Valena™ FLOW  Novel Foliar-Applied Plant Growth Technology

Valena™ FLOW is a cutting-edge foliar plant growth technology designed to enhance plant growth and address zinc deficiency. It is a flowable suspension made from a distinctive blend of 1,3-ß-glucan, sourced from Kemin’s proprietary strain of unicellular microalgae, Euglena gracilis, and is fortified with zinc micronutrient from zinc oxide.

For optimal results, apply Valena FLOW as a foliar spray when the first leaves are visible. This early application ensures a robust foundation for plant development, leading to improved plants, fruits and vegetables quality and preventing potential yield loss. It is recommended to include Valena FLOW in the crop’s nutritional regimen during the early stages of active growth.
