Redox Grows

Spring marks a time for heightened activity in fields and orchards across the nation. The nutrition choices a grower makes go a long way towards determining their outcome at harvest.
Redox RAM (Redox Active Molecule) technology helps keep plants in charge balance, so your crops can solely focus on yield and quality.
RDX-N® has been an excellent addition in California almond orchards, improving nitrogen use by up to 50 percent while maintaining or enhancing performance. 
“It’s really exciting,” said Redox agronomist AJ Borges. “We want to take back a little bit of control and utilize a product that’s so powerful. RDX-N gives us the opportunity to take the reins back and utilize nitrogen more efficiently.”
Borges said he has seen excellent success with diKaP™ with California cherries, as it helps with unform color, improved quality and protection against abiotic stress events, including untimely rains or heat waves. 
Additionally, he said OsmoFlow™ has been an excellent addition to improve salinity concerns and water efficiency for field corn grown in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta.

Success in farming is hard-earned. For the Richardson family in White Marsh, Maryland, their farm involves many family members and has included tremendous labor and innovation for nearly a century.
Brian Richardson is the fifth generation of the family working at their farm and grocery store. They are known far and wide for their excellent quality vegetables, including kale, collard greens, tomatoes and sweet corn. Many Redox products help nourish their crops, including Rootex, Rx Platinum, diKaP, TriPlex Micro, Mainstay Calcium 2.0 and Mainstay Si.
He said he had great success with RDX-N with his winter kale crop and will be using more of this nitrogen optimization technology next season. 
“I definitely plan to incorporate it more,” Richardson said, including his first sweet corn crop of the year, which he hopes “I can cut fertilizer usage even more and get the benefit of it.”

From greenskeeper to superintendent, Tanner Jacobs has made a steady climb in his young career. He’s in charge at Rocky Bayou Country Club in Niceville, Florida, and obsesses over every detail to provide his customers with the best golf experience. Keeping his turfgrass balanced and perfectly playable is a top priority.
“I don’t make a simple soil application without incorporating calcium and OsmoPro™ in my program,” he said. “I feel since we started using it, we’ve had a lot of success with health, with growth and just overall playability and how they look. For my program, it’s perfect.”
Rocky Bayou features 115 acres of championship play, incorporating rolling hills, sprawling oaks and stately pines, including 18 holes that they describe as “challenging play with wide fairways, perfectly managed greens, and five spring fed lakes.”

Among the watchouts from the Iran War is the supreme challenge of getting key inputs for growers through the Strait of Hormuz.  This has caused price spikes and supply uncertainty during planting season- a crucial period of fertilizer use.
Josh Linville of StoneX has spent nearly a quarter century tracking the fertilizer market. He said the situation is terrible in terms of price, but there also have been some overly dramatic reporting. As with many big issues, the truth lies somewhere in between. 
“Affordability and availability are two completely different terms,” said Josh Linville, Vice President of Fertilizer for StoneX, a prominent financial services network that began more than a century ago. “From an affordability standpoint yes, it’s terribly overpriced. But from an availability standpoint, based on what we think we need for imports to finish out this fertilizer year, based on what we know has come and we think has come through March, we only need about a million ton for April and May. But again, good can go to bad very quickly.”

Scientific advancement has been a hallmark characteristic of our company, but it needs to be rooted in practicality for the grower. Fortunately these two areas are seamlessly blending with Redox technology.
Dr's Gifford Gillette and Debatosh Das play crucial roles in research at Redox Bio-Nutrients. They collaborate and oversee scores of trials done in a variety of locations, including our research farm in Burley, Idaho, with contract research organizations and universities.
The success rate for these projects shows an extremely bright future, as RAM (redox active molecule) technology is a universal benefit to all growers, regardless of crop or region they are farmed.
Gillette and Das are both extremely positive about RDX-N®, which has undergone more than a decade of research and fieldwork, and provides up to 50 percent optimization of nitrogen without any performance loss.
