Exclusive to cold waters of the North Atlantic, the alga navy Ascophyllum nodosum is the technology for bioactivators of Acadian Plant Health (APH) plants available to agriculture Brazilian. Harvesting the algae manually allows it to regenerates and avoids impact on the species, reinforcing the concept of sustainability.

"The technological process developed by Acadian Plant Health ensures that these bioactive compounds are extracted into your purest and most active state. Such an extraction process not only releases bioactive compounds but also produces new compounds, making the products unique APH in the world. A Ascophyllum nodosum It's an ingredient active for biosolutions and has helped producers to enhance the quality of crops and generating resilience in the face of stress that affect the success of agriculture throughout the year", explains Gustavo Gonella, marketing director at APH in South America.

Cultures in Brazil

In Brazil, the company's focus is to provide the best seaweed extract solutions Ascophyllum nodosum To the business partners. This technology has been distributed in the country by Koppert particularly for large crops such as soybeans, corn, cotton and cane.

Additionally, APH seaweed extract also has helped fruit producers improve the performance of their plantations. "The bioactivator based on Ascophyllum nodosum is also indicated for fruit crops. Studies prove the best performance of grapes, for example. Seaweed makes the production process and better and more profitable harvest for customers who use the solution, a as they contribute to the production of superior quality to offer the market", explains Gonella.

This seaweed is also important for the development of coffee cultivation. Producers from different countries, including Brazil, have used the extract of Ascophyllum nodosum to improve the conditions of planting, harvesting and delivery of products. "We have coffee farmers in several countries who use our extract and everyone is very satisfied with the results in terms of productivity and quality. The planting coffee production has complex management and losing a harvest causes enormous losses. Per To do this, use our extract Ascophyllum puts the producers a step forward, as they have at their disposal not only a performance improver, performance. They also protect your crops from phytosanitary problems of diverse origins", concludes Gustavo.

From where comes Ascophyllum nodosum

A Ascophyllum nodosum is common in intertidal zones, under inhospitable conditions: in some periods, it is submerged in the sea; in others, exposed to dehydration at low tide. In this way, you face very well extreme temperatures. Such characteristics made the plant develop survival mechanisms through bioactive compounds. O Acadian Plant Health's technological process ensures that these compounds bioactives are extracted in their purest and most active states. These features are "transferred" to crops, making them more resistant to abiotic stress, which is essential for agricultural traits Brazilians.

"Our products increase the properties physical, chemical and biological properties of the soil, promote root activity, improve water and nutrient absorption, as well as plant vigor, in addition increase tolerance to temperature stress and water stress and saline, in addition to productivity", explains Gonella.

All these qualities of seaweed Ascophyllum nodosum have scientific proof. There are more than 40 years of studies on the growth and ecology of Ascophyllum nodosum feats by a dedicated scientific team. During this period, more than six thousand studies have been published in international research institutions and renowned, with highly positive results. "Farmers are looking for solutions and companies that focus on sustainability and practices responsible, with productive results. All sustainable solutions from Acadian Plant Health present stable, consistent and versatile formulations, designed to support and complement the adoption of innovations for production sustainable agriculture. APH seaweed is the foundation of these benefits and studies guarantee us an environmentally correct business model that aligns with the United Nations (UN) agriculture goals", adds Gonella.
