CHOOSING A BIOSTIMULANT: A STRATEGIC DECISION, NOT A ROLL OF THE DICE
Each TIMAC AGRO biostimulant targets a specific aspect of crop development. It is therefore key to select a biostimulant based on the desired impact at each critical stage.
Early Season: Building a Solid Foundation
Just as a house needs a solid foundation to stand on, a plant needs a strong root system to grow effectively. A well-developed root system covered with absorbent root hairs creates more surface area allowing better overall soil exploration and increased nutrient uptake during crucial early growth stages. A strong root system ensures optimal crop establishment—an essential foundation to start the season strong.

FERTIACTYL GZ or FERTIACTYL STARTER, applied during the crop’s early stages, allows the plant to focus on producing strong roots. Through solid establishment in the soil, the plant can optimize nutrient absorption as it develops throughout the growing season.
Coming Out of the Ground: Protecting Against Abiotic Stresses
As soon as the plant emerges, abiotic stresses come into play: an unexpected cold snap, lack of moisture or the scorching sun. Each of these climatic events can slow growth and hinder the plant’s primary function, which is to produce yield. By applying a biostimulant before the first stresses occur, the plant is able to stay focused on growth and remain productive, regardless of the conditions.

FERTILEADER VITAL or FERTILEADER ALPHA: When periods of stress occur, the photosynthetic activity within the plant decreases and with it, the yield potential. Incorporating an application of a biostimulant will aid in increasingthe intensity and duration of photosynthesis, effectively reducing these growth breaks and preserving yield potential.
At Flowering: Maximizing Yield Potential
Each flower represents an opportunity for yield, which is why biostimulants play a key role at this stage. By aiding in recovery and assisting the plant in remaining productive, flower production is protected and yield potential is optimized.

FERTILEADER GOLD or FERTILEADER MAGICAL: By applying a biostimulant during the reproductive stage of the crop, the potential yield can be protected from stressful conditions.
Support at Every Stage, From the Root to the Leaves
There is a biostimulant tailored to each unique stage and need throughout a plant’s life cycle. Optimal protection for your crop begins at the roots and extends all the way to the tips of the leaves. When trying to determine which formulation to use, our Agronomic Technical Consultants are out in the field, available to guide you in your biostimulant decisions and offer you the solution best suited to your crop’s specific needs.
