With amylofol® for foliar or soil application, it is already possible today to achieve the EU targets for 2030 in agriculture and reduce the use of pesticides by up to 50% and fertilizers by up to 20%.
Positive side effects of our starch-based biopolymer amylofol®are increased plant growth and improved yield. By naturally breaking down in the soil, our biopolymers form a valuable nutrient basis for microorganisms associated with improvement in soil structure and fertility. We have proven these results s in extensive worldwide field trials. Our products are certified for conventional and organic farming.

The application of our products significantly increases the wash-off resistance of pesticides, foliar fertilizers, and biostimulants, even in heavy rain of up to 100mm. Due to the slow-release effect, active ingredients are released to the plant continuously and at the amount needed. The amount of pesticides applied can be reduced. As a result, plants are less stressed, the applied plant protection products work more efficiently, and resistance pressure can be reduced. Abiotic stress is reduced, stomatal conductance increases, as well as plant growth and plant vitality. Our products are made from renewable, non-GMO raw materials and are fully biodegradable. In the soil, they ensure an increase in water storage capacity while at the same time reducing leaching of plant protection products and fertilizers into deeper soil layers. As a result, the groundwater is less polluted. On very sandy, dry soils, amylofol® forms a thin film, binds dust particles, and helps reduce wind erosion.
CONVENTIONAL AGRICULTURE
amynova products have been successfully used for leaf, soil, and seed treatments. With our products, farmers, hop growers, winegrowers, and all those involved in agriculture can produce more efficiently, sustainably, and environmentally friendly.
ORGANIC AGRICULTURE
Our biological adjuvants made from renewable raw materials are FiBL-listed and have been used successfully in organic farming throughout Europe for years. As an example, the amount of copper fungicide (or number of copper fungicide applications) can be reduced without losing treatment efficiency when applied with our binding agent amylofol®.
amylofol® A AS A FORMULATION AID
Are you a manufacturer of crop protection products and would like to use amynova products as a formulation aid? Please get in touch with us or: please contact us! Our R&D team will work with you to develop customized solutions.
Our products prevent leaching from the soil when combined with pre-emergence herbicides and liquid fertilizers. At the same time, our products increase the water holding capacity .
When applied together with amylofol® , biostimulants are protected from being washed away by heavy rain, and a long-term effect of the biostimulant can be achieved through the natural slow-release effect of amylofol.
With SEEDCOVER®, conventionally used synthetic products for seed treatment can be replaced, and nutrient depots can be formed. Abrasion can also be significantly reduced.
EROSIONCONTROL® can be applied to humus or humus-poor soils combined with pre-emergence herbicides and liquid fertilizers. It can also be used to reduce wind erosion and bind dust.
In foliar applications of plant protection products, fertilizers, and biostimulants, CROPCOVER® ensures that the plant is evenly wetted, combined with a wash-off resistance of up to 100mm, whereby phytotoxic effects are excluded.
