refers to
a more preferred effect of BF-51 as compared to that of the
reference subs-tances. Thus, i-t turns out that the habit of the
mai.ze was not unadvantageously influenced by BF-51, whi.le dispro-
portion~tely lanky plants wlth an unadvantageous habit developed
under the effect of g;.bberellic acid. It is shown by the re~ults
of the chlorophy:Ll determinations that the effect of BF-Sl was the
most preferable on -the amount of chlorophyll formed both in one g
of the green plant as well as in the whole green plant,
respect.ively.
