Abstract

Activity promoting additives for rest-breaking agents are disclosed. Further, restbreaking compositions comprising these additives and a rest-breaking agent are also disclosed. Finally, a process for breaking the rest of bushes, shrubs, vines, nuts, berries and non-deciduous fruit trees is disclosed. The activity promoting additives enhance the activity of rest-breaking agents thereby leading to improvements in the yields and quality of fruit, nuts and berries in regions which have mild winter weather conditions.
