reprise de végétation

Hi Eden, Thanks for your reply. The document does not actually specify where it should be used - just mentions that it can be used to treat cereal crops. So, perhaps 'striking' is not the correct term.

IATE defines reprise as striking, cloning or rooting: a technique for vegetatively (asexually) propagating plants in which a piece of the source plant containing at least one stem cell is placed in a suitable medium such as moist soil, potting mix, coir or rock wool
I suppose it means growing a new plant from a cutting, which would probably be done indoors/in a greenhouse.
Does your doc specify where the product is used (outdoors or indoors?)

Thanks for the answers so far. My first thought was 'regrowth', however I'm not sure that is the term required here. GDT gives the following definition for 'reprise':

Domaine(s) :
- agriculture
horticulture
français
anglais

reprise n. f.
striking


Définition :
Développement normal d'un plant après repiquage.

The plant protection product described in my text is used on cereals, by the way. Sheila
