Fertilizer leaches.
Biologicals die.
Seeds sprout too early.
Pesticides wash away.
Why settle?
The Reality in the Field
Modern ag inputs still lose 30–60% of their value after application.
Up to 50% of nitrogen is lost to volatilization or leaching (USDA NRCS)
Calcium nitrate can lose functionality in under 72 hours when exposed to moisture
Most biologicals lose viability after 2–4 weeks in uncontrolled storage
CRFs cost 3–5× more than standard fertilizers—and still leave plastic behind
Seed coatings offer zero control in 80% of commercial blends tested
Inputs aren’t underperforming because of poor application.
They’re underperforming because the system isn’t built to protect them.
What PED Has
A patented coating platform that transforms standard inputs into protected, performance-driven systems.
Applied cold and not water-soluble
Biodegradable and Plastic-free
Compatible with high-sensitivity materials
Built to coat fertilizers, seeds, biologicals, and trace blends—without changing what works.
What It Does
Reduces nitrogen volatilization by 30–45% (based on urea trials)
Delivers 21+ day nutrient curves for coated urea
Stabilizes calcium nitrate in humidity for 30+ days
Delays seed germination by hours, days, or up to 2+ weeks—controlled by formulation
Replaces paraffins, polymers, slurries, and synthetic binders—all in one system
Industry pain points backed by hard numbers:
Why It’s Needed
$1.5 billion/ year
lost in nitrogen leaching alone (USDA ARS)
“micro” plastic bans
across the EU set to restrict CRF coatings by 2028
CRF pricing +300%
vs. uncoated equivalents (ScienceDirect)
60–70% viability before application if unprotected
Seed replant risk
from premature sprouting impacts 20–25% of early-season acres
PED wasn’t built to delay release. It was built to protect value—and make the inputs already in use last longer, perform better, and waste less.
Essentialcide™
A New Hypothesis for Pest Control, Proven in the Field
Essentialcide™ wasn’t built from synthetic chemistry or recycled essential oil blends. It was built from a hypothesis:
What if hemp extract could serve as a true botanical active—delivering clean, effective, and safe pest control without residue or resistance pressure?
That idea became Essentialcide™—a FIFRA 25(b)-compliant, broad-spectrum botanical formulated from hemp extract and targeted essential oils. What it delivers:
#1. Smell-neutral, spray-safe, and residue-free
#2. Works on psyllids, aphids, mites, and more
#3. Built for foliar, soil, and post-harvest use
#4. No re-entry delays, no synthetic load
#5. Qualified under “active substance of a plant” guidance
It’s not an oil blend. It’s a hemp-based pest control system—designed for real-world agriculture.
Durable Inputs™
The PED platform powers Durable Inputs™: a new category of coated inputs engineered to hold longer, perform better, and waste less.
No synthetics. No plastic. No heat. No water. No fine print.
Proof, Not Hype
Durable Inputs™ coatings are:
• Used in the field
• Validated in third-party trials
• Supported by research and performance data
• Aligned with OMRI and regenerative programs
Already replacing paraffin, polymers, and CRFs in real-world systems

Let the Input Prove Itself
PED isn’t another product pitch. It’s a way to make inputs already in use finally perform the way they should.
