COUNTRYWIDE SUMMARY:
2

YIELD INCREASE VS CONTROL : 1,3 Ton/ha
AREA:
Limpopo
Ohrigstad
APPLICATION:
D-Coder NPro5, Fertiactyl Starter, Fertileader Kaleo
CROP: Irrigated wheat
RESULTS: Control Timac
6,8 8,1
FARMER: Will disclose upon request
SUMMARY:
Comments from farmer: “Big difference in root
development. Hair roots more pronounced
than those of the control. Shorter plants
with the result of better stability with heavy
grain. Skepel: Timac 84% vs 74% Control

Control
Timac
3,5 7,15
SUMMARY:
The control and Timac area were severely
impacted by both frost and a virus. The
target yield was approximately 9 ton/
ha, and although both areas failed to
reach the target yield, the Timac area
outperformed the control area under
these stressful conditions

Timac Wheat Trial (Marblehall)
SUMMARY:
The Farmer is very satisfied with the product
because of it’s “controlled release” of
nutrients. He feels that his plants where
nourished during the entire season
because of the availability of the nutrients.

IN A NUTSHELL
What is plant nutrition?
Plant nutrition is the supply of essential elements, divided into macro, secondary
macro micronutrients in:
• sufficient quantities;
• correct ratios; and
• plant-available forms;
...for the plant to reach its maximum yield.
What is specificity?
Specificity is the technological advancement of our products that set them apart
from other conventional commodities available on the market.
Why do we believe in specificity?
Because it represents the core values of the Group, which is to continually research
the factors influencing plant growth, to develop the best solutions to overcome
limiting factors experienced by farmers around the world, and to improve crop
performance on a global scale, whilst looking after the environment and thereby
working with nature. This is possible thanks to 60 years of research and development,
engineering, and industrial prowess, as well as flexibility and the collaboration with
internationally recognised universities and institutions around the world that share
our values. To achieve all of this and focus our efforts even further, Daniel Roullier,
the founding father of the Roullier Group and Breton industrialist, built an 8000-m 2
centre in Saint-Malo, France that hosts 400 researchers and engineers that focus on
achieving and improving our values as a group through research, development,
and innovation.

PRODUCT PERFORMANCE ON WHEAT
The interactive single-granular fertiliser. The D-Coder technology represents
an evolution in fertilisation. It is a fertiliser that protects plant nutrients and
stimulates biological action in the soil and stimulates root growth. Plant
nutrients are protected by our unique D-Coder technology that releases
plant nutrients according to the demands of the plant, providing optimal
plant nutrition irrespective of the soil pH.
Fertiactyl products are liquid stress regulators for early plant development.
They may be applied in-furrow, banded (2x2), broadcast, side-dressed,
or applied through soil irrigation. These products contain our patented
Fertiactyl complex, which is comprised of plant extracts, organic acids and
nutrients.
Fertileader products are liquid foliar stress regulators for the later plantgrowth
stages. The product line contains our patented Seactiv complex,
comprised of plant-based extracts and various formulas of plant
components. Fertileader products are used for stress resistance, boosting
root and foliar biomass and ensuring optimal reproduction and final
maturation.

TIMAC AGRO
PRODUCTS ON
WHEAT
1 ST APPLICATION: D-CODER
The application of D-Coder occurs at establishment by means
of band placement. The technology protects the nutrients
in the granule from leaching, fixation and volatilization. The
PES complex helps for optimal root growth to ensure good
establishment. The FMR complex stimulates soil microbial
activity to improve nutrient availability. Apply D-Coder for
optimal establishment and nutrient uptake.
2 ND APPLICATION: FERTIACTYL
Fertiactyl is a stress regulator that helps the plant with optimal
growth in its life cycle. The Fertiactyl complex improves
the uptake of nutrients into the plant by improving root
development. Apply Fertiactyl as a seed treatment or during
the tillering stage with the first herbicide to ensure stress
resistance and promote optimal growth.
3 RD APPLICATION: FERTILEADER
The Seactiv complex in Fertileader reduces stress in the plant,
increases the uptake of nutrients and improves photosynthesis
to promote optimal growth. Fertileader can be applied as
a foliar spray anywhere from tillering to soft dough stage, to
enhance stress resistance which will optimize grain fill and
quality.
