Calcium is often used as a 'stress buster', but calcium is better used to fix stress symptoms rather than as a cure for stress. Here we discuss the relationship between stress and calcium in plants,...

Most crops around the world achieve only a fraction of their potential, so closing the yield gap between potential yield and average yield whilst reducing inputs and pollution is the key challenges for food security

Levity Crop Science develop pioneering agricultural products that improve crop production, reduce waste, increase yields and earn farmers money.
We are industry pioneers of bio-active crop enhancements, we drive new science and technology forward. Alongside agronomists and growers worldwide, we develop and deliver products that exceed current expectations in agriculture. Working intelligently with plants’ natural systems , our technologies enhance production without environmental damage.
We create alternative products that work harder than the competition in terms of both crop yield and waste reduction. Our scientists and partners are world leaders, working directly with you and sharing a united passion for improving crop production.
We are driven to improve the way food is grown, and its effect on the environment. Our products are scientifically proven to work and not mass produced just because they fit the ‘economies of scale’ model. We care about the difference our research is making.

In both Europe and North America the season started with poor weather, and potatoes were planted much later than usual. Markets are unforgiving and growers will be still asked to produce the right size tuber for the market. This will be challenging, as potatoes grow...
Silicon has been demonstrated to have wide-ranging beneficial effects on many crops. A cursory glance at the literature shows how silicon can assist with growth, stress tolerance, insect pest resistance and disease resistance. However, the actual results of applying...
Avocado crops, particularly Hass type varieties, can suffer from having small fruit. This is associated with stress which increases the proportion of small fruit on the tree. Here we explore why stress creates this problem and explore ways to improve fruit size and...

At Levity we believe that science can help farmers produce better crops with lower inputs. We have four main areas of research expertise and these research programmes are helping to change the way farmers grow crops.
Levity’s science is helping to make fertiliser more effective. By understanding how plants pick up and metabolise fertiliser we are able to create products with much lower rates – better for farmers and for the environment.
The weather is the single biggest driver in crop yield and quality. Levity scientists use knowledge of how plants react to adverse growing conditions to create products that help them cope with stress – giving farmers new ways to maintain good yield and quality even in bad growing growing conditions.
Fruit and vegetable growers need to meet high standards of crop quality, Levity develop products that improve taste, shelf life and colour and that reduce physiological disorders. Framers using Levity products have better marketable yields with more production meeting the best grades .
Healthy plants need lower amounts of pesticides. Crop nutrition has a large impact on crop health and Levity’s research is helping to develop products that make plants more healthy, reducing the amount of disease.
We research and develop game changing technologies for a changing world.

At Levity we have a vision. By understanding plants, protecting the environment and lifting crop yileds we are helping to improve the way crops are grown.
Our unique appraoch to product development has produced products used by growers around the world meet the challenges they face with products developed especially for their needs.
