Lallemand Plant Care launches a new granular inoculant in Canada

MONTREAL — Lallemand Plant Care announces that their new granular inoculant that combines two rhizobium strains with a plant growth promoting microorganism (PGPM), Bacillus velezensis, is available. New to the Canadian market, this PGPM tries to increase root mass and enhances phosphorus solubilization in agricultural settings.

The addition of this PGPM has created a granular inoculant that reportedly provides early season plant vigour benefits and phosphorus solubilization across a wide range of soil pH levels. “We are excited to introduce this market-leading granular inoculant to the Canadian agriculture industry,” says Scott Gray, Commercial Manager at Lallemand Plant Care. “The robust Bacillus velezensis strain was isolated from 1,800 strains for its consistent performance in thousands of lab and outdoor trials in all conditions. We predict it will quickly become the gold standard for phosphorus solubilization in North America.”

LALFIX START SPHERCIAL Granule is now available for pea, lentil, soybean, and faba bean growers. Formulated with Lallemand’s granule structure, this inoculant reportedly reduces bulk density for superior soil coverage. “At Lallemand, we work hard to support the success of growers. We are proud to bring this next generation inoculant to the Canadian market while addressing growers’ wants such as less downtime, increased rhizobium titer for a longer duration, and easier handling and application.”
