Agricultural startup Acuplanta, led by CEO Jin Jong-myeong, has collaborated with World Atech to introduce their bio-stimulant agricultural product “Chokypon” in South Korea. Designed to combat dry spells and high temperatures, “Chokypon” leverages acetic acid to boost plant resilience, maintaining crop yield and quality while conserving water.
During recent visits to cabbage and broccoli farms in Gangwon Province, northeastern South Korea, farmers reported significant benefits since adopting “Chokypon” last year. Cabbage growers reduced irrigation cycles using sprinklers, while broccoli farmers achieved more uniform growth, easing harvest operations.
Farmers expressed gratitude for the groundbreaking product, emphasizing its role in mitigating climate-related challenges. Acuplanta plans to expand collaboration with World Atech to promote wider adoption of “Chokypon” across South Korea, addressing agricultural sustainability and food security.
The success of “Chokypon” in South Korea underscores its potential as a bio-stimulant to enhance crop resilience and productivity amid climatic adversities. As global demand grows for sustainable agricultural solutions, innovations like “Chokypon” offer promising pathways towards resilient farming practices.
