Harbest
Biostimulant
Harbest is a unique biostimulant containing ureic nitrogen and water soluble calcium oxide, for use in cereals, especially milling wheat.
It is made up of 15% w/w ureic nitrogen and 12% water soluble calcium oxide. By providing nitrogen in its readily available amine form, plants conserve energy that is otherwise used to convert ammonia or nitrate into plant proteins. This energy can then be used for growth, protein formation, and grain filling.
When applied to milling wheat at milky ripe stage, Harbest provides the crop with nitrogen in the amine form, boosting grain protein by up to 1%.

Benefits
Boosts grain protein
Shown to boost grain filling with increased protein and carbohydrate content, leading to higher yields and better quality for milling. This is a result of N being supplied to the crop in the amine form.
Slows the rate of senescense
Harbest increases the accumulation of photo assimilates, slowing the rate of senscense
Improved root growth
Permanent development of the root, which leads to a better use of the nutrients available, and a vigorous aerial system.
Crops
Harbest can be applied to a range of crops including the following:
Arable
- Wheat
- Barely
- Rye
- Triticale
