Talisman® is a blend of pidolic acid and R100 biostimulants combined with foliar nutrients designed to increase yield. The biostimulants’ complementary modes of action and the balanced, broad-spectrum nutrients increase yield and quality in a variety of crops. In challenging conditions, such as drought, Talisman® protects against abiotic stress, protecting the photosynthetic equipment and increasing plant resilience. By alleviating the symptoms of stress, Talisman® helps to protect yield. In healthy conditions, Talisman® drives crop performance by increasing nutrient use efficiency and protein production, maximising the metabolic processes of the plant.
In healthy conditions, pidolic acid increases chlorophyll concentration and nitrogen assimilation, R100 boosts cytokinin concentrations and the combination powers growth. Absorption of foliar nutrients through the waxy cuticle is increased by R100 and dimethyl sulphone, helping drive yield.
In challenging conditions, Talisman® can be used at the onset of abiotic stress (e.g. drought, heat, rapid growth) to help alleviate symptoms. The pidolic acid maintains chlorophyll concentration and green leaf retention, reducing toxic ammonia build up and associated leaf yellowing. In stressed conditions, R100 and dimethyl sulphone ensure foliar nutrients are readily available to maintain the plant and prime it for recovery.
In 50 independent trials conducted by Universities, Research Institutes and Contract Trials Organisations, the average response to Talisman® was +5.8% increase in yield, typically representing a 5:1 return on investment.
Wide range of crops: OSR, maize, potatoes, sugar beet, sunflowers and cereals
Talisman® is suitable for a wide range of crops, including oilseed rape, maize, potatoes, sugar beet, sunflowers and cereals. Trials have shown yield and quality improvements across multiple crop types.
Apply during periods of active growth to drive yield in healthy crops, or at the onset of abiotic stress (such as drought or heat) to help alleviate symptoms and protect yield.
Pidolic acid improves chlorophyll concentration and nitrogen use efficiency, while R100 boosts cytokinin levels and enhances the uptake of foliar nutrients through the waxy cuticle. Together, they maximise plant metabolism and resilience.
Dimethyl sulphone improves nutrient penetration through the cuticle, ensuring faster and more efficient delivery of essential foliar nutrients to the plant tissues.
In stressed conditions, Talisman® maintains green leaf retention, keeps chlorophyll levels high, and ensures nutrients are readily available, helping plants sustain metabolic function and recover more quickly.
Across 50 independent trials, Talisman® delivered an average yield increase of 5.8%, often representing a return on investment of around 5:1.
Talisman® can be sequenced with Status® and Nutrino Pro but should not be mixed with phenoxy acid herbicides such as mecoprop, MCPA, 2,4-D, or dicamba.
Yes. Repeated applications throughout the season can maximise benefits, especially when used proactively before or during stress events.
By enhancing nitrogen assimilation and protein production, Talisman® makes better use of available nitrogen, supporting both yield and grain or tuber quality.
By improving nutrient efficiency and protecting yield under stress, Talisman® helps reduce waste, optimise input use, and support environmentally responsible crop production.
