2-(3,4-Dichlorophenoxy)ethyl diethylamine, commonly known as yield-increasing amine (DCPTA), was first discovered by American chemical researchers in 1977. It is a high-performance plant growth regulator that has shown significant yield-increasing effects on many agricultural crops and can improve fertilizer utilization and increase crop stress resistance.
