2025 National Trial Results

Specialty Multi-Nutrient Boosters & Stress Management Products

Season 2025 has further strengthened the case for integrating targeted nutrient efficiency and stress mitigation strategies into Australian broadacre systems.

At Active AgriScience, research and development sits at the centre of product design. Our specialty multi-nutrient boosters combine balanced nutrition with INTRINSIC™, our patented stress-management molecule, developed to help crops better manage abiotic stress events throughout the growing season.

While these technologies have delivered consistent profitability in Canada, validating performance under Australian conditions has been a key priority since entering the market. From 2019–2025, we have undertaken extensive local validation including:

  • Small-plot replicated trials.
  • Independent agronomic assessments.
  • In-paddock grower demonstration strips.
  • Multi-season, multi-location validation.

The objective remains clear: deliver profitable, sustainable and practical solutions that integrate seamlessly into existing farming systems.

National Overview: 2019–2025

Across cereals, canola and pulses, results continue to demonstrate measurable yield responses under Australian growing conditions.

Our flagship seed treatment, Active PRIME, is now applied to well over 100,000 hectares nationally, reflecting strong grower confidence and repeat adoption.

For growers equipped with liquid systems, Active INFURROW has been developed to support early crop establishment through targeted in-furrow nutrition. Early Australian trial work has also indicated additional synergistic benefits when used alongside soil wetters in moisture-limited environments.

Stress mitigation has proven to be particularly valuable in recent seasons.

  • Active BUILD has shown consistent capacity to reduce visible herbicide “lag” effects and support crops through vegetative stress events.
  • Active FLOWER has demonstrated benefits during pollination in canola and lentils, supporting reproductive efficiency.
  • Active PLS is showing potential as a seed dressing in pulse programs.

Importantly, responses have been recorded across variable rainfall patterns, reinforcing the role of stress management alongside nutrient optimisation.

2025 Trial Highlights by Crop

Cereals (Wheat Focus)

2025 trial-locations-wheat
Replicated Wheat Trial Locations

Active PRIME – Wheat

Replicated Australian trials continue to show improvements in early vigour, root development and final yield. Yield responses have remained consistent across rainfall zones, reinforcing the importance of early crop establishment and stress buffering.

Active INFURROW – Wheat

In-furrow placement has delivered improved nutrient availability and crop establishment during critical early growth stages. Yield uplift has also been evident where other stresses have been experienced during the season.

2025 active-infurrow-wheat-australia

Active BUILD – Wheat

Trial results show reduced visual herbicide setback and faster recovery post-application. Yield benefits appear strongest in seasons where crops experienced stacked stress events.

Active GRAINFILL – Wheat

Applications targeting grain fill periods have supported examples of improved yield and grain quality in some regions.

Looking Ahead to 2026

Trial work will continue to expand in 2026, with:

  • Repeat product trials across regions.
  • Greater grower co-operator involvement.
  • Expanded crop validation.
  • Continued economic analysis using ROI under Australian conditions.

Our focus remains the same: profitable, practical and scientifically validated solutions for Australian growers.
