FAQs
-
What makes nano different?
Nano is a size classification for very small. Nanoparticles are generally 1-100 nanometers in size which makes them:
- Have unique physical properties
- Ideal for specialized applications
- Readily absorbed by plants
-
What other industries use nanoparticles?
Nanoparticles are utilized in numerous industries including medicine, electronics, computer science, solar power, air purification, and more. Nano-Yield™ nanoparticles are designed specifically for application to plants.
-
What is nanoliquid technology?
Nanoliquid technology is a patented carrier additive that uses nanoparticles to load and carry any liquid products in a tank mixture. Loaded nanoparticles deliver a higher volume of crop inputs when applied to plants.
-
How does nanoliquid technology work?
- Loading: Nanoparticles load with fertilizers and crop protection products instantly through ionic exchange on the charged surface of the nanoparticle.
- Delivery: Loaded nanoparticles are rapidly absorbed into leaves and roots through a process called endocytosis.
- Release: Products are released and available to the plant after the nanoparticle is absorbed.
-
Do I need to worry about compatibility?
Nanoliquid products are highly compatible with other fertilizer and chemical products. Contact your local sales representative for information about specific products.
-
How have nanoliquid products been tested?
Nanoliquid technology research and trials are ongoing in cooperation with research institutions and large growers. Nano-Yield™ has performed and sponsored hundreds of trials on various crops. Contact your sales representative for more information.
-
Do I need to change my current fertility program?
No, nanoliquid technology enhances the efficiency of your current crop inputs without changing your program.
-
What kind of ROI (return on investment) should growers expect?
Growers who add nanoliquid products with every application can expect improvements in crop yield and quality, as well as improved control of weeds, diseases, and insect pests. Growers report an ROI starting at 3:1 and much higher in many cases.
-
Are there any restrictions on application to certain crops?
Generally no, however some products are registered differently depending on your state. Contact your sales representative for more information.
-
Why are nanoliquid rates from only 2-6 oz per acre?
1 oz of nanoliquid™ contains billions of nanoparticles available to load with crop inputs. Aqua-Yield® formulations target a low volume use rate to reduce packaging waste and increase ease of use.
