07 Feb Microbes: helping you build a more productive, sustainable farm
We know that Australian farmers are already efficient and effective at managing their resources. In the Australian climate, you have to be.
But it’s no secret that much of our soil is tired.
Chemical fertilisers, pesticides, pollution, erosion, and intensive agriculture have stretched healthy soils to the limit.
Plus, market demands, a changing environment, and increasing cost pressures mean that we’ve got to strive to be even better. To be more sustainable, we must make small changes. Changes that result in significant outcomes.
Increasing microbial activity in the soil is crucial for sustainability
To help restore the natural abundance and sustainability of soil, we now know that increasing the microbial activity is transformative.
That’s why we started Biolink 4 Plants. As experienced farmers, we’re committed to supporting other growers to achieve more sustainable, profitable farming enterprises. And we’re encouraged to see real results since we’ve been working with growers who are incorporating microbials into their farm management practices.
Our microbial-based range of natural fertilisers, soil stimulants, and now new animal probiotics, are helping to restore soils and grow healthier plants and animals.
What are the benefits of using microbial-based fertilisers and feed supplements?
Biolink Ignition
Ignition speeds up the composting process. By breaking down matter more quickly, it helps to re-incorporate rich organic material back into the soil for increased moisture, nutrient and water holding ability.
Bio-Hum
Combined with conventional fertilisers, Bio-Hum helps maintain nutrients, boosts uptake and reduces losses of essential nutrients needed for your plants to thrive.
Biolink’s Home Gardener range
Biolink’s garden range of Sprinkle and Soak, Germinator and Biolink Brew fertilisers tea bags are a winner with home gardeners, reviving the soil through biologicals and creating the perfect environment for vegetables, fruit trees and ornamentals plants to grow.
Opti-Gut Probiotics for Animals
New Opti-Gut is an animal probiotic for cattle, sheep, pigs, horses, fish, dogs, and cats. It’s working wonders to build a healthy biome, supplement inadequate diets, and support overall animal wellbeing.
“Based on research both here and overseas, we’ve blended six microbial groups that researchers, gardeners, and farmers in the field, have found to boost microbial activity in the soil and plant growth. The benefits are not just the high number of microbials in our products. It’s the combination and the interactions these have in the soil that makes the difference” explained Biolink co-owner Kevin Beecroft.
A unique formula of powerful microbial groups
The six powerful live microbial groups in Biolink organic fertiliser and soil stimulants are:
- Enterococcus Faecalis
- Lactobacillus Group
- Pediococcus pentosaceus
- Aspergillus Group
- Bacillus Subtilis
- Saccharomyces cerevisiae
The Biolink range also uses the power of humic fulvic acid, a key ingredient used to boost the bioavailability of organic nitrogen and reduce the use of synthetic fertilisers.
