YaraVita® BIOTRAC™

YaraVita® BIOTRAC™

YaraVita BIOTRAC is a liquid formulation for foliar applications based on a blend of nutrients and bioactive compounds extracted from the algae Ascophyllum nodosum. It was developed to alleviate the impact of abiotic stress conditions (e.g. cold and drought) and help the plant during periods of high metabolic demand in order to stimulate flowering, fruit set and improve yield quality and quantity.

The liquid formulation makes it easy to measure, pour and mix the product in the spray tank.

A broad tank mixability makes it easy to co-apply the products with agrochemicals, saving both time and money. Just as important, free access to Tankmix information online or via smartphones makes it quick and easy to check whether products can be co-applied.

Nutrient composition Product and safety information Product application advice
Apples

Apple: 1-3 Pints/ac Beginning at pink bud, bloom, petal fall, full fruit set during fruit sizing and bulking until early color creak. Also during periods of environmental stress. Also post harvest before leaf senescence. Water rate: 40 gal/ac minimum.
Beans

Beans: two applications of 0.5-1.0 quarts/acre at V3/V4 and again at R1/R2. Minimum water rate 15-20 gallons per acre.

Blueberries

Fertigated Crops

Fertigation: 2.5 to 5 QT/acre applied via a fertigation system. Apply alone. Mix and use immediately. Dilute with sufficient water volume for sufficient application time for thorough coverage and Flush system thoroughly immediately after application with clean water. Apply at the end of the irrigation set. CAUTION with use in "closed" or in "recirculating" systems, or application to plants/crops grown in pots/containers, as microbial growth may occur. Repeat at the same rate with the same number of inputs and timing advice as for foliar recommendations for each named crop.
