Innovative ag dealers from all over the country gather for the big event by Aqua-Yield®

Big things are happening for our “nano” company, and the excitement and passion for helping growers nationwide with our new technology is highly contagious. November 15-17 was our 2nd Annual NanoCon located in Salt Lake City, where current and future dealers of Aqua-Yield® nanoliquids gathered to learn more about the technology and some of our latest developments.

NanoCon first began with a reception Monday night in which dealers had a chance to mingle with fellow innovators and Aqua-Yield® employees. Tuesday morning began with the Pledge of Allegiance by City of South Jordan Mayor Dawn Ramsey, followed by a moment of silence for our friend and employee David Porter that had passed the week prior . The day was full of educational presentations, a dealer panel, and awards. Wednesday was “fun day” in which attendees could venture out on a tour of Park City and/or visit the new Aqua-Yield hub located in Sandy.

The excitement among dealers and employees has energized everyone for another year of rapid growth and education, especially as everyone prepares for the new product launches. With our recent news of becoming a USDA and EPA Winner of the Next Gen Fertilizer Innovations Challenge , growers are encouraged by the benefits our products have to offer, especially during this time of economic turmoil.

New product launches for 2022

Omni Crop Care

Aqua-Yield® was excited to announce the launch of Omni Crop Care. This groundbreaking product line effectively works as a delivery system for nutrients and crop protection in organic production and regenerative agriculture. This new line includes 3 products: OmniGro™, OmniPro™, and CX-1+Pro. More information can be found on the website: www.omnicropcare.com.

OmniGro™ delivers a robust blend of biostimulant and micronutrients, fueled by Aqua-Yield® Technology to speed up germination, providing fast, stronger establishment of all crops, and stimulates growth all season long. OmniGro™ is a completely unique and powerful product for superior crop growth and yield potential. OmniGro™ is in the process of being registered across the United States. Please contact an Aqua-Yield® representative for availability in your state.

OmniPro™ fueled by Aqua-Yield® Technology can be added to any spray mixture to enhance plant uptake of organic crop protection products. This product is field tested and grower approved to advance the way you manage organic crop production. OmniPro™ is now available in all states.

Enhance soil and plant health with one easy to use liquid: CX-1+Pro . A 100% plant-based extract, broad spectrum, and multi-species, CX-1+Pro is a product manufactured with Purple Cow Organics® patented process. Thousands of fungal and bacterial strains are driven to the soil and plant by Aqua-Yield® Technology that shields exudates and metabolites, enhancing the rhizosphere. CX-1+Pro is an effective and flexible tool in building soil health and nutrient use efficiency throughout the growing season, approved for certified organic as well as conventional systems. 

NanoFe™

NanoFe™ delivers a boost of iron, energized by nanoliquid technology. Iron mobility is often limited, but NanoFe™ makes delivery of iron possible when selective plant uptake restricts iron absorption by the roots during critical growth. NanoFe™ supports “green” development while supporting respiration, photosynthesis, and chlorophyll formation. Iron is a key component of nodule nitrogen fixation.
