In a recent NUTRI-CHECK NET webinar, ADAS crop physiologists Dr Sarah Kendall and Dr Tamara Fitters shared how grain analysis and post-harvest reviews can play a pivotal role in refining nutrient strategies for future seasons. Many farmers are already diligent about planning their crop nutrition at the beginning of the season, but few revisit and adjust those plans as the season ...
While this allowed growers to keep up to date on field operations, it limited tillering and nutrient uptake. Our office at ADAS Rosemaund, near Hereford, recorded only 8mm rainfall in March, compared to 141mm in 2024 – as a result, crops started to show signs of drought stress in May, particularly those on light land. ...
Key Benefits of Seaweed Biostimulants: Enhanced Root Development: Deep, strong roots improve water and nutrient uptake, vital for healthy crop growth. Improved Abiotic Stress Tolerance: Crops become more resilient to drought, salinity, and extreme temperatures. Better Nutrient Absorption: Biostimulants increase the efficiency of ...
Does going to the extreme in fertilizer application overcome yield limitations? When it comes to plant development and yield, imbalance is more likely to threaten soil health, production and your pocketbook. Instead, achieving nutrient balance is crucial to crop success. With that in mind, we reflect on the often-perceived conflicting theories – Liebig’s Law of Minimum and ...
We also allow animals, plants, fruit, crops and vegetables to grow better since there is no resistance to nutrient uptake when water carries those nutrients into the body of life. ...
Microbe Life Hydroponics, a leading provider of advanced plant nutrient and microbial solutions, is excited to announce the release of TERPS PLUS, a new fertilizer enhancer specially formulated to increase cannabinoid output and terpene production in cannabis and hemp plants. TERPS PLUS is a cannabis-proven suite of technologies, which was developed for hydroponics over 4 years, ...
They directly target roots of major production crops and prevent water and nutrient uptake resulting in reduced crop performance. Nematodes cause 7–15% yield losses to agricultural crops; an estimated $157 billion dollars worldwide. ...
The plant biostimulant may be used either by itself or in combination with other substances or microbes for this purpose. 2019 USDA Report Alternative Definition 2: A plant biostimulant is a substance(s), microorganism(s), or mixtures thereof, that, when applied to seeds, plants, the rhizosphere, soil or other growth media, act to support a plant’s natural nutrition processes ...
Generate is a natural product that utilizes patented Microbial Catalyst® technology to liberate nutrients in the soil for greater uptake, healthier crops and improved soil and plant health in a wide range of crops. ...

Embracing Stewardship To reaffirm the overarching goal of helping farmers to improve nutrient use efficiency and effectiveness to optimize plant nutrient uptake and minimize nutrient losses to the environment, IFA members embraced a series of industry nutrient stewardship commitments, including supporting ...
“This resolution rightly points to the importance of plant nutrition for global food security,” indicated IFA Director General, Charlotte Hebebrand, “but of course we must continue and further strengthen our efforts to improve nutrient uptake by crops and minimize nutrient losses. This requires improved knowledge transfer to ...
The development and use of biological products that improve the nutrient uptake efficiency will represent an alternative to the prohibited active substances and will optimize the costs of production. ...
Once again, Iden Biotechnology will attend the event representend on this occasion by Pedro Molina, Chief Scientific Officer of IDEN that will participate as a speaker, where he will explain the key considerations supporting biostimulant efficacy claims, plant physiology response to biostimulants, and evaluation of the effect of biostimulants on nutrient uptake ...
Humic substances facilitate the uptake and movement of nutrients within the plants, leading to the optimisation of photosynthesis and plants better are using the fertilizer. ...

The global fertilizer industry provided in 2016 almost 190 million tons of nutrients to crops, and with global food demand increasing in line with population growth, it is clear that fertilizers will play an even larger role in global food security in the decades ahead. ...
Soil legacy The soil legacies of plants are two-fold. On the one hand, nutrients released from plant residues through decomposition influence soil fertility. ...
The activity of interacting soil organisms, such as fungi and bacteria promotes fertile soil that as a habitat is characterised by sufficient water, space, air, and nutrients. The origin of healthy soil It takes several centuries for the transformation of bare rock into fertile soil through the colonisation of bare rock by lichens and the subsequent development of grassland and ...
The disease causes damage to the roots of the plant, which inhibits water and nutrient up take that consequently slows growth. “Take-all can reduce second wheat yields by up to 50%, with direct yield losses of 0.5 to 4 tonnes/ha, and may also reduce the quality of the grain produced. ...
Optimising nutrition during this important early phase encourages more even, healthy leaf growth and more productive photosynthesis when the sun shines. With the higher nutrient demand of sugar beet for NPK, Magnesium and essential micronutrients such as Boron, Molybdenum and Zinc, Beet Raiser has been formulated to target these needs. ...
We will be launching a new phosphite-based nutrient for sugar beet and revealing the latest PK MAXX+ potato field trial results. ...
