The 4^th Annual Bionutritional Summit brought together members of the Green Industry who share common goals of providing more sustainable products and services. The Keynote Sponsor, Civitas, launched their latest offering which like Holganix, provides superior results while requiring less chemical inputs.

Sustainability for Holganix is all about using biology to allow the soil ecosystem to work more effectively so that nutrients are used more efficiently. CIVITAS WEEDfree BRAND Concentrate is the first, hybrid selective herbicide with microtechnology that delivers performance with less active ingredients, no offensive odor and a fast response rate. Essentially, Holganix is using biology while Civitas is using technology; both to allow for sustainable solutions for the green industry.

Lawn care providers continue to be challenged to deliver results with less impact on the environment, while still remaining price competitive and profitable. Companies like Civitas and Holganix were ahead of the curve and developed products to be first to market to address these needs. Lawn care providers that implement greener products are able to differentiate their businesses from their competitors while achieving greater results, creating the ultimate win/win strategy for their company.

In addition to the agronomic benefits, CIVITAS WEEDfree BRAND Concentrate’s fast action absorption and reduced active ingredient formula results in no offensive odor and visible injury on weeds within 12 hours. In addition, the white emulsion produced when sprayed identifies areas that have been treated, eliminating duplication of efforts and reducing call-backs.

“CIVITAS WEEDfree BRAND Concentrate doesn’t just get the job done, it improves the way in which lawn care operators and landscapers work”, said Reinie Drygala, Manager, Lawncare & Agriculture Sales, Intelligro. “The unique technology leveraged provides an opportunity for those looking to differentiate and grow their businesses based on affordability, efficacy and being first to market with innovative technology rooted in resource maximization.”

Initial testing shows that when combining Holganix and Civitas WEEDfree show some exciting results. Further testing will be continued in 2016 and we will keep you posted on the results.  

With the Bionutritional Summit’s focus on “Growing Roots, Minds and Businesses”, it is clear why Civitas was a key participant.
