Azotic provides Envita®, a biofertilizer that uses a patented, non‑GMO strain of Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus to fix atmospheric nitrogen inside plant cells, delivering a season‑long internal nitrogen supply. Available in liquid and dry formulations for foliar or seed‑treatment use, Envita can boost yields when combined with standard nitrogen rates or maintain yields while reducing synthetic fertilizer inputs, and is certified organic for both conventional and organic farms.

Problem
Crop producers rely heavily on synthetic nitrogen fertilizers, which are costly, environmentally damaging, and often applied inefficiently, leading to excess runoff and greenhouse gas emissions. Many farms lack a sustainable method to provide a continuous, plant‑available nitrogen source that matches crop demand throughout the growing season.
Solution
Azotic offers Envita®, a biofertilizer based on a patented, naturally occurring strain of Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus (Gd) that colonizes plant tissues and fixes atmospheric nitrogen directly within the plant’s cells. The product is supplied in multiple formulations—including liquid and a stable dry version—allowing flexible integration into existing fertilizer programs via foliar or seed‑treatment applications. By delivering nitrogen where it is needed, Envita can either boost yields when used alongside standard nitrogen rates or maintain yields while reducing synthetic fertilizer inputs. The technology is OMRI‑listed, compatible with most herbicides and fungicides, and certified organic, making it suitable for conventional and organic farming systems. Field trials across a wide range of crops (e.g., maize, soy, wheat, rice, cotton, potatoes, canola, and emerging perennial crops) have demonstrated consistent yield benefits and a strong return on investment.
Target Audience
Primary customers are commercial growers and agronomists managing row crops, cereals, oilseeds, and specialty crops who seek to improve nitrogen use efficiency, as well as organic producers requiring certified biofertilizer solutions.
