Springfield, Ill. — Brandt said on Dec. 8 that it has signed a new distribution agreement with Verdesian Life Sciences LLC, Cary, N.C. It grants Brandt the exclusive right to sell and market Verdesian’s patented Steric chemistry in the Turf and Ornamental and eastern U.S. agricultural markets under the Brandt Reaction® product line name. In addition, Brandt will market a number of other key Verdesian products from the legacy Northwest Agricultural Products portfolio (excluding Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Nevada, Utah, Montana, and Wyoming). The distribution agreement is effective immediately. Products will be available at select retailers and distributors throughout the U.S. Brandt currently sells and markets Brandt Sterics in the western U.S. The company said Brandt Sterics have a strong following in the west, and that product demand is continuing to expand south and east. It says the chemistry improves nutrient uptake and efficiency of phosphorus, potassium, and sulfur by delaying the reaction and tie up of nutrients in the soil so they remain available to the plant for a longer period of time. It says they are especially beneficial in high alkaline and acidic soils where nutrient tie up is common.
