As we are increasingly experiencing, with this season’s unpredictable weather patterns crops are under constant pressure from environmental stresses like heat and drought, even if they are irrigated. For example, Tuber Initiation is inhibited above 25°C and photosynthesis is significantly affected as temperatures rise beyond about 23°C and can halt tuber bulking and lead to premature senescence. Night temperatures >20°C are particularly detrimental due to limited recovery and carbohydrate loss.
To mitigate these effects and to keep your crops healthy and productive, a solution that assists in all unpredictable seasons is needed. That’s where BioBoost comes in.
BioBoost is a premium biostimulant designed and tested to enhance plant growth, increase vigour and fortify crops against environmental stress. Whether it’s extreme temperatures or prolonged dry conditions, BioBoost helps your plants stay strong and perform better.
Why BioBoost?
BioBoost reduces the production of “shock” proteins and also induces partial stomatal closure under heat stress to retain water. It also activates an antioxidant defence mechanism, which helps prevent damage to the crop’s photosynthesis functions.
In summary, BioBoost is effective in acclimatising plants to incoming stress, promoting an increased Water Use Efficiency (WUE) and dehydration tolerance.
The BioBoost formulation can be used throughout the growing cycle, supporting early rooting when used post germination and driving greater shoot and leaf development in more mature crops, increasing the plant’s photosynthetic area for higher productivity.
By promoting stronger, more resilient plants, BioBoost also helps crops to resist the ingress and progression of disease naturally, acting as an important tool in your crop management strategy. Crops treated with BioBoost consistently show increased carbohydrate production and higher sugar content, key indicators of plant health and yield potential.
BioBoost offers real, measurable benefits:
- Enhanced tolerance to heat, cold and drought
- More vigorous plants with effective leaf and shoot growth
- Improved plant health and sugar content (BRIX levels)
Don’t let stress limit your yields. Add BioBoost to your growing programme and give your crops the edge they need to thrive in challenging conditions.
