Nutrición Vegetal Activa

What Nutrición Vegetal Activa does

Nutrición Vegetal Activa (NVA) is a privately held Chilean specialty plant nutrition company headquartered in Lampa, Santiago Metropolitan Region, founded in 2000 and operating with a small team of 9 employees. The company develops, manufactures, and distributes a portfolio of approximately 30 specialty fertilizers, biostimulants, and root/soil nutrition products organized into four categories: Specialty formulations (e.g., BORMACKAL, CitoCur, MOLYBOR, POLIFAITH variants), Nutrient by Objective solutions (Foliafeed and Cito lines targeting specific elements such as Ca, B, Zn, Fe, Mn, Mg, K, plus macronutrient blends), Biostimulants (ALGAXIL, CITOCROP, MACROHUMIC, POLI-UP, PROLIOL), and Roots–Soil solutions (Foliafeed Ca, MACROSOIL, NVASOIL, RootSeed, TensoCal, NVAHUMIC).

NVA's core technology is built on organic-based carriers and biostimulant molecules — carboxylic acids, humic acids, ethanolamine, carbohydrates, lignosulfonates, polyols, and saponins — which serve as nutrient carriers, wetting/dispersing agents, and Root System Activity (RSA) inducers. The company applies this chemistry within crop-specific agronomic programs targeting almonds, blueberries, cherries, citrus, walnuts, table and wine grapes, and hazelnuts, indicating a consultative, protocol-driven approach rather than a commodity fertilizer play.

The business model is product sales through agricultural input distributors and resellers in Chile, serving fruit and vineyard producers. Revenue is generated on a one-time sale basis per SKU; pricing is not publicly disclosed. Marketing is conducted through technical documentation and downloadable safety/transport data sheets hosted on the company website, with no disclosed digital sales channel, app, or API. Inputs show no parent company, no funding rounds, no partnerships or alliances, no management team disclosures, and no awards, patents, or certifications — consistent with a closely held niche operator. Public visibility appears to peak around 2020, with the website last reviewed on 03-02-2020 and no subsequent verifiable expansion signals.
