Corteva Agriscience recently registered the first product in its biologicals range - Utrisha™ N, a cutting-edge UNIQUE product.

Utrisha™ N is a biostimulant designed to enhance plant nutrition, based on the naturally occurring bacterium Methylobacter symbioticum. Utrisha™ N is recognized by the Organic Materials Review Institute (OMRI) and authorized for use in certified organic production, food processing, and handling.

How Utrisha N Works:

Utrisha™ N enables plant tissues to go beyond their role as consumers and become a constant source of nitrogen for plants, promoting nitrogen absorption from the air.

Methylobacter symbioticum penetrates the plant through the stomata on green tissues and rapidly colonizes the entire plant to convert nitrogen from the atmosphere (N2) into a form available to plants (NH4+)*. This allows Utrisha™ N to deliver nitrogen directly to the actively growing parts of plants, eliminating the risk of applying nitrogen at inappropriate stages and negative effects on the environment and plant phytotoxicity.

Methylobacter symbioticum is a bacterium that survives and multiplies by feeding on methanol, a by-product of normal plant vegetative growth. Thus, the nitrogen supply is linked to the plant's needs.

How to Use:

Utrisha™ N is applied in the morning when stomata are open, and the plant is healthy and actively growing, unaffected by environmental stress factors. The application rate is 333g/ha, up to 500g/ha, depending on the crop used, and the water chlorine content should not exceed 2ppm. Immediately after one hour of application, Utrisha™ N is absorbed into the plant, thus being protected from accidental washing in case of precipitation.

Advantages of Utrisha™ N:

• Utilizes atmospheric nitrogen in a natural way to generate ammonia, necessary for plant growth and development.
• Utrisha™ N operates on a self-regulating mechanism to avoid the risk of nutrient imbalances, losses, or plant phytotoxicity.
• Provides crop plants with nitrogen throughout their life cycle, without the need for re-entry into the crop for treatment repetition.
• Can supplement a significant amount of nitrogen, thus enabling plant growth even under difficult or impossible fertilization conditions.

Benefits of Using Utrisha™ N:

• Utrisha™ N provides a viable alternative source to enhance nitrogen use efficiency, favoring plant nitrogen supply even when nitrogen is limited or inconsistent.
• Utrisha™ N rapidly colonizes the entire plant, providing the crop with ammonia shortly after application and continuing to do so, independent of growth stages, as long as the plant needs this nitrogen supply.
• The product is compatible with a multitude of other plant protection products used in both conventional and organic agriculture. However, to maximize the benefits of this product and prevent unpleasant situations, Corteva recommends applying the product while avoiding mixtures. If the situation requires mixing, please contact Corteva's technical department for compatibility details, as it has the most extensive and competent database available to provide useful advice, ensuring maximum efficiency.
• Utrisha™ N is a biological product with a patented formulation by Corteva that can be stored for up to 2 years under normal temperature conditions without any loss of effectiveness.
• Utrisha™ N is an excellent partner in nitrogen management programs, offering flexibility in application and synchronization with the crop's nitrogen needs, making it an excellent source of additional nitrogen, compatible with Optinyte technology.
• Sustainability is also reflected in the fact that Utrisha™ N can provide crop plants with nitrogen without the risk of leaching into groundwater or introducing additional greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.

Utrisha™ N is a natural product, and therefore, to achieve the expected results, it must be used strictly following the label.

Results from 2022 and 2023 worldwide have shown that Utrisha™ N is the solution for a sustainable future in modern agriculture, which makes the product currently used on millions of hectares, just one year after its launch.
