XiteBio® OptiPlus®
Dual Action Inoculant for Soybeans
XiteBio® OptiPlus ® is a versatile, multi-action liquid soybean inoculant that can be applied in-furrow and
comes in a convenient, low volume, ready-to-use package.
XiteBio® OptiPlus® adds an optimum number of nitrogen-fixing rhizobia to soybeans to enhance nodulation while also increasing plant available soil-fixed phosphorous, iron and calcium.
XiteBio® OptiPlus ® combines XiteBio’s AGPT® (Advanced Growth Promoting Technology) bacterial inoculant platform with yield-enhancing PGPR (Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria). The easy-to-use XiteBio® OptiPlus ® liquid formulation goes beyond traditional inoculants by working with native soil rhizobium instead of competing with them, and can be tank-mixed with compatible liquid fertilizers or water for easy in-furrow application.
