NOVASTIM® (1 l)

NOVASTIM^® - New-generation biostimulant with intensive metabolic action

Non-microbial biofertilizer and biostimulant, formulated as a concentrated suspension (SC) from the purified supernatant of the fermentation of Bacillus subtilis strain LBS2. The production process involves centrifugation and filtration, ensuring a product free of the living microorganism, but rich in bioactive metabolites with recognised phytostimulant action.

Mode of action and physiological benefits

Foliar application of the product allows the primary and secondary metabolites exuded by the microorganism during fermentation to be assimilated directly by the plant, triggering a series of positive effects:

• Stimulation of the production of plant hormones with growth-promoting properties;
• Improvement of photosynthesis and biomass accumulation, increasing vigour and tolerance to abiotic stress;
• Increased water retention capacity, essential during periods of drought or extreme heat;
• Optimisation of flowering and fruiting, with a greater number of flowers and fruits per plant;
• Improved nutrient uptake and efficiency, especially during critical phases such as flowering and ripening;
• Strengthening of the plant's natural resistance, with a direct impact on the quality and preservation of the harvest.

Recommended crops and application

NOVASTIM^® can be used on practically all agricultural crops, including:

• Grapevine, fruit trees, vegetables, soft fruits, cereals, ornamentals, forestry, nurseries and aromatic/medicinal plants;
• Applications recommended throughout all the vegetative phases: transplanting, budburst, flowering, fruiting and ripening;
• Usual dose: 100 to 500 mL/hL, with homogeneous foliar spraying over young and active leaves.

Sustainability and compatibility

• Natural and biodegradable product, with no living microorganisms or chemical residues;
• Authorised for Organic Agriculture and Integrated Production;
• Compatible with most agricultural products, except substances that significantly alter the pH (e.g.: copper);
• Stable to UV light and resistant to wash-off by rain.

Dose: 0,5L/ha (1 to 4x per cycle)
