As strawberries transition from the white-fruit stage to the coloration stage, this period becomes a critical window for quality formation. Insufficient nutrient supply, declining photosynthetic efficiency, or temperature stress can easily lead to: small fruit size, slow coloration, uneven coloring, reduced firmness, poor sugar–acid ratio, and shortened shelf life.

In an era of increasing climate extremes and frequent soil stress, modern agriculture has entered a “high-resilience age.”

Drought, salinity, and heat stress are no longer rare occurrences—they have become recurring challenges that every grower must face.

Humic acid is a complex macromolecular organic polymer formed through millions of years of microbial decomposition and geological processes acting upon plant and animal remains. Not only is it a core component of soil organic matter, but it also improves soil structure, stimulates crop growth, and enhances fertiliser utilisation efficiency, serving as a vital bridge linking soil health to crop productivity. Humic acid significantly promotes and activates microbial proliferation in the vast majority of soils and water bodies, earning it the titles of ‘microbial activator’ and ‘soil prebiotic’. 

As consumer demand for fruit color, taste, nutrition, and storability continues to rise, growers today face a challenge that goes beyond yield management — achieving scientific, high-quality fruit production.CityMAX Group, a global leader in plant nutrition and biostimulant innovation, has launched a new generation biostimulant — AminTex®, specifically developed to optimize fruit quality.

The root system of coffee trees is primarily concentrated in the upper 20-60 cm of soil, with high demands for nutrient content, aeration, and drainage conditions. If the soil is nutrient-poor, has an imbalanced pH, or poor structure, it can lead to weak branches, slow growth, sparse fruits, or declining quality.

Bladderwrack extract, as a premier biostimulant, exerts multiple synergistic effects in bolstering crops' resistance to low-temperature stress. It works by regulating the plant's own physiological and biochemical processes to “awaken” and “enhance” its cold tolerance. Max Group meticulously selects Irish deep-sea seaweed, rich in multiple active ingredients, which undergoes extraction via Max's proprietary three-stage enzymatic hydrolysis process. This ensures the final product's exceptional purity and high efficacy.

CITYMAX Group has successfully received a new shipment of high-quality Irish seaweed kelp (Ascophyllum nodosum), harvested from the clean, cold waters of the North Atlantic.

These kelps are naturally rich in alginates, mannitol, and bioactive polysaccharides, making them an ideal base material for CITYMAX’s biostimulant and seaweed-based product lines.

Leguminous crops such as soybeans, peanuts, and peas are not only important sources of grain, oil, and protein but also nature’s “self-sufficient” plants. Through symbiosis with rhizobia, they can convert atmospheric nitrogen into plant-available nitrogen, creating a natural “nitrogen fertilizer.” However, the efficiency of this nitrogen-fixing system is influenced by root health, soil conditions, and the balance of the soil microbiome. The global soybean planting area exceeds 127 million hectares, with nitrogen fertilizer requirements in the United States around 50–100 kg per hectare. 

Cherries, essentially a high-quality commercial fruit, have achieved remarkable success in markets such as China, Chile, New Zealand, and North America due to their excellent appearance, crisp and sweet taste, and off-season supply advantages. However, factors such as climate, rainfall, and cultivation techniques have led to consistently high rates of fruit cracking. The CITYMax Group has introduced ULTRALGAE®, a functional secondary element nutrition solution based on the MAXBIO synergistic platform, to address this challenge.

Flower crops are extremely sensitive to nutrient balance, root environment, and flower bud development.To meet the demand for vigorous plants and high-quality blooming, we introduce a combined program using AMINOMIX LQ (foliar application) and ULTRA FULVIC LQ (root application) to achieve comprehensive management of “strong leaves, abundant flowers, active roots, and fertile soil.”
