Increase of Wheat Yield

Aggregated Results related to the Increase of the Total Production of Hard Wheat

Increase of Wheat Yield
Through the Agrology Success Stories in Greece and abroad, it is proven that the superior quality and integrated innovative technologies of the Agrology Specialized Nutrition products make the difference in crops from the very first applications!

Our ultimate goal is to demonstrate that the Agrology Specialized Nutrition Programs constitute a profitable investment for producers, as the financial benefits more than cover the cost of the additional applications!

Agrology, in collaboration with Greek Research Organizations and Commercial Agricultural Supply Stores, carried out a series of evidence-based applications in the cultivation of grains.  The applications were carried out in different regions of the country in a period of three consecutive years, and more specifically in 2019, 2020 and 2021, with the final goal of increasing the Total Production with the application of the XGel activ Sapphire formulation.

XGel activ Sapphire is a balanced product of Specialized Nutrition for the cultivation of grains, aiming to increase Wheat Yield. Enriched with the biostimulating action of Gravital® Technology Bioavailable Silicon and enhanced with E2DA® technology, it boosts the Absorption and rapid Movement of nutrients within the plant and Strengthens its defense against Abiotic Stress!

The goal of Success Stories was to Increase Wheat Yield.

Specialized Nutrition – Fertilization Program

Foliar Intervention: Before Tillering

  • XGel® activ Sapphire (300 cc/1,000 sq.m.)

Balanced nutritional formula enriched with Silicon

  • Increase of tillers in hard wheat
  • Boost of vegetative growth
  • Increase of Overall Production

Application Results

During the field applications, there were samplings from both sections -Control and Agrology-, and the final yield of both was specified during harvest. The Agrology Program generated impressive results in the agronomic characteristics of the crop, to the benefit of the producer.

More specifically, the results were as follows:

Average Increase in the Total Production of 16.8%

  • Agrology: 495.0 kg/1,000 sq.m.
  • Control: 423.8 kg/1,000 sq.m.
