mechanisms
Tradecorp’s Biostimulant range naturally increases the vigour and vitality of crops beyond the fertiliser effect of the product. This is achieved by supplying nutrients in Amino Acid, long chain sugar and / or natural growth stimulating or stress reducing forms such as anti-oxidants.
What are Biostimulants?
There is a lot of confusin in Australia, and globally about the word Biostimulant
In an effort to promote best practice, Tradecorp along with other reputable manafacturers, was one of the founding members of EBIC – the European Biostimulant Industry Council.
Plant biostimulants* when applied to crops or the soil stimulate natural processes to enhance:
- Nutrient Uptake
- Nutrient use Efficiency (NUE)
- Plant Tolerance to Abiotic Stress
- Crop Quality attributes
- Biostimulants have no direct action against pests
*as defined by EBIC
The Free Amino Acids in our Biostimulant range are in the biologically active and plant usable L-α Free Amino Acid form.
The long chain sugars and anti-oxidants are extracted using a unique cold gentle extraction process, from Ascophyllum nodosum, a cold water seaweed that only grows in the clean waters of the far north Atlantic Ocean.
