EnSoil Algae™ Supports Nitrogen Reduction Goals
While synthetic nitrogen can be a useful tool for nutrient management, over-application results in detrimental costs for farmers, polluted watersheds, degraded soil health, and a disrupted natural nitrogen cycle. On most farms, approximately half of the synthetic...
Soil Biodiversity is the Key!
More life in your soil means better crops. Soil biodiversity is the key to improving nutrient cycling, crop resiliency, water efficiency, and input reduction. Nutrient Cycling Diverse soil microbes are essential for efficient nutrient cycling. They make nutrients...
Soil Aggregate Stability: An Indicator of Soil Health
Soil aggregates are made up of a combination of soil particles (sand, silt, and clay) and are held together by soil organic matter. A simple and effective way to assess soil health is by digging up a chunk of soil and looking at its aggregate stability. Soil...
Chemically-dependent vs biologically-strengthened soils
“Soil is not a chemical soup, it's a living a system, a community of organisms." ―Louise Fresco Biostimulants like EnSoil Algae™ can help soils reduce chemical dependency on synthetic fertilizers. While fertilizers provide plant-available nutrients, they bypass the...
