EDEN BIOSCIENCE has developed a revolutionary new type of plant care technology called Harp-N-Tek, the foundation for creating a wide range of products that improve plant health and production. Products that utilize Harp-N-Tek are based on naturally occurring proteins called harpins that enhance a plant's own growth systems and natural defense mechanisms to ward off attacks by common diseases, insects and environmental stresses. This revolutionary new approach to growing stronger healthier crops is based on the understanding that most plants have their own complex growth and defense systems that are activated only when certain events occur in nature, such as a pathogen attack.
Recently, researchers have begun to recognize the critical role these natural systems play not only in alerting the plant to danger, but also in determining overall plant health, growth and survival. While scientists have known of these systems for some time, the extent of their impact has largely gone unrecognized because there have been only limited ways to access these innate plant mechanisms with consistent and reliable results that are not toxic to the plant.
Studies have found that plants treated with Harp-N-Tek based products stimulate plant systems that lead to increased root mass, leaf area, fruiting and early maturation. Harp-N-Tek products have no direct effect on pests and pathogens but simply "send a message" to the plant to activate its own growth and defense systems to protect itself. The result is healthier plants and higher and better quality yields in a wide variety of crops.
Messenger simultaneously enhances a plant's own growth systems and natural defense mechanisms to ward off attacks by insects, common diseases and environmental stresses.
Messenger exhibits a high degree of environmental safety and, once applied, degrades rapidly and leaves no detectable residue.
Messenger was registered by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in April 2000, and is now approved for sale in the United States, Mexico, China, and several European countries on a wide range of crops.
