Soil Improvement with TerraBioGen’s SG-100 and LC-200
Agricultural Uses
The main focus of the TerraBioGen field development was soil improvement on cash crops such as potatoes, tomatoes, blueberries, cotton and corn. Before we try any new crop or product application, research a different soil treatment, or set-up a growth trial, we evaluate its performance in TerraBioGen’s greenhouse. Our resident team of scientists and collaborators are the driving force behind new application development. The main goal of these initial studies was to establish the following parameters:
- Best application rate for different crops
- Ideal application method
- Timing of application
- Compatibility with other commonly used products
- Comparison to similar products
- Economics of TerraBioGen applications
Solid Soil Amendment, SG-100
The dry soil amendment is very easy to work with because it is easy to mix with existing N-P-K components of nutrient management recommendations. For example, in blueberries we substituted 25% of N-P-K input by weight with the TerraBioGen dry soil amendment. Field application (spreading) was accomplished without any difficulties. In this example we found the ideal method of application as well as timing. The resulting soil amendment product was compatible with existing practices and the required economic benefit to the grower was achieved.
A similar approach was used in the turf and horticulture industries. With potatoes, the use of dry product is not as common but field results from our studies are demonstrating economical benefits to the growers.
Liquid Soil Amendment, LC-200
The liquid soil amendment can be used on its own or mixed with existing products. Soil amendments are constantly being developed to fit existing commercial practices and applications. There is an observable trend of synergy between TerraBioGen’s liquid soil amendment and humic acid to different biological inoculants.
TerraBioGen is striving for constant improvement to ensure the excellence of its soil amendments, designed to meet the specific needs of your soil and crops and exceed the respective biodiversity demands of your particular situation.
TerraBioGen product’s strong and long lasting fertility benefits are proven. Research continues to develop a deeper understanding of it’s disease suppression and soil moisture retention capabilities, its drought resistant strength and many other plant and soil factors that reinforce the natural growth cycle.
