What happens around the root zone can influence what happens above ground. This expert-led webinar explores non-microbial biostimulants, how different technologies work in the soil, and where they fit alongside crop nutrition programs.

Using soil chemistry insights and on-farm research, ICL agronomist Christi Falen and a panel of ICL experts will examine humic acids, liquid biochar extracts, molasses-based products, and seaweed—and discuss their roles in root development, nutrient cycling, and the soil microbiome.

We will explore:

• The connection between the root system and soil microbiome
• How different non-microbial biostimulants work
• On-farm research examining biostimulant responses and root development
• Best practices for integrating biostimulants with crop nutrition programs
• The agronomic value and potential ROI of non-microbial biostimulants
