Novozymes' microbial-based biofertility, biocontrol, and bioyield enhancer products work to naturally produce healthier crops and improve yields.

Our biofertility products include both MultiAction® and single-action legume inoculants.

Optimize® contains LCO Promoter Technology®, a unique molecule that, enhances a plant’s nutritional capabilities which drives natural growth processes immediately and independently of growing conditions. Optimize is available in a granular formulation for pea and lentil and liquid formulation for peas, lentil, alfalfa, soybeans, and peanuts.

JumpStart®, is a phosphate inoculant that grows along the root making more soil and fertilizer phosphate available to the plant, to deliver healthier crops and higher net returns. JumpStart is available for corn, canola, wheat, and legume crops.

TagTeam® LCO is a MultiAction, biofertility inoculant that combines the proven performance of LCO (lipo-chitooligosaccharide) Promoter Technology and the phosphate-solubilizing benefits of Penicillium bilaii. New for 2012, TagTeam LCO is available in both a liquid and a granular formulation for use on peas, lentils, and soybeans.

TagTeam combines the best in rhizobia strains with Pencillium bilaii, the active ingredient in JumpStart the phosphate inoculant, for improved phosphate efficiency. TagTeam is available in granular, peat, and liquid formulations for use on peas, lentils, and soybeans; peat and granular formulations for chickpeas; or peat formulation for dry beans.

Bioyield enhancers are products derived from plants and microorganisms that enhance the crop’s nutritional capabilities to improve plant growth, increase stress tolerance, and improve yields.

Torque™ is a seed or in-furrow applied LCO Promoter Technology for corn, and Ratchet is a patented, foliar-applied LCO Promoter Technology for corn and soybeans.
