How Rhizolizer Works
Rhizolizer is formulated to match farmers’ desired applications, with dry, hopper-box applied, liquid in-furrow, and liquid seed treatment formulations available. With product applied directly to the seed, our microbes go to work immediately at germination. The strains in Rhizolizer are endophytic, meaning they go into and grow with the plant. This allows for long-lasting results.
Improves Soil Activity
Microbial strains increase activity in the root zone around the plant.
Expands Root Growth
Superior strains expand root growth allowing more nutrient uptake and availability.
Enhances Nutrient Uptake
Improves plant-available phosphorus which increases nutrient use efficiency.
Increase Yields
More bushels per acre and more revenue generated.
Featured Strains
Locus AG has discovered and maintains a library of microbial strains that are beneficial to a variety of cropping systems. We carefully select strains from that library that prove beneficial and impactful. We operate under the philosophy that a few strong symbiotic strains will outperform many weak or competing strains. Our Rhizolizer products for row crops feature just 1-4 targeted strains per product depending on the crop and formulation.
Trichoderma
Beneficial endophytic fungi
Our specially selected Trichoderma sp. is a beneficial endophytic fungus that resides within the plant. Trichoderma releases metabolites, which increases nutrient uptake and use. The result is vigorous root growth, development, and crop productivity.
Bacillus
Beneficial endophytic bacteria
A specially selected Bacillus sp. that is a beneficial endophytic bacteria and produces metabolites, breaking down and moving nutrients. Improved nutrient use efficiency results in enhanced plant vigor and crop yield.
Rhizobia
Crop-specific, nitrogen-fixing bacteria
Specially selected crop-specific species of Rhizobia, nitrogen-fixing bacteria, that form a symbiotic relationship with the plant. Rhizobia enter the roots and form nodules, which aids in nitrogen fixation and helps legume crops maximize their yield potential.
Row Crop Data
Randomized and Replicated, Third-Party CRO Trials
It’s not what we say that matters. It’s what the data proves. That’s why we partner with contract research organizations (CROs) around the country to test new and existing products on a variety of crops. These third-party trials provide independent analysis on important data points for farmers such as yield, size, quality, and tissue and soil nutrients.

My corn treated with Locus AG biologicals looks much happier than the untreated corn. Last year, I had corn along a highway and had people coming up to me asking, ‘Why is your corn still green and everyone else’s isn’t?’
