Build stronger, more resilient vines from the ground up. AgriSea's seaweed-based nutrition supports canopy establishment, flowering, berry development and post-harvest recovery through the seasonal demands of New Zealand viticulture.
Cold-brewed seaweed nutrition engineered for the seasonal demands of New Zealand viticulture, from spring bud burst and canopy establishment through to harvest and post-harvest vine recovery.
AgriSea's seaweed-based biostimulant products have been helping New Zealand and Pacific horticultural growers improve crop performance and resilience for over 25 years. Made from sustainably harvested New Zealand brown kelp (Ecklonia radiata) and cold-brewed using our proprietary process, AgriSea preserves the natural spectrum of bioactive compounds that support vine performance, root function and fruit quality.
Viticulture rewards precision. Strong spring canopy establishment, reliable flowering and fruit set, consistent berry development through summer, and effective post-harvest vine recovery all depend on keeping the vine physiologically balanced through periods of high demand. AgriSea helps provide that foundation by supporting root-zone biology, nutrient availability and plant resilience when timing matters most.
AgriSea Foliar Nutrition has been shown to cause a significant freezing point depression at the bud level, by as much as 1.5°C to 2°C
Thicker, more resilient cuticles and larger greener leaves

Not all seaweed extracts are equal. Many commercial products are produced using alkaline or heat-based hydrolysis. These methods are efficient for volume, but they can compromise the biological integrity of sensitive compounds that matter in crop response.
AgriSea's cold-brewing process uses no harsh heat, chemicals, freezing or drying. Instead, Ecklonia radiata is processed at ambient temperature through mechanical blending, hydration and gentle pressing so that naturally occurring compounds remain in a functional state.
Practical guidance for using AgriSea with grapevines at different stages.
Follow these recommended application rates and timing for optimal vineyard performance.
Note: These are general guidelines. Actual application rates may vary based on vine age, vineyard conditions, soil type, and specific challenges. For specific advice tailored to your vineyard, consult with an AgriSea field consultant.
AgriSea products can be applied in multiple ways to suit your avocado orchard management system.

AgriSea's cold-brewed Ecklonia radiata products support root function, canopy establishment, flowering, berry development and post-harvest vine recovery. They are designed to complement a sound nutrition programme and help the vine operate more efficiently through key pressure points in the season.
Grapevine performance depends heavily on timing, root activity and the vine's ability to manage stress without losing momentum. Preserving sensitive seaweed compounds in their natural state helps deliver a broader biological signal than heavily processed extracts, particularly important during flowering, fruit set and the post-harvest recovery phase.
Yes. AgriSea is designed to complement, not replace, a sound vineyard nutrition programme. It works best when integrated with good soil management, irrigation and crop monitoring.
No. AgriSea is a biostimulant programme, not a pesticide or fungicide. It should be used as part of a broader vineyard management system rather than as a substitute for disease, pest or nutrition planning.
The highest-leverage periods are typically pre-bud burst soil activation, flowering to fruit set, summer berry development through véraison, and post-harvest vine replenishment. Exact timing should always be matched to vine stage, variety and local seasonal conditions.
Yes. AgriSea's orchard and vineyard-focused products are BioGro Organic certified and Non-GMO certified, making them suitable for organic and premium production systems where those certifications apply.
