Nephrite

Nephrite is designed to stimulate and support biological nitrogen fixation throughout the crop cycle, improving fixation efficiency to deliver more energy for the plants. By increasing the rate that nitrogen is transformed into proteins, crops generate heavier grains boosting productivity in the field.

Nephrite has six modes of action:

• Nephrite stimulates the synthesis of auxins in the aerial part of the plants, which are then sent to the root system
• In the root system, auxins stimulate the synthesis of cytokinins
• Increases the efficiency of biological nitrogen fixation by reducing energy expenditure
• Between 30 and 60% of the energy supplied to nitrogenase can be lost as H₂
• Nephrite activates the hydrogenase enzyme, which will recycle the hydrogen gas releasing energy for the process
• Savings of 11% to 25% of carbon, which can now be used by the plant to grow leaves, pods, and grains.

Nephrite reduces ethylene biosynthesis, keeping the nodules alive longer preventing their premature death.

In addition to the hormonal promoters, Nephrite provides essential nutrients for the biological fixation process, ensuring its operation until the end of the cycle.
