Durum Wheat
Durum wheat (Triticum durum) is an autumn–winter cereal characterized by awned spikes and vitreous kernels rich in proteins and gluten. It thrives in temperate climates and well-drained soils and is primarily used for semolina production in the pasta industry. Proper agronomic management requires close attention to nitrogen fertilization and fungal disease control.
Germination for durum wheat
During germination, the seed absorbs water and activates the metabolic processes required for radicle and shoot development. Environmental stresses such as drought, compacted soils, or nutritional imbalances can negatively affect emergence and seedling vigor. Uniform and vigorous germination is essential to ensure adequate field establishment and optimal yield potential.
SPRINTALGA® stimulates germination by providing precursors needed for enzyme and protein synthesis involved in seed metabolic activation. The bioactive compounds support cell division and embryo elongation, promoting faster and more uniform germination.

Herbicide Stress for durum wheat
During the early stages of development, durum wheat may show stress symptoms from chemical weed-control treatments, which can reduce photosynthetic efficiency and slow-down vegetative growth. Supporting the crop during this sensitive phase is crucial to limit herbicide-induced stress and maintain a regular growth pattern.
SHIFT® assists plant metabolism, helping the crop recover more rapidly from herbicide effects and regain vigor and functionality. Its application helps preserve yield potential and increases the plant’s ability to cope with both herbicide treatments and other field stress.

Yield for durum wheat
Durum wheat yield depends on the plant’s ability to develop dense, well-formed spikes with a high number of kernels per head. Photosynthetic efficiency and nutrient availability during vegetative growth and grain filling are therefore decisive.
PHYLEN® stimulates physiological processes associated with growth and grain filling, promoting uniform development and increasing productive biomass. Its use contributes to improved final yield and higher grain quality.

Quality of durum wheat
Protein content is a key factor determining the technological quality of durum wheat semolina and pasta. Protein synthesis depends on balanced nutrition, nitrogen metabolism, and the plant’s physiological condition during grain development.
FOLICIST® stimulates physiological processes that improve nitrogen assimilation and metabolism, helping optimize protein levels in wheat grains. Its consistent use enhances grain quality, increasing both protein content and commercial value.
