Impact of R-Leaf® on Agriculture
The generation of nitrate on the plant enables synthetic nitrogen fertiliser applications to be reduced and yield to be increased,based on 96 trials over 5 years.
Early assessments also show that the fertiliser reduction, combined with the N2O breakdown, gives a validated carbon footprint reduction of up to 5.4 tonnes per hectare – a big help in reducing on-farm emissions.
Benefits of R-Leaf®
Synthetic Nitrogen Reduction – R-Leaf® nitrate production at foliar level unlocks synthetic fertilizer reduction without compromise in yield or quality.
Increased Yield – R-Leaf® trials have shown a potential increased yield when the synthetic nitrogen application was reduced.
Enhanced Carbon Footprint Reduction – R-Leaf® use generates an increased carbon footprint reduction in the agrifood supply chain by the reduction of synthetic fertilisers and N2O greenhouse gas removal.
