Acadian Plant Health is a division of Acadian Seaplants Limited™ – the largest independent marine plant harvesting, cultivation, and extraction company in the world. Acadian is an international leader in sustainable, science-based biological solutions for high-value as well as broad-acre crops. The company is committed to launching patented innovative products, with a focus on sustainability and regenerative agriculture. Acadian Plant Health products are used in over 100 crops in more than 80 countries worldwide.
All of APH agricultural products are derived from Ascophyllum nodosum, the most highly researched marine plant that grows exclusively in the inter-tidal zone of the North Atlantic Ocean. This species of marine plant was specifically selected, as it is comprised of a complex array of bioactive compounds with stress mitigating properties. Our Ascophyllum nodosum extracts modify the physiological processes in plants that enable them to effectively mitigate abiotic stress. Results include improved root growth and plant establishment, increased nutrient uptake, environmental stress tolerance and enhanced quality and yield.
Our expertise in both productivity and sustainability is what makes us stand out from other biostimulant companies. We are built to serve the crop protection, biostimulant, and fertilizer industries with our unique organizational structure of crop input professionals and scientists – who all understand the standards within these industries.
