Attune Agriculture launches Horizon A soil adjuvant that improves moisture retention

Attune Agriculture has introduced Horizon A, a soil-applied adjuvant designed to enhance the effectiveness of crop protection products and fertilizers by improving moisture and active ingredient retention in the plant root zone.

The Boca Raton, Florida-based company said the proprietary formulation helps prevent water and tank-mix ingredients—including herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, nematicides, nutrients, and fertilizers—from moving beyond the critical root zone. By keeping more of these inputs available where plants can absorb them, the product is intended to improve crop protection and nutrient uptake while reducing losses.

Horizon A also reduces evaporation at the soil surface, helping stabilize soil moisture between irrigation events and lowering plant stress. According to the company’s performance data, the adjuvant reduced Phytophthora disease severity by 82.4%, reduced nematode levels by 56.6%, and increased whitefly control by 300%. Trials also showed improved weed control for 80% of pre-emergent species tested, along with a 29.3% increase in potato yields and a 17.8% rise in total solids.
