NanoPro + PGRs on Apples 🍎😎

Jenny Phillips, Director of Marketing • Oct 17, 2023

Cosmic Crisp apples, a relatively recent addition to the world of apple varieties, have taken the culinary world by storm with their exceptional taste and unique attributes. Created through a careful breeding program at Washington State University, these apples are a delightful blend of sweet and tart flavors, making them a favorite for snacking and baking. What truly sets Cosmic Crisp apples apart is their remarkable ability to resist browning, keeping them fresh and appealing for longer periods once cut. With their striking dark red skin and a crisp, juicy texture, they have quickly become a beloved choice for apple enthusiasts.


Growers are seeing exceptional results adding NanoPro® with PGR and crop protection programs on Cosmic Crisp apples. Results concluded that adding just 6 oz/ac of NanoPro:

  • Improved fruit set with 38% more fruit
  • Improved the uptake of Kudos with 33% reduced shoot length

Aqua-Yield® was excited to partner with Beck's again this year and trial some of our nanoliquid® products through their PFR (Practical Farm Research) program. Our 2-year multi-location trials show how our technology helps growers take their inputs to the next level. We strive to become PFR Proven next year!

NanoPro is the Aqua-Yield® flagship carrier adjuvant for crop protection applications. Add NanoPro to any Plant Growth Regulator (PGR) product to increase plant uptake and amplify the end result for crops. PGR products mimic natural plant hormones that either promote or slow plant growth. The chemical structure of PGR products is highly synergistic with Aqua-Yield nanotechnology.
