Productivity and sustainability are key challenges in modern agriculture. Enter Arevo, a biotechnology company that is breaking new ground with its latest innovation, Arevo Booster for soy. This novel seed treatment, developed over years of rigorous research, offers soybean farmers an edge by enhancing yield sustainably.
A Breakthrough in Seed Treatment
Arevo Booster for soy marks the company’s debut in agricultural solutions. The product is rooted in a simple but powerful concept: delivering an organic nitrogen source directly to seeds.
“Launching our first agricultural product is a significant milestone for Arevo,” says CEO Niklas Åström.
“Years of development and testing have gone into Arevo Booster. It boosts growth without disrupting the plant’s natural nitrogen fixation process, ensuring nitrogen is delivered exactly where it’s needed while preventing environmental leakage.”
The product’s key ingredient, arginine — a naturally occurring amino acid — forms the backbone of its innovative design. Applied as a seed treatment, Arevo Booster is a stable, non-microbial biostimulant that is non-leaching and environmentally friendly, offering a sustainable approach to nitrogen supplementation.
Proven Results in Performance
The development of Arevo Booster was spearheaded by Dr. Regina Gratz, Head of Product Development at Arevo. Her vision was to create a solution that enhances root growth and plant health from the start. Years of laboratory research, greenhouse trials, and extensive global field testing culminated in the product’s release.
Field studies have shown remarkable results. Soybean plants treated with Arevo Booster demonstrate an 8% increase in plant quality, measured through normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), and a 7% improvement in early plant development compared to conventional methods. These enhancements translate into healthier, more resilient crops capable of withstanding environmental stresses and optimizing nutrient uptake.
“We’re proud that Arevo Booster strengthens plants against challenges like drought and poor soil,” says Gratz.
“It’s a major step forward in sustainable farming, helping farmers improve yields while reducing reliance on additional inputs.”
A Sustainable Edge
Arevo Booster offers clear economic advantage to soybean growers, starting with a proven yield increase of 4–6%. On top of the yield gain, Arevo Booster lowers cultivation costs. By keeping nitrogen localized at the seed, the product delivers nutrition exactly where the seedling can access it most easily, dramatically decreasing the need for expensive nutrient application. Meanwhile, the targeted nitrogen delivery minimizes nutrient runoff — a significant environmental concern in conventional farming practices.
“We’ve designed Arevo Booster with sustainability as its guiding principle,” explains Gratz. “This seed coating helps farmers cultivate more efficiently while protecting the environment too.”
Seamless Integration for Modern Farming
Designed for easy application, Arevo Booster is compatible with standard seed treatment equipment, ensuring seamless integration into a wide range of existing farming systems. Having undergone rigorous testing in Europe and the U.S., the product meets the demands of modern agriculture, demonstrating consistent results across diverse growing conditions.
“This product is designed with farmers in mind,” emphasizes Åström. “Its ease of use and measurable results make it a practical solution for growers looking to improve productivity while supporting sustainability. It is a step toward a smarter, more sustainable future for agriculture through a farming innovation that combines higher productivity with environmental stewardship.”
A Vision for the Future
While Arevo Booster for soy represents a significant step forward, it’s just the start. Arevo is actively expanding its portfolio, developing treatments for a range of crops to address the global demand for efficient and sustainable farming solutions.
“The common thread in all our innovations is a commitment to advancing agriculture while protecting the planet,” says Gratz. “Arevo Booster is just the beginning of our mission to revolutionize farming practices.”
