Hydrovant Gives Your Active Ingredients an Upgrade
Each crop input is formulated to take on a specific role in crop management. Herbicides control weeds, fungicides manage diseases and improve crop health, insecticides mitigate harmful insects. Fertilizers and micronutrients ensure the crop has proper nutrition. Hydrovant®, a water-based adjuvant from Corbet Scientific, ensures that those active ingredients deliver at peak performance.
Formulated to Last
Hydrovant’s polymer activator-sticker technology protects your active ingredients and your customers’ crops. Adding Hydrovant into your spray mixtures ensures that your crop protection chemicals and fertilizers stick around long enough to do their job. The microscopic mesh structure allows water and carbon dioxide to flow through the leaf to allow the plant to breathe, preventing burns or suffocation.
“Hydrovant really is unique from competing products that are on the market today,” Corbet Scientific Vice President Tom Zangrillo says, “It clings to the active ingredient it’s combined with and makes it last longer so the plant can get the full benefit from that product.”
A True Utility Player
From pesticides to fertilizers, Hydrovant is a strong addition to your crop inputs. Hydrovant has shown excellent pre- and post-emerge efficacy in herbicides and ensures liquid fertilizers stay in the soil target zone longer. You can feel confident that adding Hydrovant to your crop inputs will provide added value for your customers.
Hydrovant is also a great fit for almost any application type, making it the perfect addition to aerial, foliar or soil-incorporated applications. It also can be applied on virtually any crop, according to Zangrillo.
“Hydrovant is extremely versatile. It can be combined with a number of different products, in a number of different crops,” Zangrillo says. “We have yet to find a market where it doesn’t have a place.”
Research studying the efficacy of Hydrovant has been conducted in a variety of different crops and regions to support claims of versatility, including cotton aphid control in cucumbers in the San Joaquin Valley of California, Asian Citrus Psyllid on oranges, rust control in soybeans in Mississippi and more.
Safe on the Environment
In addition to being good for you and your customers’ bottom lines, Hydrovant is also beneficial to the environment. Its water-based formula means it’s safe for the environment and the activator sticker technology allows pesticides or fertilizers to remain on the leaf and work longer and not in nearby waterways.
Even when tested in extreme weather conditions and varying climates, Hydrovant has not shown any signs of phytoxicity, so you can rest assured that your customers’ crops will be safe in the hands of Hydrovant.
No matter the crop input you sell, Hydrovant is the perfect partner to upgrade your active ingredients and take them to a new level. To learn more about Corbet Scientific and Hydrovant visit Hydrovant.com
