We are proud to share our latest research publication:

Advancing Silicon Nutrition in Rice: Root Dynamics, Foliar Delivery, and Soil Silica Replenishment

This comprehensive white paper explores how silicon plays a transformative role in rice agronomy—from reinforcing plant structure to stimulating beneficial root exudation and microbial activity in the rhizosphere.

🧪 Key topics include:

✅ Si uptake and translocation mechanisms

✅ Foliar nano-silica vs. traditional soil-based sources

✅ Rhizosphere chemistry and microbial synergy

✅ Crop-specific comparisons: rice, wheat, maize, and sugarcane

✅ 📊 Field trial results from West Bengal demonstrating up to 69% increase in soil available silica using ECO OK foliar nano-silica

🌱 The paper demonstrates how foliar-applied colloidal silica not only boosts crop resilience and yield, but also replenishes soil silica—aligning agronomic performance with long-term soil health.

This is a call to all agronomists, crop scientists, and sustainability advocates: let’s reimagine silicon not as a passive element, but as a regenerative tool in sustainable rice farming.
