🍓🍓🍓 Next level strawberries in Salinas, CA

Jenny Phillips, Director of Marketing • Jun 30, 2021

This week new nanoliquid dealer L.A. Hearne Company and Penny Newman Farm Products walked a strawberry farm in Salinas, CA to discuss the huge success they’ve seen with using NanoK®. Typically their potassium levels were under 1.8%, but after reducing their liquid potassium rates and adding NanoK® they are seeing the levels spike to 2.5%. The grower is extremely happy with the increased uptake in his crop due to using Aqua-Yield® nanoliquid.


NanoK® delivers potassium acetate energized by Aqua-Yield® NanoShield® Technology to provide a boost of potassium to strawberries and is vital for plant growth. Applying NanoK® ensures a strong plant structure resulting in enhanced crop quality and yield. NanoK® keeps sweetness and brix levels high. NanoK® also decreases drought stress and boosts the plant’s immune system to fight off disease. 


In addition to NanoK®, Aqua-Yield® offers other nanoliquids to help promote crop health through critical growth stages to harvest:


  • Transplant
    NanoStress® after transplanting reduces transplant shock and improves establishment.
  • Early-Mid Season
    NanoGro® and NanoK® every other week improves plant vigor and stress tolerance.
  • Late Season
    NanoCalsi™ keeps fruit firm through heat. NanoK® keeps sweetness and brix levels high.
  • All Season
    Fungicide rates may be reduced when using NanoPro®, allowing for more possible products with seasonal application limits.

Some of their success has been attributed to two sustainable product lines which continue to prove their worth in providing early and faster growth, more healthy plants and cost-effective returns on investment: Calcine® and nanotechnology-based products from Aqua-Yield®.

Aqua-Yield® was excited to partner with Beck's again this year and trial some of our nanoliquid® products through their PFR (Practical Farm Research) program. Our 2-year multi-location trials show how our technology helps growers take their inputs to the next level. We strive to become PFR Proven next year!

NanoPro is the Aqua-Yield® flagship carrier adjuvant for crop protection applications. Add NanoPro to any Plant Growth Regulator (PGR) product to increase plant uptake and amplify the end result for crops. PGR products mimic natural plant hormones that either promote or slow plant growth. The chemical structure of PGR products is highly synergistic with Aqua-Yield nanotechnology.
