Synergy Nutrient System
by VitaNova
Maximise your fertiliser dollars with VitaNova’s Synergy Nutrient System
Want your fertiliser budget to deliver more?
Granular fertilisers alone waste money due to low efficiency, leaving nutrients out of reach and hurting soil health.
VitaNova’s Synergy Nutrient System (SNS) optimises your existing fertiliser budget by reallocating around 5% to Seedsy, our proton-rich phosphorus and micronutrient seed primer, and 10-20% to Blitz, our proton-rich foliar fertiliser, alongside your soil applications.
By combining seed, soil, and foliar treatments, SNS creates powerful synergies that boost nutrient uptake, water efficiency, and yields for cereals, legumes, corn, and rice across Western Australia, South Australia, and Australia’s east coast.
SNS can deliver in the range of 10-30% yield increases equating to 5-10X ROI for Seedsy, and 3-5X ROI for Blitz.
SNS gets more nutrients to your crops, gradually reducing granular inputs to save costs while boosting profits.
Granular fertilisers alone fall short due to inefficiency
Research shows granular fertilisers struggle in Australia’s diverse soils:
Nitrogen (N): Only 30-50% reaches crops, with up to 70% lost to volatilisation or leaching, worsened in WA’s sandy, acidic soils or the east coast’s wet conditions (University of Minnesota Extension, 2023).
Phosphorus (P): Just 10-30% – often 10% in SA’s calcareous or WA’s acidic soils – is available, fixed by calcium in high-pH soils or iron/aluminium in acidic soils (Soil Science Society of America, 2022).
Potassium (K): Around 30-40% makes it to plants, with losses higher in sandy or high-rainfall areas like WA or Australia’s east coast
(International Plant Nutrition Institute, 2021)
These losses hit your bottom line.
In Western Australia’s acidic soils (pH <5.0), phosphorus binds with iron/aluminium, while sandy textures increase leaching.
South Australia’s calcareous soils (pH >7.0) lock phosphorus with calcium.
The east coast of Australia’s mixed soils – acidic, neutral, or alkaline in Queensland, New South Wales, and Victoria – face fixation or runoff, reducing organic matter and fertility.

The solution —
Synergy Nutrient System (SNS)
SNS integrates Seedsy (seed), Blitz (foliar), and soil applications (granular fertilisers) to create a synergistic approach that maximises nutrient delivery, water use, and yields for cereals, legumes, corn, and rice across WA, SA, and Australia’s east coast.
Seedsy: jumpstart your crops
What it is:
Seedsy is a proton-rich seed primer with phosphorus and micronutrients (e.g., zinc, copper), applied pre-planting to enhance germination.
How it works:
Built on seed priming principles, Seedsy’s chemistry supports:
Early vigour: Priming promotes faster germination and stronger seedlings, with studies showing 20-30% better early growth (Crop Science, 2020), critical for cereals and legumes.
Root growth: Protons and phosphorus drive deeper, denser roots, improving interception of soil-applied granular fertiliser in acidic (WA), calcareous (SA), or mixed (east coast) soils.
Rhizosphere optimisation: Seedsy enhances ion and nutrient exchange across root membranes, making phosphorus and micronutrients more accessible.
Microbe support: Root exudates feed soil microbes, boosting nutrient cycling and fertility (Plant Physiology Journal, 2023).
Why it matters:
Seedsy sets crops up for success, maximising granular fertiliser uptake and delivering 5-10X ROI.
Blitz: precision boost for peak yields
What it is:
Blitz is a proton-rich foliar fertiliser with phosphorus and trace elements, sprayed on leaves for direct delivery.
How it works:
Designed using proton-driven nutrient principles, Blitz’s chemistry supports:
High-efficiency uptake: Foliar delivery significantly outperforms soil applications, bypassing fixation in SA’s calcareous soils or leaching in WA’s sandy soils. Plant Physiology Journal, 2023
Deficiency correction: Blitz delivers zinc and copper to fix yield-limiting gaps, strengthening disease resistance for healthier cereals and rice. Plant Physiology Journal, 2023
ATP production: Protons enhance ATP (plant energy), with studies showing foliar nutrients can boost growth by 15-25% and resilience to drought or heat. Plant Physiology Journal, 2023
Soil phosphorus release: Blitz stimulates organic acid release, freeing fixed phosphorus. Soil Science Society of America, 2022
Why it matters:
Blitz provides mid-season nutrition, driving yields as well as a 3-5X ROI with minimal waste.
Synergistic Benefits
Combining Seedsy, Blitz,
and soil applications creates a
cycle of efficiency.
Seedsy primes roots to capture soil nutrients early, setting a strong foundation.
Blitz delivers precise foliar nutrition, reducing reliance on inefficient soil inputs.
Soil applications are enhanced by Seedsy’s roots and Blitz’s organic acid release, improving overall uptake.
This synergy ensures more nutrients reach your crops, reduces losses, and supports healthier plants and soils across diverse conditions, complemented by improved water use.
Why SNS delivers
-
Synergistic Nutrition
Combining seed (Seedsy), soil, and foliar (Blitz) applications enhances nutrient uptake, water use, and crop performance, creating a powerful, integrated system.
-
Targeted Nutrient Efficiency
Seed and foliar nutrients outperform granular’s 10-50% uptake, reducing waste and ensuring more of your fertiliser budget reaches crops.
(Soil Science Society of America, 2022) -
Improved Water Use Efficiency
SNS promotes deeper roots and resilient plants, boosting water use efficiency by 15-20% in low-rainfall zones like WA, SA, and the east coast.
(Journal of Experimental Botany, 2021) -
Higher Yields
More nutrients and water fuel stronger cereals, legumes, corn, and rice.
-
Better Returns
Expect 5-10X ROI from Seedsy and 3-5X ROI from Blitz, proven in trials.
-
Healthier Soil
Less waste and more organic matter ensure long-term productivity.
