As the agricultural sector continues to evolve, the need for innovative solutions that promote sustainability and crop resilience has never been more critical. In this context, the collaboration between New Edge Microbials (NEM) and global leader Lallemand represents a new era for growers across Australia and New Zealand.
Launching three advanced biological products, this partnership aims to enhance crop performance while helping growers address increasingly challenging environmental conditions.
The three products — LALSTIM® OSMO SP, LALRISE® MAX WP, and LALRISE® START SC — provide growers with innovative tools to improve plant health, resilience and productivity.LALSTIM® OSMO SP is a plant care solution designed to help crops withstand environmental stresses including heat, drought, salinity and cold conditions.
As a natural osmoprotectant, it supports plant water regulation and cellular stability during periods of stress. By improving photosynthesis, nitrogen metabolism and nutrient movement within the plant, LALSTIM® OSMO SP helps crops maintain performance when conditions become challenging.
LALRISE® MAX WP uses MYCONNECT® TECHNOLOGY, incorporating beneficial mycorrhizal fungi to support nutrient uptake and improve drought tolerance across a range of crop systems.
The fungi form a relationship with plant roots, extending the root system through a network of fine hyphae. This allows plants to explore a greater volume of soil and access more water and nutrients.
Supporting root development helps improve:Nutrient and water uptake efficiencyPlant establishment and early growthStress tolerance during difficult seasonsLong-term crop performance.
LALRISE® START SC is a plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria designed to support young plants during establishment.
By improving root development and nutrient availability, it helps plants establish faster and supports stronger growth, yield potential and crop quality.
Using biological solutions early helps crops:At NEM, our commitment to innovation is driven by collaboration with leading scientists, research organisations and agricultural experts worldwide.
Working alongside Lallemand, a global leader in microbiological solutions, we continue to develop technologies that help growers improve plant resilience while supporting sustainable farming practices.
The NEM team has worked closely with growers, agronomists and industry partners to understand the evolving needs of Australian agriculture. These insights have shaped the introduction of internationally proven biological technologies to the local market.
As farming continues to adapt to changing environmental conditions, biological solutions provide growers with new opportunities to improve efficiency, protect yield potential and build resilience.
The launch of these products represents a step forward in sustainable agriculture — helping growers unlock nature’s potential and achieve stronger outcomes.
