Rice
Since 2018, Salicrop has conducted Rice Paddy field trials in Indian villages within a 10 Km radius in East Godavari District in Southern India. ​
The area is known for its saline soil due to nearby fisheries and ponds.
​
The trial was conducted and monitored by NITSAN sustainable development lab at Tel Aviv University in Israel, and Vijayavahini Charitable Foundation, powered by Tata Trusts in India.
Trails show a clear improvement of productive tillers in the treated farms of 15%-19%, depending on the sample area.
Wheat
Among abiotic stresses, salinity stress especially in the arid and semi-arid regions of the world is one the major threats to the sustainability of wheat production.
About 36% of the world's population is dependent on wheat as a staple food. ​Among various field crops, wheat is more sensitive to salinity.
Various climate models projected that wheat production could decrease by 6% due to stressful environments.
​
Salicrop conducted few successful wheat field trials in fields that faced Salinity, heat & drought stress. Yield Increase: 5% - 15%
Onion
Salicrop recently conducted a successful demonstration on onions in Yotvata, showcasing a remarkable three-tiered increase in yields ranging from 10% to 39%. This significant improvement highlights the effectiveness of Salicrop's seed treatment technology in enhancing crop resilience and productivity under challenging conditions. The demonstration not only proves the technology's potential but also strengthens Salicrop's position as a leader in innovative agricultural solutions, capable of addressing key issues such as heat and salinity stress.
Tomatoes
Since 2021, Salicrop's treatments have been implemented in Israeli tomato fields, resulting in an average yield increase of 10%-25%, showcasing the significant impact of the technology. With successful implementations in countries like Spain, Senegal, Ukraine, and India, these advancements have led to collaborations with major agricultural producers. This ensures that Salicrop's technology is commercially available and plays a vital role in addressing heat stress and salinity stress, significantly contributing to sustainable agriculture and food security worldwide.
