Envita is a highly effective nitrogen-fixing solution leading global crop protection sector
Azotic Technologies Limited has announced that the Fertilizer and Pesticide Authority of the Philippines has approved the registration of Envita®, a systemic nitrogen-fixing bacteria, for use on rice.
Envita is a unique nitrogen-fixing microbe based on the microbe Gd (Gluconocetobacter diazotrophicus), that works by creating a symbiotic relationship with plant roots, stems, and leaves, fixing nitrogen inside plant cells, thereby making Envita one of the most efficient N-fixing microbes available for use in agricultural applications. Envita is distributed through Texicon Agri Ventures Corp, the leading distributor of high-quality products serving the agricultural sector in the Philippines.
Tom Chavez, VP of Commercial for Azotic® points out that “Rice is an important crop in the Philippines, which ranks among the top ten producers in the world with the fifth highest per capita consumption. Envita allows growers to boost production significantly with an effective product safe for the environment and the population. During the last two years, Azotic has been busy confirming results (N-fixation) of Envita across many crops.”
Envita is a highly effective nitrogen-fixing solution that has delivered exceptional crop results worldwide. Azotic has established scientifically proven statistical results in various crops that ensure significant benefits to growers. The company is working to obtain certification for additional crops produced in the Philippines, including corn and cereals, cabbage and other vegetables, fruits including mangos and bananas, potatoes and tomatoes, and sugar cane.
Carl Harvey Abugan, Business Unit Lead, Texicon adds, “We are proud to introduce Envita to growers in the Philippines. Field test results for Envita in rice have proven exceptional with yield increases that have far surpassed expectations. We are confident that this product will be a game-changer for growers.”
