Long-term fertilization causes declines in soil quality and crop yield, hindering current agricultural development. It was found that chemical nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium (NPK) fertilizer lowered soil pH by an annual average of 0.07, while organic fertilizer increased soil pH by about 0.04. Furthermore, organic fertilizer and chemical fertilizer both increased total soil organic carbon (SOC).

Organic Fertilisers boost the microbial activity and bio-reserves in your soil's profile. When someone says organic, they are really talking about nutrient management and keeping microbial activity alive in your soil. Further, it also means having the carbon or bio-reserves in that soil so that those microbes can regenerate.

Where chemical fertilisers sap the soil of its nutrients and create erosion in the long-term, organic fertilisers such as ours provide energy for microbial build-up and increases the organic content to enhance the soil structure, water and nutrient retention.

When organic forms such as manure or compost are applied to the soil, the organic matter has to be first mineralized, or broken down, by microorganisms and its nutrients released to the soil as ions. This enables plant roots to absorb them. Thus, nutrients derived from organic fertilizer sources are not as readily available to plants compared to nutrients from soluble synthetic fertilizers.

However, Being less soluble means minimum nutrient losses to the environment and less salt injury to plants. They add organic matter contributing to soil health increasing both the water-holding capacity and cation exchange capacity. They stimulate microbial activity and improve soil structure. Organic fertilizers also are valuable sources of micronutrients to plants.

All of our Organic Nutrient’s products are designed to support and enhance the healthy microbial activity in soil as well as other beneficial organic matter. It works to improve soil integrity and structure in the long-term instead of providing short-term benefits with long-term consequences.
