- New dry formulation nitrogen-fixing biological product
- Ability to source additional nitrogen all season long
- Easy to handle with a low use rate and two-year shelf life
Syngenta Canada is introducing Envita® Dry, an innovative nitrogen-fixing biological product helping farmers give their crops access to the nitrogen they need to boost their yields – all in a convenient dry formulation.
Envita Dry features the bacteria Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus (Gd) – a naturally occurring food-grade bacteria that enables nitrogen fixation in a wide variety of crops. The dry formulation offers a two-year shelf life and an ultra-low use rate thanks to a high concentration of Gd.
“Envita Dry gives plants the ability to source additional nitrogen from the atmosphere and deliver it to the right place and at the right time when the plant needs it,” says Gustavo G Roelants, Biologicals Marketing Lead for Syngenta Canada. “Soil-available nitrogen doesn’t necessarily equal plant-accessible nitrogen, and that’s where Envita Dry can add value by enabling nitrogen fixation to the crop for an additional supply of this essential nutrient. Envita Dry supports the nutrient use efficiency of the crop by fixing nitrogen inside cells throughout the plant’s leaves for a season-long nutrient supply.”
Roelants recommends growers leverage Envita Dry to supplement existing fertilizer programs. Envita Dry is easy to store, transport, and use with a broad application window. Envita Dry goes easily into suspension and no pre-mixing is required when added to tank water.
Each 200-gram pouch treats 40 acres, making it easy to scale up to match the size of field being treated.
“Envita Dry has been tested in Canada for Canadian farmers, offering them the opportunity to realize a yield advantage across a wide variety of crops,” says Roelants, noting the product’s effectiveness at improving yield in a variety of crops. Envita Dry is registered for use in potatoes, canola, cereals, corn, pulses, soybeans and forage crops, and comes with a Performance Guarantee from the manufacturer*.
Envita Dry is best applied solo with a non-ionic surfactant and can be added to an existing pass with compatible products at fungicide and herbicide timing. Envita Dry should only be mixed with a tested product that has been shown to be compatible. Some tank-mix partners may have an adverse effect on Gd, the active ingredient in Envita Dry.
