Key Takeaways
- Acadian Plant Health launches its Abiotic Stress Management (ASM) portfolio, designed to enhance plant growth and stress tolerance.
- ASM provides solutions for managing extreme weather impacts, a major contributor to global crop losses.
- The portfolio incorporates scientifically formulated biostimulant technologies to improve crop resilience.
- Rigorous field trials confirm ASM’s effectiveness in reducing abiotic stress-related yield loss.
Addressing Abiotic Stress in Agriculture
Acadian Plant Health has unveiled its Abiotic Stress Management (ASM) portfolio, a new development aimed at improving plant resilience to environmental stressors. The portfolio is designed to assist farmers in mitigating the effects of extreme weather, drought, and flooding, which contribute significantly to global crop losses.
According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, approximately 90% of crop losses are linked to extreme weather conditions, with annual farmer income reduced by an estimated $170 billion. The ASM portfolio provides biostimulant technologies specifically formulated to counter these challenges, offering farmers a potential solution for enhancing crop survival and yield stability.
“Abiotic stress has often been underestimated in its impact, but our Abiotic Stress Management portfolio is changing that,” said Nelson Gibson, President of Acadian Plant Health. “With its unmatched reliability and efficacy, this portfolio sets a new benchmark in biostimulants.”
How Acadian Plant Health ASM Works
The ASM portfolio is developed using biological compounds designed to target and mitigate key crop stressors. It integrates scientific advancements in plant physiology and stress response to support farmers in maintaining productivity under variable climate conditions.
- Biostimulant Formulation – ASM combines multiple active compounds aimed at improving plant growth, root development, and stress tolerance.
- Field-Proven Technology – Extensive field trials confirm the portfolio’s ability to reduce the negative impact of drought, extreme temperatures, and other environmental factors.
- Ease of Integration – ASM is designed to be seamlessly incorporated into existing crop management programs, offering a practical and scalable solution for growers.
“The future of farming depends on how effectively we can equip farmers to manage abiotic stress,” Gibson added. “This will strengthen the resilience of our food system and empower farmers to achieve greater economic well-being now and in the years to come.”
