At Rainbow Bio, science and innovation go hand in hand with real-world agronomic research. Every solution we bring to farmers is rigorously tested under real agricultural conditions to ensure effectiveness, reliability, and sustainability.

That’s why, together with Farmer Adviser and Researcher at Agroschimi, PhD Alfredo Jose Alves Neto, we are conducting an in-depth field study in Corbélia, Brazil. This research focuses on biostimulant applications on soybean crops, analyzing their impact on plant health, disease resistance, and overall yield performance.

The Importance of Field Testing

Agriculture is ever-evolving, and adapting to its challenges requires data-driven, scientifically validated solutions. In this study, we are not just testing the number of biostimulant applications but also comparing different biostimulant formulations and their application stages.

By closely monitoring biometric parameters such as plant height, leaf retention, and foliar disease incidence, we aim to refine our biological solutions to deliver stronger, healthier crops. Every product we recommend undergoes comprehensive field trials before reaching the hands of farmers.

Early Findings and Observations

The research, conducted as part of the 2024/2025 growing season, has already revealed significant differences in plant health and disease resistance. During the initial assessments, noticeable variations were observed in plant height, leaf retention, and foliar disease levels across different test groups. These findings indicate that the type of biostimulant used and the timing of its application play a crucial role in crop performance.

Farmers visiting the trial site in Corbélia can witness firsthand how these solutions impact soybean cultivation under real farming conditions. By collecting and analyzing data throughout the season, we aim to provide farmers with practical insights that will help them make informed decisions about biostimulant use.

From Research to Real-World Impact

For Rainbow Bio, research is not just about testing products—it’s about creating meaningful solutions that align with the needs of farmers and the realities of agriculture. Through studies like this, we bridge the gap between scientific innovation and practical application, ensuring that every solution we develop contributes to healthier crops and long-term agricultural success.

The study will continue throughout the season, with final results shared with both the farming community and Rainbow Bio partners. Because at Rainbow Bio, science drives sustainable growth. 🌱
