Soil fertility is the foundation of crop production and involves complex interactions between soil, nutrients and plants. Factors affecting soil fertility such as texture and bioavailability of plant nutrients should be optimized to improve yield and quality of crops. Soil management is thus critical to sustain soil productivity over time.
With continuous land cropping, soil depletion is widespread due to intense land cultivation and inadequate soil management. Soil depletion can occur through overtillage that damages soil structure, overuse of chemical fertilizers that inhibit microorganisms, and salinization of soil. Agricultural land with damaged soil impedes root penetration and reduces crop yield, causing the grower to lose economic value.
Our Soil Advantage Solutions concurrently enhance soil fertility through organic matter, maximize nutrient absorption by plants through bioavailable plant nutrients and improve soil texture through microbes. The technology applied derives organic matter from readily available compost and fortifies it with plant nutrients derived solely from renewable and recycled sources.
