"HubSat" on the move with Alliance Partners
The new "HubSat" analytical network is already starting to take shape even before its launch date in the New Year with development in Argentina, with Yara, and in the Ukraine, with Nu3/SQM. Read on below to see how "HubSat" is beginning to revolutionise the quality of our Alliance Partner´s business.
Yara Argentina Start With Megalab; 78 Samples in First Month
We want to celebrate our next step of integration between Phosyn and Yara Argentina by introducing the Megalab program.
Our six distributors are the first part of the Phosyn-Yara strategy who by going deeper into the total nutrition of current crops are improving their service and technical credibility to their customers.
Next, two laboratories are in place, Technosuelo Labs in Tucumán and Catholic University of Cordoba Labs, providing the logistics of collecting and receiving samples. The final step is that pre-processed samples are sent to be finally analysed in Pocklington at Phosyn Labs.
Yara Argentina believes that Megalab is a key tool to business development, being the best way to define micro and macronutrient requirements and perspectives and they will gradually include the rest of their distributor chain in the new year.
Many thanks to Javier Brenner, Roberto Gaurise and all the Yara Argentina Team.

Nu3 and Megalab
We recently welcomed to Phosyn Peter De Vrie´s of Nu3. Peter is working closely with myself, Mike Beesley and Alison Barr to integrate the Nu3 Kristalon liquid fertiliser range into the Megalab package for Rise Agriscience based in the Ukraine.
This is the first example of Alliance products being completely integrated into Megalab and Peter commented on the extended opportunities the program provided for fine tuning and accurate product application with better results.
The project is providing a useful template for "HubSat" as we are helping Rise Agriscience to set up a pre-prep lab facility with samples being sent to Pocklington for analysis. The subsequent Megalab recommendations will then be geared to Nu3´s Kristalon product range for which Rise Agriscience are the main distributors in the region.

I hope these have "wetted" your seasonal appetite so all that´s left is to wish you a happy festive season and a successful "HubSat" New Year.
