NUELLO® iN | The Right Start
Nuello iN is the breakthrough natural seed treatment by Syngenta that infuses your crop with nitrogen-fixing bacteria, extracting nitrogen from the atmosphere. By colonizing seeds and seedlings, Nuello iN ensures a constant supply of nitrogen throughout the crop's life. Independent trials confirm its efficacy, Nuello iN enhances crop growth, resilience, and overall performance.
Experience sustainable agriculture's future with Nuello iN. Transform your farming practices, from seed to harvest, with this unique solution that delivers natural nitrogen and secures a bountiful, sustainable future for your crops.

What is NUELLO iN?
NUELLO iN is a biological seed treatment containing a unique blend of nitrogen fixing endophyte bacteria that are proven to capture nitrogen directly from the atmosphere


- The NUELLO iN endophytes were first isolated from giant poplar and willow trees along the nutrient poor river banks of the Washington state mountains. The endophytes were responsible for providing up to 65% of the total nitrogen to these giant trees
- Kansas State University have directly proven atmospheric nitrogen fixation and increased crop nitrogen uptake by the NUELLO iN endophytes in wheat
- Recommended to co-apply NUELLO iN with a fungicidal seed dressing to control seed and soil-borne disease – good compatibility with VIBRANCE Duo and BERET Gold

NUELLO iN Improves Nitrogen Use Efficiency
NUELLO iN ALWAYS ON nitrogen generation fixes nitrogen direct from the atmosphere for the duration of the season
Enhances crop biomass and root development for improved nutrient scavenging from the soil
NUELLO iN acts as a 'back-up generator' for the plant if nutrients become limiting for any reason e.g. late applied N, planned nitrogen reductions
Complements standard nitrogen applications as an additional source of N to enhance yields Excellent yield benefits on light/shallow land sites and in second cereals
Trials have shown NUELLO iN benefit equivalent to up to 30 kg N/ha
Excellent yield benefits on light/shallow land sites and in second cerealsNUELLO iN winter wheat trials 2022: A yield benefit on 11 out of 14 light/shallow land sites and 7 out of 10 second cereal sites
UK winter wheat nitrogen curve replicated trials 2022 demonstrate an average nitrogen benefit from NUELLO iN equivalent to up to 30 kg N/ha

SY KINGSBARN hybrid barley NUELLO iN rooting benefit assessed February 2022 and clear greening benefits observed June 2022NUELLO iN acts as a ‘back-up generator’ for the plant when nutrients become limiting:
A light land case study in winter wheat and hybrid barley from Newark, Nottinghamshire 2022
- 2022 was an extremely hot and dry season
- The main nitrogen timing in both the winter wheat and hybrid barley nitrogen curve trials was applied during extremely dry April weather with no moisture to take up the nitrogen prills until May
- NUELLO iN treated plots displayed clear rooting benefits, clear greening benefits, higher chlorophyll levels and reduced crop stress to extend the grain fill period
- NUELLO iN gave an average yield benefit of 0.5 t/ha in the winter wheat and 0.3 t/ha in the hybrid barley nitrogen curve trials
NUELLO iN Benefits
Efficient:
Improves nitrogen use efficiency.
Always ON:
Constantly working within the plant to give a more consistent nitrogen availability and efficiency for the duration of the season
Complements:
Apply NUELLO iN to enhance yields with standard nitrogen applications.
Substitutes:
Substitutes If synthetic N input reductions are planned apply NUELLO iN to help maintain yield targets. Trials have shown NUELLO iN can replace up to 30 kg N/ha*.
Sustainable:
The Haber Bosch process produces artificial nitrogen and is fundamental to modern agricultural food production but the process significantly contributes to greenhouse gas emissions – 10.6% of agricultural and 2.1% of global emissions. As part of an integrated nitrogen management strategy NUELLO iN can help optimise nitrogen programmes to improve farm carbon footprint, farm profitability and reduce nitrogen run-off into the environment.
Insurance:
Excellent insurance policy to help bridge the gap if N is late applied or not optimally taken up.Use NUELLO iN to optimize nitrogen programmes as part of an integrated nitrogen management strategy
Are you planning on reducing N in winter wheat and/or winter barley?
YES
If synthetic N input reductions are planned apply NUELLO iN to help maintain yield targets. Trials have shown NUELLO iN can replace up to 30 kg N/ha*
Use on all feed wheat and feed barley in all cropping situations to help mitigate N reduction
Currently not recommended to reduce N on milling wheat or malting barley to maintain % grain N
NO
Apply NUELLO iN to enhance yields with standard nitrogen applications especially where access to nitrogen from the soil is limited
NUELLO iN excellent yield benefit on light/shallow nutrient deficient soils and in second cereals
NUELLO iN is a great insurance policy to help bridge the gap from delayed nitrogen timings, dry weather, wet weather,N lock-up etc
Three key positions in winter wheat and winter barley
- 1 Apply NUELLO iN to enhance yields with standard nitrogen applications on light/shallow nutrient deficient soils. 123
- 2 Apply NUELLO iN to enhance yields with standard nitrogen applications on second cereals (and following other nitrogen hungry previous crops)
- 3 If synthetic N input reductions are planned apply NUELLO iN to help maintain yield targets. Trials have shown NUELLO iN can replace up to 30 kg N/ha*
