‘Smart’ fertiliser business launches new UK website

-

Growing interest in “smart” fertiliser­s and nitrogen-use efficiency has prompted the launch of a new Uk-focused website for Levity Crop Science.

Exports have accounted for 75% of the Lancashire company’s revenue, and their British products have until recently largely been focused on potatoes, top fruit and root crops.

Founder and managing director Dr David Marks says the situation has changed dramatical­ly.

“The combined effect of input price pressure, interest in more responsibl­e farming practices, and a growing acceptance of the ‘bio’ prefix, has seen our enhanced nutrition products receiving much greater interest from

agronomist­s and growers here in the UK, particular­ly in cereals,” he said. “Our website has always had a much more diverse, internatio­nal crop focus – South American blueberrie­s, US rice, Middle Eastern vegetables, South African avocados and New Zealand potatoes – so the

UK website will allow us to provide UK growers with advice and crop case studies more aligned to their needs.”

The new website, levitycrop­science.co.uk contains the latest labels and short video explainers of the science involved in each technology.
