We have compiled some of the most frequently asked questions that we have received about AgraPro™ Biostimulant & Soil Amendment. If you have any questions- you can reach out to us at service@natureswonder.com!
>> HOW DOES AGRAPRO™ WORK?
AgraPro™ works in 3 ways:
- AgraPro™ enhances the cationic exchange capacity, allowing soil to hold onto nutrients and water for longer periods of time, improving fertilizer efficiency.
- AgraPro™ is a food source for microbes in the soil, allowing them to transform more nutrients into crop available forms, which are necessary for crop uptake.
- Lastly, it increases the crop’s metabolism to allow it to take in nutrients faster and store carbohydrates for improved stress tolerance.
>> WHAT DOES AGRAPRO™ DO FOR SOIL?
AgraPro™ enhances soil health through flocculation, allowing for better water and root penetration. Also, it improves the biological activity within the soil by providing nutrients and food necessary for beneficial microbes to grow in population and activity. Lastly, it allows the soil to hold onto nutrients and water, which enhances a crop's durability. Additionally, this reduces the amount of fertilizer used.
>> WHAT DOES AGRAPRO™ DO FOR CROPS?
AgraPro™ enhances the crop’s ability to perform to its maximum genetic potential. It improves chlorophyll production and photosynthetic activity in crops for increased respiration. And third, it allows the crop to increase its carbohydrate reserves and hormone levels for improved stress tolerance.
>> WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF AGRAPRO™?
There are numerous benefits of using AgraPro™. It is environmentally friendly and OMRI (Organic Materials Review Institute) listed in the US as organic and safe for use on anything that grows. University testing and real world applications prove that AgraPro™ provides a valuable return on investment by:
- Enhancing Fertilizer & Water Efficiency
- Increasing Crop Turgidity
- Enhancing Soil Nutrient Retention & Making Nutrients more available to the crop
- Dramatically Reduces Potential of Root Loss under stressful conditions
>> WILL AGRAPRO™ EFFECT GROWTH REGULATOR PROGRAMS?
AgraPro™ does not harm crops under growth regulation and will not interfere with any growth regulator programs being used in conjunction with labeled rates. It may speed up the intake of chemicals, providing a faster response.
>> HOW WILL AGRAPRO™ AFFECT PESTICIDES THAT I ALREADY USE?
AgraPro™ enhances the uptake of most pesticides being used under labeled rates, allowing for increased efficiency and a faster response of the chemicals being used.
>> DOES AGRGAPRO™ WORK BETTER ON SILTY LOAMY SOIL THAN SANDY SOIL?
No, both soil types will experience benefits. Sandy soil conditions see the benefits of adding AgraPro™ to build the microbial population over time; if you choose to alternate AgraPro™ between top dressing applications they will begin to add organic matter into sand, creating healthier, less sterile soil conditions.
>> DOES AGRAPRO™ HAVE IRON IN IT? IF SO, HOW MUCH?
AgraPro™ is not fortified with Iron. Through its unique molecular structure, AgraPro™ helps N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Cu, Fe, & Zn in the soil become more soluble and available for crop absorption.
>> HOW CAN I MIX AGRAPRO™ WITH IRON OR OTHER MICRONUTRIENTS?
Typically, AgraPro™ is safe to mix with micronutrient packages which contain small percentages of iron. However, some micronutrient packages with high rates of iron might experience clumping when mixed with AgraPro™. A simple jar test can be utilized to check for chemical compatibility.
