Date:07-13-2018
Alltech Crop Science, the agronomic division of Alltech, announced the addition of three new products to its Canadian line. Natures Basics®, Liqui-Plex® Cu and Liqui-Plex® Zn join the company’s other offerings, which include Crop-Set®, Soil-Set®, Grain-Set® and Agro-Mos®.
“We are excited to offer producers new micronutrient options that are formulated and differentiated with Alltech technology,” said Jeff Crampton, Alltech Crop Science Canadian sales manager, noting that the micronutrient fertilizers are based on Alltech’s expertise in amino acid and fermentation technology.
“Our Liqui-Plex® line has the added benefit of being able to be applied with both dry and liquid fertilizers,” continued Crampton, explaining that the versatility of the products can improve growers’ existing management practices.
“This addition complements our current product portfolio and provides more solutions for farmers facing nutrient deficiencies,” said Dr. Steven Borst, Alltech Crop Science general manager.
Borst also noted that providing the right nutrients at the right time can help plants deal more efficiently with environmental and other stressors, as well as improve plant health.
“Nutrient deficiency can affect the plant at various stages of growth, from seed through fruit set and beyond, lowering yield and marketability,” said Borst. “With the expansion of our North American portfolio, growers have increased options for responding to their crop’s needs.”
