Acadian Plant Health™

New thinking and investments are key to putting this planet on the road to sustainability. At Acadian, our technology is being used to transform agriculture from a performance-driven model to a regenerative model. Watch this quick video to see how regenerative agriculture is a positive step forward.

According to the United Nations, around 13.2 percent of food produced globally is lost between harvest and retail. Acadian technology can help prevent food loss by producing better quality fruit and vegetables that can, in turn, reduce food degradation. In fact, our data shows that we were able to reduce food degradation by approximately 10% by day 15. This could make up for the current 10% loss exporters are experiencing with delays to destination markets.

Farmers are facing increasing challenges keeping their crops healthy as drought conditions become more prevalent. The need for solutions has become more urgent. Acadian technology is showing great promise in helping crops withstand water stress. Find out how the addition of our biostimulants can alter the physiology of plants and strengthen them from within. See the positive results of a recent study with tomato plants as they experience water stress. Learn more here: https://bit.ly/4ephH5P #Drought #Biostimulants

James Maude, Acadian SVP, recently commented on the shift in the agricultural market from chemistry to biologicals. “The global agricultural market is shifting. As we look to the future, we see the biologicals industry poised for significant growth, driven by new developments and increased collaboration with multinational corporations. These partnerships are expected to bring more advanced biological products to market, integrating them into broader agricultural portfolios. The continued global emphasis on climate-smart and regenerative agriculture will also fuel demand for biologicals, particularly as pressure on synthetic chemistry intensifies, especially in regions like Europe and China. This trend is likely to ripple across other global markets, further solidifying the role of biologicals as essential tools for sustainable farming practices.” Learn more about Acadian technology: https://bit.ly/3zbGMSV #Biologicals #Biostimulants #Agriculture

This year, Northern Mexico suffered two climate events: severe drought followed by flooding. With increased abiotic stress, many crops suffered losses. Acadian technology supported stressed crops through this period of severe weather. Watch this video to see how Acadian products helped mitigate stress in a corn crop to allow for an easier harvest compared to non-treated corn on the same farm.

Want to know more about soil microbiomes and soil health? A new article in Global Ag Tech Initiative's soil health issue provides an excellent overview, with participation from our own Dr. Holly Little. Discover the role the microbiome plays in soil health, which can ultimately help us better understand how to protect yields and improve crop quality as we face increasing environmental stresses. Find out more about soil microbiomes and Acadian’s commitment to soil health. https://lnkd.in/gcvuKgyJ #SoilHealth

The effects of salt damage in plants can include decreased photosynthetic capabilities, leaf size and necrosis, and rooting. Acadian technology can help plants manage even in saline soils. Our technology is proven to help plants absorb less sodium and chloride and increase growth under saline conditions. This video demonstrates how lettuce treated with Acadian technology continues to grow despite poor soil conditions, in comparison to the control. Find out how our solutions allow stressed plants to better tolerate hostile conditions: https://bit.ly/3MrL3og #Biostimulants

The Soil Health Institute and Cargill recently conducted research to understand the economic benefits of adopting soil health practices. The results were very positive. Across 100 farms, soil health practices including no-till and cover crops increased net income for 85% of farmers growing corn and 88% growing soybeans. Farmers also reported additional benefits of their soil health management system, such as increased resilience to extreme weather and increased access to their fields. Read more about the impact of soil health on agricultural productivity and how Acadian technology can be integrated to produce great results: https://bit.ly/4dEMDPt Data obtained from the 100 Farms study by the Soil Health Institute: https://lnkd.in/gPT7Mv_R #SoilHealth #RegenerativeAgriculture

A plant’s overall health starts in its roots. When a plant is healthier, it can draw more carbon from the atmosphere and store it in the soil, benefitting both the plant and planet at the same time. James Maude, our Senior Vice President, sums it up well: "It all starts and ends with soil."
