Improving Your SOIL.
Plants get all the minerals they need from the soil they grow in.
Improving your soil gives them the resources they need to thrive. High Quality. High Yield. High Profits.
Growers.
All plants need ‘food’ to grow – air, water, nutrients. And sunlight!
Plants also need mineral trace elements to complete their natural life cycle effectively… to germinate, grow, reproduce, to thrive.
These can only come from the SOIL.
Reversing decline.
With each harvest, the essential minerals that were taken up into the crop are removed from the land. If not replaced, they become depleted.
Intensive agricultural methods over the last century have achieved higher yields. Unfortunately this has also accelerated the depletion of trace minerals.
In many cases, the lack of certain elements is the limiting factor in crop nutrient efficiency. Yields will suffer, regardless of nutrient availability.
Long-term Gain.
Restoring all your mineral trace elements boosts soil biological activity and in turn the soil nutrient accessibility. You can offset some of the cost for fertilizer inputs whilst also reducing pollution from run-off. Stronger crops grown with lower inputs means greater profits.
Plant growth also strengthens below ground , increasing soil organic matter levels. Locking up carbon this way helps offset climate change.
Improve Your Soil. Protect Your Future.
The UK government is recognizing the contribution that agriculture can make to improve the environment. Following Brexit, the Single Farm Payment is likely to change, and will reward farmers who improve their soil mineral indices.
One quarter of UK farmers rely on subsidy payments to remain profitable. Improving your soil will improve profitability and protect future subsidy payments.
