Yara Launches Two Biostimulants in US With Up to 15:1 Trial ROI
TAMPA, Fla. – October 29, 2026 -- Yara North America has made two biostimulant products commercially available in the U.S., reporting trial returns on investment of up to 15:1 in potatoes for one of them.
The products, YaraAmplix PROCOTE OPTIMIZE and YaraAmplix OPTITRAC, follow more than 10 years of research and development, multiyear global trials and four years of U.S. field trials across diverse growing conditions and crops.
PROCOTE OPTIMIZE returns 6:1 in corn and 7:1 in potatoes in U.S. trials
PROCOTE OPTIMIZE is a biostimulant fertilizer coating designed to protect applied phosphorus and unlock phosphorus tied up in the soil. Retailers apply it directly to fertilizer granules, using Yara's proprietary PROCOTE coating technology to ensure even distribution. U.S. trials across multiple crops produced returns of 6:1 in corn and 7:1 in potatoes.
