BioWorks launches BioRain Ax

BioWorks, a provider of biological crop protection and plant health solutions, has launched BioRain A_x, a microbial inoculant designed to mitigate the effects of limited water environments while improving overall plant health and potential yield.

In environments where water is limited, BioRain A_x helps plants maintain crop growth, vigor and productivity through increased water access and retention, the company said. BioRain A_x supports commercial production in outdoor specialty crops, ornamentals, greenhouses, nurseries and other high-value crops.

BioRain A_x is powered by a targeted consortium of beneficial microorganisms that colonizes the rhizosphere of the plant to improve soil structure, increase water retention and enhance nutrient availability. This creates a stronger, deeper root system that enables more efficient water and nutrient uptake, the company said.

With flexible soil and irrigation applications, BioRain A_x integrates easily into existing crop protection programs for superior performance across a wide range of crops and growing conditions.  

“Growers need products that work in real-world conditions and help them protect yield when access to water is limited,” said BioWorks General Manager Chris Rose. “BioRain A_x was developed to give growers a practical, easy-to-use tool that supports plant health, improves water-use efficiency and helps crops perform through drought stress.” 

Active ingredients: Priestia megaterium, Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus paralicheniformis

Formulation: Liquid 

Size: 1 gallon
