Orion products provide growers sustainable agriculture solutions to achieve improved crop quality and increased yields. Providing humic substance based plant nutrients that are chelated and complexed with amino and organic acids, and incorporating naturally occurring plant elicitors, our products are environmentally friendly and organically based. Each is specifically formulated to provide the optimum level of nutrients that plants require for optimum performance. Our products are made with the finest natural materials and blended scientifically to assure quality and effectiveness. Continuous research and development keeps Orion on the cutting edge of plant nutrition. Working with laboratories in plant nutrition, agronomy, plant physiology and microbiology, Orion is associated with world-renowned scientists in humic substances and plant nutrition.
Central to Orion nutrient products is enhanced nutrient efficiency, translating into improved economies for growers as they have to purchase less mineral nutrient with the materials applied are more plant available.
Orion products contain proprietary amino acids/peptides, flavonoids, and hormone precursors specifically associated with humic substances that play a key and vital role as sources or 'signals' to stimulate a range of beneficial soil microorganisms, including VA- and ecto-mycorrhizae. A balanced and abundant soil microbial population is critical to optimum plant performance, moisture and nutrient effeciency. Specific plant elicitors are added to our nutrient blends to signal desired plant growth performance.
Certain Micronutrients such as iron, zinc, copper, manganese, etc. are often fixed in the soil and made unavailable to plants. Chelates used by Orion are naturally occurring substances, compounds that hold nutrients from soil fixation and release them on uptake for plant use. Natural chelates are components such as organic acids and amino acids that are readily recognized by the plant and the nutrients released then be used for energy by the plant.
