Bermudagrass and Zoysiagrass Plots

Pct ground cover in sprigged bermudagrass and zoysiagrass plots over time. Treatments included high or low soil NPK fertility with or without nanoparticle application (+NP, -NP). Error bars represent standard error of the mean. Plot line colors indicate unique treatment combinations.


The Aqua-Yield® adjuvant product enhanced nutrient uptake, subsequent growth and establishment of zoysia grass sprigs, allowing for faster coverage and less applied fertility (Adams et al., 2019. DOI: 10.1002/agg2.20006).

NanoPhos® applications on Perennial Ryegrass

Having trouble getting adequate nutrient levels in your turf tissues? Micronutrient accessibility in soils as well as N-P-K mobility can lead to challenging stress response conditions. Aqua-Yield® nutrition products leverage revolutionary technology to deliver next-generation, high-efficiency nutrition to your cool season or warm season turfgrass, even after low-rate applications.

NanoPro® Improves blight control on turf

Similarly NanoPro® adjuvant addition allowed for nearly identical snow mold control following a 30% reduction in recommended rate of Delaro and Medallion autumn turfgrass fungicide treatments, compared to full-rate standard fungicide application. This is a fantastic tool to improve efficiency of your spring green-up and recovery from winter snow cover.

Zoysiagrass establishment was faster and more robust when NanoRise® (previously called “Aqua-Yield nutritional conditioner”) was added to a standard fertility blend at high and low rates.

NanoPro® Improves Selective Broadleaf Herbicide Control

University of Tennessee Martin

A replicated trial was conducted at the University of Tennessee Martin in 2017. NanoPro® was added to Escalade® 2 selective broadleaf herbicide and the result was 30% improved weed control at a reduced application rate (60% of regular rate). Escalade 2 herbicide contains 2,4-D, Fluroxypy, and Dicamaba.

NanoPro® Improves Glyphosate to Control White Clover

University of Tennessee Martin 

A replicated trial was conducted at the University of Tennessee Martin in 2016. NanoPro® was added to a generic glyphosate herbicide and the result was 60% more white clover control compared to glyphosate alone.

NanoPro® Improves Contact Fungicide for Turf Greens

Norwegian Institute of Bioeconomy Research, Grimstad Norway

The effectiveness of fungicide applications on annual bluegrass were improved with the addition of NanoPro®. When Fungicides were reduced to 70% and 40% of the regular application rate, adding NanoPro® maintained disease control similar to the 100% application rate. Replication and statistical analysis was used to confirm treatment effects using overhead photographs of the site. . or more details about this study, contact Landon Bunderson (Landon@aquayield.com)
