Seed Inoculations

  • Soil Vam.
  • A network of fungal filaments inside the roots and the surrounding Rhizosphere. Water and minerals from the soil are easily available resulting in a better nutritive equilibrium. These result in an increase in plant resistance to environmental stress such as drought, chilling and the detrimental effects of some root pathogens.

Grass Grub Innoculants

  • This product is under development and will most likely be applied with Soil and Biological feeders.
  • Will contain some or most of the following: Fish Hydrolysate, Humic liquid, Nitrate and or ammonia nitrogen.
  • Carbohydrates may include: high energy sugar, molasses, glucose.

Stubble digesters

  • Applied as a Liquid.
  • Assists in breaking down root ball and remaining stubble and preventing loss of nutrients.
  • Contact Agent for technical information.

Knockout for weeds

  • Knockout was designed to make chemicals more effective, and thus to have less environmental impact.
  • When combined with half the amount of recommended chemicals, the weed kill rate is higher.
  • An electrical field is built into its formulation, producing this better result. The kill is slower and more complete.
  • Its pH is designed that when made up to a total of 100 litres of water (important) it assists in bursting the cells of the plant, thus producing a better kill.
  • Fulvic acid is incorporated which helps carry the chemical into the plant. Any chemical not used, is held by the fulvic and is then destroyed by microbes. It therefore reduces any damage to microbes.
  • Also built into Knockout is a frequency setter which allows the chemical to move into the plant more readily, ie it opens the stomata.
  • Where chemicals (roundup) have been applied in winter, good results have been achieved when it could be assumed they would fail.
  • To summarise

    Reduces the impact of chemicals on soil.
    Achieves a more complete kill.
    Chemical residues destroyed.
    Less impact on microbes.
