  • Expands root system
  • Enhances nutrient and water uptake
  • Promotes plant robustness and vigor

How Mycorrhizae Work

Spore germination

This mutually beneficial symbiosis between mycorrhizal fungi and plant roots begins with spore germination.  

Root Penetration

The thread-like structures, called hyphae, penetrate the roots, creating an internal network of vesicles and arbuscules for nutrient exchange. 

Hyphal Network Expansion

Thanks to the carbon supply produced by enhanced photosynthesis, the hyphae create a network in the soil, increasing the nutrient and water absorption area of the plant up to 100 times. 

Increased Nutrient and Water Absorption

This vast network acts as a second root system, enabling the plant to reach nutrients and water previously inaccessible in the soil. 


 

Key Benefits of Mycorrhizae for Crops

Curious to see how AGTIV® REACH™ can make a difference in your crops? Learn how mycorrhizae deliver healthier plants, enhanced growth, and improved productivity, enabling you to boost overall yield, quality, and uniformity. Experience  increased fertilizer and water utilization, enhanced root mass, flower production, and plant size, along with heightened tolerance to abiotic stresses such as drought. Benefit from reduced transplant shock, improving cultivation efforts and maximizing crop productivity.
