Orion Future Technologies (FT) offers a range of biostimulant products, including silicon biostimulants which enhance the natural defenses of a plant to protect against pest and pathogen attacks.
Orion’s products will be distributed in Azerbaijan by the PR-Agrogroup from 2022 onwards. Managing Director James Kennedy says: “We are working closely with Peter Parr of PR-Agrogroup, who has over 35 years of experience in the industry. He has been recommending our products to UK farmers for many years and is familiar with the benefits they offer commercial growers. We see this partnership as an excellent fit and look forward to building the silicon sector in Azerbaijan together.”
“Our enhanced iNHiBTechnology makes silicon available to crops in its monosilisilic form, and once absorbed, this enables silicon to be deposited within and between the cells of the plant. It has been proven to increase wheat yields and reduce damage caused by grazing pests such as cabbage stem flea beetle and slugs,” says Mr. Kennedy.
With climate extremes becoming more common, Orion FT is pushing hard to emphasize the benefits of products that can improve plant and soil health. “To attend the Caspian Agro exhibition in Baku is a great opportunity for us to show how biostimulants are helping farmers grow a wide variety of crops, from strawberries to wheat, and how our products can help with the agricultural challenges of global food production,” he concludes.
