New Surfactant Added to Wilbur-Ellis Organic Line
A new surfactant has been added to the Wilbur-Ellis Agribusiness organic product line. This expanding portfolio of OMRI-listed products offers growers a cutting-edge approach to organic integration and crop production.
“INFOLIUM-EA is a nonionic surfactant, specifically formulated to bring conventional functionality to an organic surfactant,” said Jason Ellsworth, organic portfolio manager, Wilbur-Ellis Agribusiness. “By increasing both the spreadability of the spray and the active ingredients’ penetration into the leaf tissue, INFOLIUM-EA helps pesticides perform better.”
INFOLIUM-EA improves weed and pest control in multiple ways:
- Reduces surface tension between the spray droplets and the plant cuticle
- Promotes quick wetting and spreading to produce a more uniform spray deposit
- Efficiently moves the active ingredient into the water channels of the leaf
- Increases absorption of the product
Organic growers have a high-quality, high-performing, consistent and reliable surfactant choice with INFOLIUM-EA. It features a unique, patented technology that is safe to use, environmentally friendly and efficacious. This product can be used for application to crops and other sites, including aquatic, non-crop vegetation, turf and ornamental.
“Consumers are asking for sustainably grown, wholesome and organic products,” said Ellsworth. “We’re dedicated to providing growers with the resources they need to produce high-value organic crops in order to meet the demands of today’s consumers.”
