Amino Acid Programmes For Broad-Acre Cereals And Nursery
Flag leaf and grain fill on one end, rooting and early vigour on the other
The Constraints In This Crop
- Broad-acre cereals and oilseeds are priced on cost per hectare, so anything added at flag leaf has to justify itself against the same budget as nitrogen.
- Nurseries face the opposite constraint: tiny volumes, high value per plant, and no tolerance for a product that burns young tissue.
- One product range has to cover both ends without forcing two suppliers and two sets of documents.
- Seedling drenches need dilute, evenly dissolved solutions that dosing equipment can handle.
What The Programme Has To Deliver
- A low-cost grade for hectare-scale spraying and a concentrated grade for nursery drenches
- Rates published separately for broad-acre and nursery use
- Consistent batch-to-batch behaviour so a nursery protocol stays valid
- Bulk and small-pack options from one supplier

View specificationHow The Programme Is Run
Programme Note 1
Foliar at 0.1 to 0.2% at flag leaf and again during grain fill on cereals and oilseeds.
Programme Note 2
Seedling drench at a 0.05 to 0.1% solution at sowing and before transplant.
Programme Note 3
Amino Acids 35 for broad-acre economics; Amino Acids 80 for concentrated nursery drenches.

Which grade should this crop start with?
Amino Acids 35. Amino Acids 35 for broad-acre economics; Amino Acids 80 for concentrated nursery drenches.
Do you provide crop-specific programmes?
Yes. Send the crop, the area, the current programme and the climate, and our team returns a grade, rate and timing recommendation.
How are the rates expressed?
Foliar rates are given as grams per 100 L of spray and as a percentage solution; fertigation and soil rates are given per hectare per application.
Can the powder be tank mixed with what we already spray?
Run a jar test with the intended tank partners at field concentration before committing a full tank.
What documentation ships with an order?
A batch-specific COA with every shipment, with TDS and SDS available before the order.
