NACHURS Rhyzo-Link® PE is a concentrated microbial solution developed to enhance bulk liquid fertilizers, improve phosphorus utilization, and create a more active root-zone environment.
Its proprietary Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacteria technology combines multiple strains of Bacillus tequilensis and Bacillus velezensis. These selected microorganisms establish beneficial relationships with crop roots and help create soil conditions more conducive to plant growth.
As the Bacillus strains colonize the root surface, they produce a complex sugar-and-protein matrix known as a biofilm. This biological coating helps maintain close interaction between the microorganisms and the developing root system, supporting nutrient utilization and greater activity within the soil microbiome.
Improved plant-microbe relationships can support crop growth, nutrient efficiency, and productivity under both normal and stressful conditions. Rhyzo-Link PE is particularly useful where crops experience abiotic stresses such as drought or salinity.
The flexible liquid formulation can be added to bulk fertilizer, applied in-furrow, placed in a 2×2 band, used as a sidedress or foliar treatment, or delivered through compatible irrigation systems.
Microbial Composition
NACHURS Rhyzo-Link PE contains:
- Bacillus tequilensis: 50,000,000 CFU per milliliter
- Bacillus velezensis: 50,000,000 CFU per milliliter
- Total Microbial Count: 100,000,000 CFU per milliliter
- Total Microbial Count: Approximately 378.5 billion CFU per gallon
At the 2-pint-per-acre rate, Rhyzo-Link PE supplies approximately 94.6 billion colony-forming units per acre.
How PGPR Technology Works
Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacteria are beneficial microorganisms selected for their ability to interact with crop roots and support plant development.
The Bacillus strains in Rhyzo-Link PE colonize the root surface and form a protective biological matrix called a biofilm. This interaction helps:
- Increase microbial activity near the root
- Improve phosphorus utilization
- Support nutrient uptake
- Create a more favorable root-zone environment
- Strengthen plant responses to environmental stress
- Support crop growth and productivity
Ideal Applications
- Bulk liquid fertilizer enhancement
- In-furrow starter programs
- 2×2 fertilizer placement
- Sidedress applications
- Foliar applications
- Compatible irrigation systems
- Phosphorus fertility programs
- Programs using NACHURS Bio-K® fertilizers
- Conventional starter fertilizer programs
- Crops exposed to drought or salinity
- Fields requiring greater nutrient-use efficiency
- Soil-management programs focused on microbial activity
Bulk Liquid Fertilizer Rate
When enhancing bulk liquid fertilizer, maintain an effective Rhyzo-Link PE rate of 16–32 fluid ounces per acre.
Mix thoroughly and maintain enough carrier volume to achieve consistent distribution throughout the treated area.
Starter, 2×2 and Sidedress Rate
Apply 1–2 pints per acre.
Mix with enough water or compatible liquid fertilizer to achieve the desired coverage and uniform application.
Foliar Application Rate
Apply 1–2 pints per acre with sufficient carrier volume to provide thorough and uniform crop coverage.
Foliar application timing should be based on crop requirements, growth stage, environmental conditions, and professional recommendations.
Use with Non-Bio-K Starter Fertilizers
When using Rhyzo-Link PE in-furrow with a non-NACHURS Bio-K starter fertilizer such as 6-24-6, 10-34-0, or 9-24-3:
- Apply at least 16 fluid ounces per acre of Rhyzo-Link PE
- Add 64 fluid ounces per acre of NACHURS K-fuel®
Follow all product labels and confirm physical and biological compatibility before field application.
Mixing and Compatibility
Rhyzo-Link PE may be combined with compatible liquid fertilizers and other crop-production products. Because fertilizers, pesticides, water sources, and application conditions vary, always conduct a proportional jar test before large-scale mixing.
Maintain adequate agitation to ensure uniform microbial distribution. Always read and follow every pesticide and fertilizer label used in the tank mix.
Storage Guidelines
- Store in the original container
- Keep the cap tightly secured
- Store in a dry location
- Maintain a storage temperature between 40°F and 95°F
- Protect the product from direct sunlight
- Follow the label for handling and shelf-life requirements
Proper storage is essential for maintaining microbial viability and product performance.
Why Growers Choose NACHURS Rhyzo-Link PE
Applied fertilizer is only valuable when crops can use it efficiently. Phosphorus can become less available because of soil chemistry, environmental conditions, and limited biological activity around the roots.
NACHURS Rhyzo-Link PE introduces selected PGPR Bacillus strains that interact with crop roots and support more efficient phosphorus utilization. Its concentrated formulation fits into bulk fertilizer, starter, sidedress, foliar, and irrigation programs without requiring a separate biological application system.
Rhyzo-Link PE should supplement a complete fertility and crop-management program. Always follow label directions and consult an authorized NACHURS distributor or agronomist for crop- and field-specific recommendations.
Activate the root zone. Improve phosphorus utilization. Build stronger plant-microbe relationships.
