Wilbur-Ellis launches
microbial products
W
ilbur-Ellis Company has launched its
NUTRIO line of microbials, a new line of
biochemistry products to aid in soil nutrition
with a goal of improving plant health and yield
potential.
Microbials are a vital component of soil health
and maintaining growth cycles in plants. Wilbur-
Ellis developed the NUTRIO line after years of
research and data collection to better focus on
soil nutrition and meet the needs of growers.
These products include:
—NUTRIO Biosoak, a premium liquid biologi-
cal soil amendment containing humic acid and a
soil wetting agent designed for application in irri-
gation water to maximize the leaching potential
of treated soils prior to winter rains.
—NUTRIO Unlock, a liquid biological soil
amendment containing a diverse array of ben-
eficial soil bacteria cultured from specifically
selected pure strains of microbes in an oxy-
gen-enriched process for maximum viability.
—NUTRIO High Gear, an eco-friendly liquid
biological soil amendment containing seven
species of beneficial soil bacteria and liquid
humic acid to promote soil and plant health and
improve nutrient uptake.
—NUTRIO Powershift, a unique liquid
high-orthophosphate fertilizer containing seven
species of beneficial soil bacteria to elevate yields,
increase plant vigor and enhance resistance to
stress.
Founded in 1921, Wilbur-Ellis is a leading
international marketer and distributor of agricul-
tural products, animal feed and specialty chemi-
cals and ingredients, with sales over $3.1 billion.
