Verdesian announces two of its products have received industry certifications.
One of the newer designations for the crop input industry, last year The Fertilizer Institute announced its Certified Biostimulant label to confirm how products meet guidelines for efficacy, composition and safe use. Only a handful of products have received the certification, and the latest is Verdesian Primary ALPHA.
Primary ALPHA is a phosphite-free nitrogen management biostimulant with a proprietary blend of nitrogen, potassium, sulfur, boron, manganese and zinc co-developed with Los Alamos National Laboratory and UC Riverside. It’s designed for us in cereals, pulses, vegetables, grapes and tree nuts as a foliar or soil-applied product.
“This certification is a powerful endorsement of the science behind Primacy ALPHA,” said Amber Harrison, Product Marketing Manager at Verdesian Life Sciences, in the news announcement. “It reflects our commitment to proven, sustainable technologies that help crops thrive—especially under stress.”
Crop+ Organic received OMRI (Organic Materials Review Institute) certification. Crop+ Organic is a foliar biostimulant to plants tolerate abiotic stress such as drought, salinity, and extreme temperatures. Field trials have shown a 11% performance increase when Crop+ is used due to increased growth, enhanced nutrient uptake, and stronger root development.
“Organic growers need tools they can trust, not just for certification, but for performance in the field,” said Harrison, in the news announcement. “This certification is a major step forward in expanding Crop+ Organic’s reach and impact across organic systems.”
