Utrisha N is an alternative nitrogen source that can supply actively growing plants with additional nitrogen to facilitate plant growth

Corteva Agriscience has launched Utrisha N nutrient efficiency optimiser in Europe as part of its biological portfolio, helping meet the demand for more sustainable crop protection products.

Utrisha N is an alternative nitrogen source that can supply actively growing plants with additional nitrogen to facilitate plant growth.

This disruptive technology provides value through integrated nutrition management efficiency in natural field conditions, adapting to the plants’ growth needs and helping to sustainably maximise crop yield potential. It will be available for a wide range of crops, including row crops, vegetables, orchards, grapes, range and pastures and it is launched throughout Europe, except Turkey, the Netherlands and the Nordic countries.

Monica Sorribas, Corteva Agriscience Marketing Leader, Europe, said, “Corteva Agriscience continues to bring new and innovative solutions to market by offering natural-origin products that work complementarily with our conventional crop protection solutions, such as Optinyte nitrogen stabiliser.

Utrisha N can help farmers meet changing environmental conditions while keeping their crops productive and healthy. The launch of the product reinforces our offer to improve sustainable nitrogen efficiency and availability, enhancing yield potential and sustainability, in line with the Corteva Agriscience 2030 Sustainability Goals.

Utrisha N is based on the endophytic bacterium Methylobacterium symbioticum, which works with the plant to secure needed nitrogen from the atmosphere.
