Field Trial Results Highlight Potential Yield Gains From Nitricity Fertilizer

According to a recent LinkedIn post from Nitricity Inc, the company is highlighting field trial data from Hollister, Calif., involving its Calcium-Fortified Ash Tea fertilizer on cilantro. The post reports that plots using Ash Tea with 24% less nitrogen achieved yields of 10,887 lbs per acre versus 10,500 lbs under the farmer’s standard practice with conventional in-season nitrogen.

The LinkedIn post attributes the performance to Ash Tea supplying nitrogen as readily available nitrates, in contrast to composted chicken manure pellets that are described as slower and less predictable in release. It also suggests that more efficient nitrogen uptake, increased calcium, and lower sodium and chloride competition can improve overall plant nutrient balance.

For investors, the trial results, if replicated at scale, point to a potential value proposition in organic and specialty crop systems where yield stability and input efficiency are critical. Demonstrated yield gains with reduced nitrogen inputs could support pricing power, customer adoption, and differentiation versus traditional organic fertilizers.

The post also implies that Nitricity’s technology could tap into growers’ demand for both agronomic performance and sustainability in nutrient management. If further validated across additional crops and geographies, such outcomes may expand the company’s addressable market in organic and high-value agriculture and strengthen its competitive positioning in low-carbon fertilizer solutions.
