With September on the calendar, another apple, pear and tree fruit/nut harvest season gets into full swing across the Pacific Northwest. It's nearing the end of the season for most of our growers across the country and what a season it's been! The R&D team with newly hired Research Specialist Reagan Dodge, is busy receiving, organizing, digitizing and annotating data from the field, including a few paid trials. There's been some exciting results with large-scale tree nut production and NanoN with reduced UAN application and high TDS water that really highlights what's possible with this next-generation nanoliquid technology. Our Sales Manager Jeff Howe has been working with a newly signed Aqua-Yield dealer/distributor and the R&D team to explore post-harvest applications of our nanoliquid technology. Commodity chain infrastructure has been extensively built-out in the region, with control of ripening and inventory managed to precision with use of hormone-antagonists like 1-MCP. Nanoliquid technology is able to deliver AIs with high-efficiency, after all. We're hyped.
We're also looking at adding 1-2 additional elements beyond the existing nutrition to our NanoStress formulation to help our growers retain plant and crop resilience through volatile, challenging conditions. Final NanoFe trials will also allow for a Spring 2022 launch of this exciting product! We expect much of the winter season to be filled with greenhouse work looking at potential additions on a few key crops' growth rate, root mass, etc. Our existing customers can soon also expect access to a 24/7 live feed of side-by-side trials on crops like wheat, corn, tomato, cotton, melon, etc.
