LIDA Plant Research Launches New Root-Applied Biovaccine Suitable for Organic Farming
The biotechnology company based in Valencia, LIDA Plant Research, with over 35 years of experience in the agricultural sector, presents ULTIMITE BIOFORCE, a next-generation biovaccine that naturally activates plant defense responses, thanks to its exclusive BIOFORCE Technology.
Comprehensive and synergistic defense
BIOFORCE technology is a technique developed by LIDA Plant Research that enables the formulation of elicitors and microorganisms in a single product. This combination acts synergistically in the plant, boosting the expression of defense-related genes, particularly those involved in the synthesis of volatile compounds that attract beneficial organisms and natural enemies.
ULTIMITE BIOFORCE is thus positioned as a strategic ally in Integrated Pest Management (IPM) and biological control programs, helping crops thrive in a more favorable, less aggressive, and more sustainable environment.
Differentiating advantages of root application
One of the major advances of Ultimite BIOFORCE is its high effectiveness when applied via the roots, which multiplies its benefits:
- Greater absorption and utilization: By being incorporated directly into the root zone, where absorbent root hairs are concentrated, the plant assimilates the product more efficiently, activating and establishing induced systemic resistance from the roots to all plant cells.
- Prolonged and sustained action: The product remains available in the soil for a longer period, allowing for gradual release and continuous absorption, ensuring long-lasting effects.
- Improves soil structure and health: Thanks to the microorganisms it contains, it promotes beneficial microbial activity, increasing soil fertility and resilience.
- Perfect compatibility with fertigation: It is easily integrated into irrigation systems, optimizing time and resources.
