The new naming structure also signals additional products expected from Ostara’s pipeline.
Ostara is emphasizing that its fertilizer—previously marketed as Crystal Green—delivers more than double the plant-available phosphorus of other phosphate fertilizers and will now be known as CG P2X.
“CG P2X more than doubles plant-available phosphorus and nitrogen, far outperforming any traditional ammonium phosphate fertilizers,” Ron Restum, Ostara’s chief commercial officer, said in a news release. “CG P2X offers an innovative replacement for traditional ammonium phosphate fertilizers, giving growers the most efficient, sustainable and economical phosphate fertilizer on the market.”
After 15 years of development, the company says CG P2X can reduce the amount of product applied per acre while increasing yields, with no additional cost per acre.
“Traditional phosphate fertilizers only offer 10% to 30% availability,” Restum said. “These losses typically occur due to soil tie-up, runoff and leaching. CG P2X is not water soluble; nutrients are only available in the presence of organic acids naturally released by plant roots. Because CG P2X only feeds the plant—not the soil—it’s extremely efficient for your crop, healthier for your soil, and better for the environment.”
The new naming structure also signals additional products expected from Ostara’s pipeline.
“We already offer farmers the most advanced phosphate fertilizer,” Restum said. “Our goal is to find new, innovative solutions while meeting the demand for sustainable and efficient fertilizer products that dramatically reduce the amount of nitrogen and phosphorus released into the environment.”
