Is Agrizest For You?
Agrizest is designed for growers who want to improve crop performance, fruit quality and seasonal returns in:
🥝Kiwifruit
🍇Vineyards
🍎Apples and other tree crops
🌨️Orchards and vineyards under seasonal stress
✔️Orchards and vineyards where packout, consistency and quality matter
If you are looking for a smarter way to support healthy canopy development and resilience, to drive optimal crop quality and yield, Agrizest is built for that job.
Why Growers Choose Agrizest
Agrizest helps your crop do more of what it is naturally built to do - grow, repair & defend itself under pressure, and optimise fruit production.
That means stronger canopy development, better fruit quality, improved resilience to stress, and more consistent performance through the season.
Growers use Agrizest when they want to:
🍎 Improve fruit size, colour and flavour
🌱 Strengthen canopy growth and plant health
🌨️ Support resilience to environmental stress
🍒 Reduce variability across the block
💵 Reduce rejects and increase returns per hectare
How Agrizest Works - And Why its Different
Agrizest does not feed the crop or force weak growth. It activates the plant's own repair, growth and defence systems through the phenylpropanoid pathway - a natural system linked to resilience, fruit quality and plant performance.
-
There is no other product “just like Agrizest”. The technology was developed by us and has been tested and proven in multiple districts, seasons, and crops.
Agrizest is an entirely new technology (an elicitor of the phenylpropanoid pathway) that enables a big leap forward in productivity.
Phenylpropanoids are naturally produced by all plants & are responsible for plant and fruit quality characteristics e.g. lignin and suberin to harden cells and produce crunchier fruit, flavanoids for improved flavour, anthocyanins for high colour and coumestrol and other oils to repair damage. Phenylpropanoids support the repair, growth and defence systems of plants.

The science of phenylpropanoids and the plant response to Agrizest is covered in our paper which has been published in a peer-reviewed scientific journal https://rdcu.be/cGRgc.
🌱 Activate
→ Switches on repair, growth and defence system and the phenylpropanoid cascade.
🌿 Grow
→ Stronger canopy development and plant health
→ Improved leaf size and cane development
→ Reduced biennial bearing
→ Greater resilience to pest, disease and environmental stress.
🍇 Harvest
→ Better fruit size, colour and flavour
→ Improved Brix and consistency
→ Fewer rejects and better storage
→ More consistent yields year-on-year.
The Result:
Stronger canopies. Better fruit. Higher Returns
Fewer rejects. Consistent performance year-on-year
Low cost per hectare. Maximum Return on Investment.
Why Agrizest Is Different
Not a fertiliser — no NPK value, doesn’t simply add nutrients
Not a hormone — doesn’t force weak growth or fruit that doesn’t store well
Not a microbial product — no product variability, survival or storage issues
No residue. No withholding. No GM.
An elicitor of the phenylpropanoid pathway that activates the plant’s own systems — improving resilience, fruit quality and yield.

Boost Early Growth With Primazest
For best results, use Primazest early season, then transition to Agrizest for crop development and quality.
Primazest is designed for:
Early spring growth
New plantings and grafts
Pre-production vines and trees
Best used when you want to:
→ Encourage rapid canopy establishment
→ Reduce stress from copper and spring conditions (cold/wind/frost)
→ Support energy production during early growth
Result: Stronger early growth → better crop potential later
Grower Testimonials
What Growers See in the Field
Guy Cumming, Gisborne
“The transformation has been quite remarkable. I’m scared not to use it now”.
Mike Lane, Clive River Vineyard, Hawke's Bay
The leaves are shinier and bigger, and the grape yields and ripeness are improved. "We're talking about 3 to 4 per cent riper, which is significant"
Persimmon Growers, Auckland.Waikato
“Our persimmons look the best I’ve seen them look in 37 years. The leaves are beautiful dark green and glossy. We have got the least rejects we’ve had in all our years of exporting. Fruit quality is excellent.”
Paul Christey, Apples, Waikato
“The crop this year is much cleaner from mites , woolly apple aphid, leaf curling midge, I have not seen any codling moth or leaf roller damage , insect damage is insignificant throughout the whole orchard.”

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Agrizest is a unique New Zealand-made elicitor that activates the plant's natural repair, growth and defence systems to improve resilience, fruit quality and productivity in woody crops and vines.
-
Agrizest is designed for tree crops and vines including kiwifruit, grapes, apples, avocados, blueberries and other fruit crops.
-
No. Agrizest is not a fertiliser, hormone, microbial product or generic biostimulant. Agrizest was developed by us right here in NZ and is unique in the market - an elicitor of the phenylpropanoid pathway activating the plant's own natural systems rather than directly feeding or forcing growth.
-
Agrizest activates the phenylpropanoid pathway - a natural plant system triggering a cascade of compounds linked to repair, growth, resilience and fruit quality. This helps the plant respond better to stress and supports stronger crop performance.
-
Growers use Agrizest to support stronger canopy growth, improved plant and vine health, better fruit quality, increased resilience to pest, disease and environmental stress, and higher orchard gate returns.
-
Agrizest is applied as a spray at 1 litre per hectare as part of a standard orchard or vineyard programme and with standard spray equipment.
-
A typical programme is 4 sprays per season. In kiwifruit, this is usually 2 sprays 2-3 weeks before flowering and 2 sprays immediately after flowering.
-
A standard 4-spray programme costs around $400 + GST per hectare.
-
Yes. Agrizest is compatible with most commonly used orchard sprays. Compatibility should still be checked before tank mixing. Do not mix with copper, hormones or spraying oil.
-
No. Agrizest leaves no residue and has been shown to improve fruit finish while reducing physiological problems such as misshapen fruit.
-
Agrizest is approved by BioGro as an input for organic production. It is also classified by MPI (ACVM Group) as exempt from registration, is approved for use on Sustainable Winegrowing NZ-certified vineyards. and for kiwifruit it is included on the Zespri Allowed Other Compounds list.
-
Yes. Agrizest has been tested in multiple commercial-scale trials across different orchards, districts and production seasons, with quality and yield outcomes measured using commercial harvest and packout data.
