Newton: The Natural Seed Treatment Redefining Crop Resilience
Getting crops off to a strong start has never been more important. With rising input costs, unpredictable weather patterns, and increasing pressure to farm more sustainably, growers need seed treatments that deliver more than just a chemical head start. That's where Newton comes in – a 100% plant-derived bio-stimulant seed treatment that enhances early crop development and builds long-lasting resilience, naturally.
Newton promises vigorous crop establishment without added stress – proven season after season.
What is Newton?
Newton is a natural, 100% organic bio-stimulant, formulated from plant-sourced signalling peptides. These active compounds are scientifically proven to regulate and stimulate critical plant growth and defence processes, right from the moment the seed hits the soil.
Designed for use across all arable systems – whether conventional, organic or regenerative – Newton helps establish stronger roots, more uniform emergence, and greater tolerance to environmental stress. It's suitable for a wide range of crops, but especially impactful in winter and spring cereals, where early establishment and root development are essential for yield success.
Why Choose Newton?
In trials across the UK, Newton has demonstrated:
- Faster, more uniform crop emergence – by up to several days
- Up to 10% yield increase in spring cereals
- Up to 5% yield increase in winter cereals
- Stronger root systems for better nutrient and moisture access
- Improved tolerance to drought and other abiotic stressors
- Greater margin protection in challenging growing conditions
Whether you're trying to reduce synthetic inputs, improve crop survival during dry spells, or boost emergence in difficult seedbeds, Newton offers a proven, natural solution.
The Science Behind Newton
1. Accelerated Germination and Emergence
Rapid, even emergence is key to successful crop establishment – but this early stage is highly sensitive. Germination relies on stored seed energy, hormonal signalling, and favourable environmental cues. Newton contains plant signalling peptides that actively trigger these growth pathways, helping to wake dormant seeds and stimulate uniform emergence.
With Newton, you don't just get a quicker start – you get a head start!
2. Enhanced Root and Shoot Development
Root mass is often the difference between a struggling plant and a thriving one. Newton's signalling peptides stimulate both primary root elongation and root hair development, giving seedlings early access to more water and nutrients.
At the same time, Newton supports the healthy growth of shoots and true leaves, helping the young plant compete with weeds and build photosynthetic capacity from the outset.
3. Built-in Stress Resilience
Stress during establishment can have lasting effects on plant performance. Drought, temperature fluctuations, and nutrient lock-up can all take their toll on seedling development. Newton helps combat these issues by triggering natural defence signals in the plant, which promote tolerance to abiotic stresses.
Growers report noticeably better crop performance under dry and variable conditions – a benefit that's becoming more important with every season.
Sustainable, Regenerative, and Fully Approved
Newton is not only effective – it's also environmentally responsible. Made exclusively from plant-based ingredients, Newton is fully approved by:
- Organic 玩偶姐姐 & Growers (OF&G)
- The Soil Association, under organic standard 2.5.2
This makes it an ideal choice for organic growers, regenerative farming systems, and anyone looking to reduce reliance on synthetic fertilisers and treatments.
Newton also works in harmony with soil biology, supporting the natural microbial networks that underpin soil health – a critical factor for long-term productivity.
Value in Use: What Growers Gain with Newton
Growers using Newton are seeing more than just crop benefits – they're seeing business gains too. By supporting faster establishment and stronger stress resilience, Newton helps:
- Maximise crop establishment ahead of winter
- Reduce establishment risk in difficult seedbeds
- Improve nutrient and moisture utilisation
- Increase crop survival during drought conditions
- Support sustainable and regenerative practices
- Boost final yield and margins
And because it can be used on both organic and conventional seed, Newton offers exceptional flexibility, no matter what your farming system looks like.
Easy to Apply, Proven to Perform
Newton is available as a ready-to-use seed treatment and can be applied on-farm or by your local seed processor. It works as a standalone bio-stimulant or alongside conventional seed treatments such as vibrance Duo, with no known compatibility issues. That means no disruption to your current establishment plans – just an extra edge where it matters most.
With multiple seasons of replicated trial data and real-world grower experience, Newton has proven its worth across diverse UK soils and weather conditions.
The Natural Choice for UK Growers
At a time when every seed drilled must perform, Newton offers UK growers a science-backed, sustainable, and yield-enhancing seed treatment option. It's natural. It's effective. And it's built for the future of farming.
Whether you're growing winter wheat, spring barley, or exploring a more resilient approach to arable production, Newton is the natural choice to:
- Get crops up and away faster
- Build resilience from the roots up
- Support sustainable farm business decisions
Switch to Newton today and give your crops the head start they deserve.
Less stress for your plants. Less stress for you.
