Soil health
Evaluating how neem-based organic fertilizer can contribute to soil condition, organic matter, nutrient availability and crop performance over time.
FIELD TRIALS & DEVELOPMENT
Where product development meets the field.
AgriNeemix products are developed with the conditions of real farming in mind. Field testing helps us see how formulations perform, how farmers use them and what needs to improve.
FIELD DEVELOPMENT
Test. Observe. Learn. Improve.
WHY FIELD TESTING MATTERS
The field reveals what the laboratory cannot.
01
Real farming conditions
Soil, rainfall, timing, crop type and application practice all affect how an agricultural product performs.
02
Farmer experience
Farmer feedback helps us understand usability, handling, application and how a product fits into existing farming practices.
03
Better product decisions
Trial observations help determine what should be kept, changed, retested or developed further.
FARMER ENGAGEMENT
Development shaped by field experience.
Rijona has engaged farmers in testing agricultural inputs and gathering feedback on product use. The process helps us understand how formulations interact with actual farming conditions rather than relying only on assumptions.
Farmer feedback also helps identify practical issues such as ease of application, timing, handling and the way products fit into existing farming practices.
The intention is to continue expanding this work as AgriNeemix progresses through further development, validation and regulatory processes.
TEST RESULTS
What our early testing has shown.
50%
Up to reduction in nitrogen losses
Rijona's testing of neem-coated urea recorded nitrogen loss reductions of up to 50% under the tested conditions.
30%
Up to crop-yield improvement
Testing also recorded yield improvements of up to 30% under the conditions in which the product was evaluated.
Neem
A natural nitrification-management pathway
The neem coating is designed to slow nitrogen transformation, keeping more nitrogen available for plant uptake instead of being lost from the soil too quickly.
WHAT WE ARE TESTING
Different products. Different questions.
Nitrogen retention
Testing whether neem coating can reduce nitrogen losses, improve nutrient-use efficiency and support stronger crop performance.
Root & phosphorus nutrition
Exploring a fertilizer pathway focused on phosphorus availability, root establishment and broader soil fertility.
Botanical crop protection
Evaluating neem and plant-based formulations for their potential role in protecting crops from susceptible insect pests.
Agricultural application
Developing and evaluating concentrated agricultural neem oil as part of Rijona's wider crop-protection portfolio.
Practical usability
Gathering information about application, handling, timing and farmer experience so that product development reflects actual use conditions.
FIELD DEVELOPMENT CYCLE
From formulation to refinement.
01
Prepare
Select the formulation, crop context and question the trial is intended to investigate.
02
Apply
Introduce the product under practical field conditions using appropriate application methods.
03
Observe
Record product performance, crop response and practical observations from the field.
04
Refine
Use trial results and farmer feedback to inform the next formulation or testing cycle.
Field evidence informs what we build next.
