Winnipeg, Canada (December 8, 2020): XiteBio Technologies Inc. is pleased to announce that XiteBio® SoyRhizo® and XiteBio® PulseRhizo® premium liquid inoculants have been approved for organic agriculture use.

XiteBio® SoyRhizo®, the liquid soybean inoculant, and XiteBio® PulseRhizo® , the liquid pulse inoculant, can now be used by farmers growing organic crops across Canada. Both XiteBio® SoyRhizo® (a.i. Bradyrhizobium japonicum) and XiteBio® PulseRhizo® (a.i. Rhizobium leguminosarum) inoculants are powered by XiteBio‟s unique & proprietary AGPT® (Advanced Growth Promoting Technology) formulation that helps crops to fix the atmospheric nitrogen (N) into plant available form. Farmers growing these organic crops can now use these distinctive inoculants as their essential production tools.
