INTRODUCTION
Ultor insecticide (Spirotetramat) is very effective however is slow to get into the plant. Grower claims no activity for at least 10 days after application. Speeding up activity to stop psyllid destruction is key.
HYPOTHESIS
NanoPro with Ultor can increase AI uptake.
MATERIALS
PROCEDURE
DATA 
- Two Anjou blocks were sprayed on the same day. All rates were the same with exception to the NanoPro. Check vs trial.
- Check (201 Larson Ranch)
- Trial (102 A Ranch)
- The NanoPro was mixed in with the Ultor and then the adjuvants were added.
- Application was done on a Thursday (June 30th) and tissue samples were pulled on Tuesday (July 5).
- 8 new shoots per block were pulled at 10:00 AM, the leaves were washed, patted dry and then shipped overnight to Pacific Ag Labs for AI testing.
DATA 
CONCLUSION
Applications of Ultor with nanoliquid technology increased the AI content of new shoots by 64% 5 days after application.

When it comes to fertilizer coatings, simplicity and efficiency matter. That’s where NanoCote Core stands out. Designed with user-friendly application in mind, it integrates seamlessly into existing operations—no complicated processes, no additional investments in specialized equipment.
Farming is more than planting seeds and waiting for rain. Today’s agriculture requires precision, efficiency, and innovation. That’s where NanoCote™ by Nano-Yield comes in — a revolutionary fertilizer coating designed to help farmers get the most out of every acre.
In modern agriculture, efficiency, consistency, and product quality are more important than ever. Fertilizer blenders are at the heart of this process, and using NanoCote™ can make a big difference in operations, equipment longevity, and the end product. Cleaner, Safer Operations One of the biggest challenges for blenders is dust. Dust not only creates a mess but also contributes to equipment wear and potential product loss. NanoCote™ tackles this problem head-on, reducing dust by up to 99%. The result? Cleaner equipment, less maintenance, and a safer environment for workers. Simpler, Faster Application Applying coatings to fertilizer can be a time-consuming and complex task—especially if heat or specialized equipment is required. NanoCote™ is designed to blend easily and dry quickly, without the need for additional machinery. With only 3–4 quarts per ton required, blenders can achieve consistent coverage without altering the fertilizer’s nutrient profile. Boosted Efficiency and Product Quality NanoCote™ doesn’t just make operations cleaner—it also helps improve throughput. Its uniform coating ensures that each granule is protected and nutrient-rich, preventing segregation and enhancing overall product quality. Plus, after application nutrients are protected in the soil with increased uptake efficiency to support higher yield. Environmental and Economic Advantages NanoCote™ is biodegradable, protecting fertilizer nutrients while keeping soil biology safe. And by reducing dust and minimizing wear on equipment, blenders save money on maintenance and replacement costs. Plus, consistent high-quality products translate to better crop performance, stronger relationships with customers, and increased business success. Why Blenders Love NanoCote™ From cleaner operations to cost savings, NanoCote™ provides tangible benefits at every stage of the blending process. It’s a smart choice for fertilizer blenders who want to enhance operational efficiency, improve product quality, and support sustainable practices. NanoCote™ is changing the way fertilizer blenders operate—one granule at a time.
In agriculture, time is precious — every season, every input, every decision counts. That’s why Nano-Yield created the Nano-Yield Podcast, a platform dedicated to helping farmers, agronomists, and industry leaders grow smarter by understanding the real science behind nanotechnology in agriculture.
Maximizing crop growth starts with the right nutrients — and NanoCote™ makes it easier than ever to get the most out of your granular fertilizer. Designed for simplicity, efficiency, and consistent results, NanoCote™ allows farmers and agronomists to enhance their fertilizer application.
