HYD AA 50

HYD AA 50 is an organic biostimulant produced from hydrolyzed collagen through the Peptionics process, supplying amino acids and short peptides that plants can absorb and utilize immediately. This grade features 50% total amino acids—with 11.5% present as free amino acids and the remainder as short peptides for a gradual release. This profile makes HYD AA 50 a dependable, foundational grade for season-long amino acid feeding across a broad range of crops and programs. Because its nitrogen is supplied in an organic, amino-acid form, it nourishes the crop while simultaneously supporting its metabolism. HYD AA 50 integrates seamlessly into both foliar spray programs and fertigation systems.

Key Benefits

• Supports nitrogen assimilation. The amino acids in HYD AA 50 feed nitrogen metabolism directly, entering through glutamine synthetase and sparing the crop the energy-costly reduction that mineral nitrate first requires.
• Eases abiotic stress. Amino acids such as proline act as osmolytes that help cells hold water and keep functioning through drought, heat, cold, and salinity.
• Feeds reliably through the season. The peptide fraction in HYD AA 50 releases its amino acids gradually, giving steady season-long amino acid supply across the program.
• Improves nutrient uptake. The amino acids in HYD AA 50 chelate micronutrients, keeping them soluble and more available for the plant to absorb.
• Encourages root development. HYD AA 50 stimulates root growth through the hormone-like activity associated with amino acid and peptide biostimulants, widening the root surface available for water and nutrient capture.

How It Works

HYD AA 50 is a protein hydrolysate: collagen broken down into amino acids and short peptides that the plant absorbs and uses ready-made. Building amino acids from mineral nitrogen costs the plant energy and carbon, a cost that rises just when the crop can least afford it, under stress and at peak growth. By supplying amino acids the crop would otherwise have to synthesise, HYD AA 50 shortens that path and frees plant resources for growth and defence.

Once absorbed, the amino acids in HYD AA 50 do several distinct jobs. They feed nitrogen metabolism directly, entering through glutamine synthetase without the energy-costly reduction that mineral nitrate first requires. Amino acids such as proline act as osmolytes and signalling molecules that help cells hold water and keep functioning under drought, heat, and salinity, while glycine serves as a building block for plant proteins and the antioxidant glutathione. The amino acids also chelate micronutrients, keeping them soluble and easier for the plant to take up. The free amino acid fraction is available immediately, while the bound peptide fraction releases gradually, so the balance between the two sets how fast the product acts.

When to Use HYD AA 50

HYD AA 50 fits standard season-long biostimulant programs.

• HYD AA 50 supports vegetative growth and canopy build through the main growing period.
• HYD AA 50 maintains amino acid supply across repeat foliar and fertigation applications.
• HYD AA 50 supports crops through routine high-demand stages across the season.

Adverse conditions slow a plant’s own amino acid synthesis at the very time its demand for them is highest; supplying ready-made amino acids through HYD AA 50 covers that shortfall and keeps growth on track.
