A different approach to crop performance
More from biology.
A low product dose.
ChitoHumus brings humic substances and mushroom-derived compounds together in a concentrated liquid. The opportunity: explore how a small addition can support crop growth within your existing agronomic programme.
- 01Low concentrate volume. Foliar rates of 0.1–0.2 L/ha have been studied in Latvia.
- 02A biological starting point. Peat and cultivated mushroom biomass are the formulation’s source materials.
- 03Evidence you can inspect. Explore the crop, treatment and comparison behind each result.
