Plodorodie-Saratov, a member of Acron Group’s Plodorodie Agribusiness Holding, has reported the results of its 2026 winter wheat harvest in Saratov region. The yield reached 7.41 tonnes per hectare, compared with a regional average of 3.29 tonnes per hectare and a national average of 4.02 tonnes per hectare.
According to the Company’s experts, this strong performance was achieved through the application of Acron’s high-quality fertilisers. Alexander Makarenko, Executive Director of Plodorodie-Saratov said, ‘This year’s harvest demonstrates that we have chosen the right nutrition system. For winter wheat, we used 100 kg per hectare of NPK 16-16-16 and 230 kg per hectare of ammonium nitrate. This resulted in a significant improvement in both yield and quality’.
Acron Group established Plodorodie Agribusiness Holding in 2008 to implement agricultural projects, test the Group’s advanced fertiliser brands and improve their application techniques.
