How we apply plant-derived molecules

Resilient, stress-free crop

We have successfully applied plant-derived molecules in our solutions to simulate oxidative stress in plants. While not harmful for plants, these molecules trigger an antistress response in the plant. This process results in the production of extra antioxidants, as well as faster recycling of used antioxidants.

Oxidative stress in plants

Stressors can occur in many forms, but all have oxidative stress as a result, which is an accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Through the application of our technology, these ROS by-products can be reduced, in order to restore the balance to keep the crop healthy and prevent cell damage.

Natural defence

All plants have a natural defence to combat oxidative stress and feature a wide range of compounds known as antioxidants. A few well known antioxidants are uric acid, vitamins (C, A and E), carotenoids and glutathione. These antioxidants can reduce ROS and thus reduce the potential damage caused  by ROS.

Rhizosphere

Our technology can also contribute to the overall health of the rhizosphere and an increase in new roots is observed in young, old, healthy, and unhealthy crops.

Easy-to-use, natural solutions

At CHV we strongly believe that our technology should be accessible to our community in the form of relevant solutions which are effective, easy to apply, and designed to provide growers with peace of mind!

Since our technology is based on using active molecules, we do not rely on living organisms or undefined organic mixtures. We make sure that our products only contain the molecules necessary for achieving the desired results.

This approach results in user friendly products that can be applied through any irrigation system, without negative side effects.
