BIOZ® — New Biostimulants to Help Improve Fertilizer Efficiency in Canada

As Canadian growers and retailers place greater focus on nutrient efficiency and maximizing performance from every unit of fertilizer applied, ICL is expanding its portfolio with the launch of BIOZ® ActiSpark and BIOZ® SureFire in Canada.

These solutions are designed to improve nutrient availability and utilization, enhance crop performance, and help crops better withstand abiotic stress, providing practical tools to maximize returns on fertility investments.

• BIOZ® ActiSpark (0-0-0.5) microbial input is designed to enhance soil biology by fostering a productive microbial community, leading to improved nutrient uptake and more effective fertilizer use.

• BIOZ® SureFire (0.5-0-0.5) amino acid input is designed to enhance photosynthesis, support key metabolic processes, and help mitigate abiotic stress to maintain crop performance under challenging conditions.

Build from Below. Support from Above.

Healthy Soil Microbes Drive Nutrient Efficiency

A healthy soil microbiome can contribute to more efficient nutrient use and consistent crop growth by supporting:

• More efficient use of applied nutrients, even under stress
• Improved consistency of crop performance and resilience
• Support for yield potential without added application passes

Product Highlights: BIOZ® ActiSpark & BIOZ® SureFire

BIOZ® ActiSpark is a liquid, multi-strain microbial solution for fertigation that contains both anaerobic and aerobic microbes, supporting nutrient bioavailability in the root zone.

• Active Ingredients: The multi-strain microbial blend enhances the bioavailability of key nutrients—including nitrogen—helping crops access more of what’s already in the soil and applied through fertility programs.
• Application: Designed for fertigation and in-furrow applications.

BIOZ® SureFire is fermented solution that supports plant photosynthesis and metabolism and helps crops maintain performance under stress.

• Active Ingredients: With carbon, nitrogen, and readily available amino acids derived from molasses and shrimp protein hydrolysate, it fuels key physiological processes, improves photosynthetic activity.
• Application: Designed to be foliar applied to foliage throughout the growing season; can be soil applied through fertigation.

Operational Fit: Both products are highly compatible with most crop protection inputs (jar test recommended), helping improve nutrient efficiency and soil biology without additional application costs or operational complexity.

The BIOZ Portfolio: Maximize the Value of Fertility Programs

The BIOZ® portfolio brings together microbial innovation and bioavailable nutrition, to help growers and retailers maximize the value of their fertility programs and improve in-season nutrient efficiency while building a stronger foundation for long-term productivity.

The launch of BIOZ® ActiSpark and BIOZ® SureFire reflects ICL’s continued focus on practical, performance-driven solutions that help growers and retailers protect margins and produce more with less.
