Every Bushel Matters, Now More Than Ever – Redox’s RAM Technology Delivers It

The hard truth: research from the University of Illinois shows that corn plants only take up about one-third of the nitrogen farmers apply. The rest comes from soil or is lost through leaching, volatilization, or denitrification. That means every year, a big chunk of your fertilizer dollars never makes it into the crop.

The Hidden Cost of Imbalance Fertilizer isn’t just nutrients—it carries electrical charges. Negative and positively charged nutrients must stay in balance for plants to keep producing sugars and starch.

Warren County, Indiana – September 2025 | In this trial, the grower replaced 50 lbs. of nitrogen with 32 oz of RDX-N.

RDX-N on the left and right, grower standard practice (GSP) in the center. Observations showed RDX-N treated ears had more consistent length and less variation compared to the GSP, even with the 50 lb. replacement.

• Converts N into amino acids (not excess nitrate storage)
• Maintains plant charge balance under high N availability
• Turns applied N into yield instead of waste

• Up to 50% reduction in applied in-season N rates
• Equal or better yield outcomes
• Healthier, stress-tolerant crops

Photosynthesis itself is about charges: water molecules split into protons, electrons, and oxygen. That charge is the plant’s foundation for energy and nutrient uptake.

A plant should be ~50% positive and 50% negative charge.

• Nitrogen gets stored instead of used → plant stress & wasted input
• Photosynthesis slows down → less sugar and energy
• Growth halts until balance is restored

RAM technology (Redox Active Molecules) works like a charge “shock absorber” in the plant and soil. These molecules can give or take charge, helping plants maintain balance even under stress.
