Natural-Based Solutions and Performance Products for Effective Weed Control, Insect Control and Plant Health

Fatty Acid Science & Technology (F.A.S.T.) Experts™ for Agriculture

Due to the unique nature in which fatty acids interact with the cuticle of the plant or weed, they allow other systemic compounds to enter and translocate more quickly and efficiently. This can be extremely important when looking to achieve enhanced weed control with products such as glyphosate. Additionally, this same concept applies to systemic insecticides and fungicides where the addition of the fatty acids aids the uptake and as a result, enhances the performance of the products. The key to this unique concept is the appropriate application rate. This mode of action is unique to fatty acids and results in real benefits to growers and end-users.

Applied to apples in Australia

Our EMERLIFE™ plant health products are a class of ultra-low rate, highly-active biostimulants designed to reduce the effects of plant abiotic stress. EMERLIFE biostimulants help plants continue to thrive under environmental stresses brought on by excessive heat, cold, drought, flooding, or salinity of the soil. These products are based on renewable dicarboxylic acids which act by mildly inhibiting one or more of the 3 specific redox enzymes that signal the plant’s stress-coping mechanisms to prepare for the onset of environmental stress.
