Acadian Plant Health has introduced BioSwitch, a new production process for its biostimulants range.

BioSwitch involves harvesting the seaweed species Ascophyllum nodosum using a proprietary extraction process to ensure a maximum composition of beneficial bioactive compounds that stimulate crops by triggering natural processes and active compound production.

Backed by more than 20 years of trials, BioSwitch-activated biostimulants offer a unique and consistent biochemical composition, according to the company.

The proprietary alkaline extraction process that BioSwitch-activated biostimulants undergo is proven to maximize the extraction of biomarkers that form bio-actives from the seaweed, meaning that biostimulants with the BioSwitch logo have bio-actives that are produced in their most pure and active state.
