Dry bean
Dry beans are an important crop in Brazil, providing an alternative protein source to meat. There are two main varieties of beans grown Phaseulus (Carioca and Black) and Vigna (Caupi and Macaçar). As with soybeans, flower and pod loss can be important factors in determining yield. By applying biostimulants that increase calcium mobility within the crop, such as Plant Impact's products VeritasTM or FortalisTM, yield uplifts can be achieved.
