Protecting Plants from Stress

persist paf’s unique blend of Organic acids and phenols improve plants’ natural stress responses.

Academic Support

From the Research:

” … a low dose of acetic acid significantly increased plant survival after 3–4 weeks of water withholding.”

From the Research:

“… the exudation of organic acids at the root–soil interface can improve soil mineral acquisition and toxic metal tolerance.”

From the Research:

“… the biosynthesis of phenolic compounds in plants during abiotic and biotic stress increases adaptation of plants in harsh environments.

From the Research:

“… roots from wheat seeds presoaked with wood vinegar can initiate an early defense mechanism to mitigate drought stress.”

From the Research:

“… application of PA resulted in increased growth when applied alone and in different combinations with other inputs.”

Plants are under constant threat from biotic and abiotic stresses.  Improving resilience is vital to crop yield stability in a changing climate.

Persist PAF Bio-liquid

In response to stress, plant roots often exude organic acids — The same organic acids found in Persist PAF Liquid.

These organic acids, along with phenols found in Persist PAF, regulate crucial physiological functions in plants to help resist biotic and abiotic stresses, including drought, heat, cold, salinity, pathogen, insect, UV, and heavy metal stress.

Persist Premium Biochar

One pound of ultra-porous Persist™ biochar has a surface area of over 25 football fields. Water adheres to these surfaces to retain moisture in soil up to six times longer. The microscopic pores also serve as a habitat for microbes, creating a microbe mega-factory in your soil.

Persist PAF Bio-liquid

Persist™ PAF is a unique liquid blend of organic acids, phenols, and natural compounds. While biochar provides shelter for microbes, PAF provides the food. Recent crop trials, including strawberry, pepper, and soybean, show significant improvements in nutrient uptake and yield.

Target the Root Zone with Micronized Biochar.

Micronized biochar for liquid fertigation, drip irrigation, and foliar spray systems.

  • Carefully screened particles less than 75 microns (0.075 mm) designed for liquid suspension and application.
  • Enhances dispersibility of biochar in soil for more precise nutrient delivery while reducing loss from volatilization.
  • Micronized particles further improve water retention, nutrient availability, and microbial activity in soils.
