◆ Product Range
Five Products. One Programme.
Each product addresses a specific agronomic challenge. Together, they form a complementary programme designed to reduce synthetic inputs while maintaining yield.
GREEN MIRACLE
EU RegisteredAnti-transpirant · Drought stress management
Reduces water loss through stomata during heat and drought stress events. Protects yield under adverse conditions without chemical intervention.
GRO CARE
UK ManufacturedMycorrhizal fungi · Phosphorus uptake
Establishes beneficial fungal networks in the root zone, significantly improving phosphorus and micronutrient uptake efficiency.
HAVN
UK ManufacturedAmino acid complex · Nitrogen use efficiency
Supports nitrogen assimilation at cellular level, reducing the total nitrogen input required to achieve equivalent yield targets.
HAM
SFI AlignedHumic acid + vitamins · Soil health
Improves soil carbon content, water retention, and microbial diversity. Aligned with Sustainable Farming Incentive (SFI) programme objectives.
5 MIN
Pending DeterminationYeast PGPM · Nutrient mobilisation
Plant growth-promoting microorganism that mobilises locked soil nutrients, improving availability without additional fertiliser application. Currently subject to ongoing regulatory review in the UK.
Full Technical Data
Technical documentation, SDS sheets, trial data, application rates, and purchasing information available on request from Astravar.
◆ Market Context
The Case for BioStimulants in 2026.
Input Cost Pressure
Nitrogen fertiliser costs remain elevated following 2022–2024 supply disruptions. The T Stanes programme runs at an indicative ~£90/ha — full comparative costing available on request.
Regulatory Direction
The UK Sustainable Farming Incentive (SFI) actively supports reduced synthetic input programmes. CBAM implementation from January 2027 will add further cost pressure to imported fertilisers. The direction of policy travel is clear.
Soil Health Imperative
Biostimulants support long-term soil biology and carbon content — increasingly valued under environmental land management frameworks and tenant farming agreements.
