HYD AA 60

HYD AA 60 is a high-load organic amino acid biostimulant designed for sustained feeding across the growing season. Produced through the Peptionics process, this grade carries a full 60% total amino acids. These are delivered mostly as short peptides that release gradually, along with 10% free amino acids for an early boost. This high total load combined with a lower free fraction makes it ideal for a steady, season-long supply. Because its nitrogen is supplied in an organic, amino-acid form, it nourishes the crop while simultaneously supporting its metabolism. HYD AA 60 is a great fit for foliar spray and fertigation programs across fruit, vegetable, and field crops.

Key Benefits

• Supports nitrogen assimilation. The amino acids in HYD AA 60 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 steadily across the season. The short peptides that make up most of HYD AA 60 release their amino acids gradually, supporting steady, sustained biostimulation across the season.
• Improves nutrient uptake. The amino acids in HYD AA 60 chelate micronutrients, keeping them soluble and more available for the plant to absorb.
• Encourages root development. HYD AA 60 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 60 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 60 shortens that path and frees plant resources for growth and defence.

Once absorbed, the amino acids in HYD AA 60 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 60

HYD AA 60 fits programs that call for steady amino acid feeding across the season.

• HYD AA 60 supports vegetative growth and canopy build through the main growing period.
• HYD AA 60 maintains amino acid supply across repeat foliar and fertigation applications.
• HYD AA 60 supports crops through periods of sustained high demand such as rapid growth and fruit fill.

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 60 covers that shortfall and keeps growth on track.
