Overcoming Spring Challenges with BEOZ Technology in Greece

While Greece is often imagined as a hot and sunny country, cold spring temperatures can still impact efficient crop cultivation. ICL’s Biostimulants Agronomy Specialist, Dr. Eduardo Cancellier, recently visited fields near Thessaloniki to observe how two products from ICL’s BEOZ range are aiding local farmers in overcoming early spring weather conditions.

Despite cold spring temperatures, the growers in the region try hard to help their crops develop strong root systems as early in the season as possible. Well-developed roots are essential for efficient nutrient uptake, ensuring crops get a better start to the season and increasing the potential for higher yields.

Innovative Solutions with BEOZ Technology

To achieve this goal, farmers have decided to apply two biostimulant products from ICL’s BEOZ range: BEOZ Adamite and BEOZ Sard. These products are part of ICL’s innovative biostimulant range designed to boost crop growth and resilience. They contain Metabolite Technology®,which helps regulate crop physiology and induces new physiological responses tailored to each location. This technology effectively changes how plants grow, making them more resilient and productive.

As we has witnessed, both products have proven particularly effective in Greek fields. Despite the cold spring conditions, farmers have observed new white roots developing within just 10 days of application, indicating a new hormonal regulation of the plants. This rapid root development is crucial for increasing yield potential early in the growing season. Strong root systems from the beginning are essential for farmers striving to achieve great yields in challenging conditions.

Real-World Effectiveness of BEOZ Technology

ICL’s observations in Thessaloniki highlight the effectiveness of BEOZ technology in real-world agricultural settings. By promoting robust root systems early, BEOZ products help farmers achieve higher yields and better crop resilience, ensuring sustainable and productive farming practices even in adverse conditions.
