📣 NEW WHEAT TRIALS DATA
New independent trial data from the 2025/26 winter wheat season shows Arginex Wheat, a seed-applied crop nutrition that activates the root zone, delivers three things that growers need: faster establishment and more grain, yield stability and grain quality.
🌾 Winter wheat grown from Arginex-treated seed yielded 0.26 t/ha more on average (a 4.3% gain), showing a statistically significant response across the program (p = 0.009).
🌾 With 20% less nitrogen and phosphorus, Arginex-treated wheat was not significantly different in yield from the untreated crop on full fertiliser, while the untreated crop on the same cut lost 0.43 t/ha. This is relevant for growers facing nitrogen restrictions.
🌾 With drought in Poland and a hot May and June in Italy, plots sown with Arginex-treated seed varied about 20% less in yield than plots sown with untreated seed. The treated crop held steadier at all seven sites (p = 0.01).
🌾 Grain quality held up: changes in grain protein were small (−0.3 to +0.4 percentage points) and thousand-kernel weight was unchanged at six of seven sites, so the extra yield came mainly from more grains.
"Growers are looking for more than a higher yield. What they want is to hold their yield year after year, even when the unpredictable hits, such as the weather," said Dr Georgios Foufas, CEO of Arevo. "Arginex-treated seed has shown a clear pattern. Plot-to-plot variation in yield was 20% lower where the seed was coated with Arginex than where it was not. And because the crop establishes faster, it gets extra days in autumn to build the roots and tillers it will carry through winter and turn into grain the following summer."
"Farming is unpredictable. Arginex is not," Dr Foufas continued. "A wheat grower commits to a crop in October and finds out how it went the following July. The frost, the drought and a fertiliser price that moves by the week are all out of their hands. What goes on the seed shouldn't be. Arginex is a single, non-living molecule, identical in every batch. In its first wheat season it added yield at every one of the seven sites, held the crop steadier through the conditions growers can't control, and did it without trading away protein."
