Ferti-Soil - Enzyme preparation for healthy, resilient soil

Ferti-Soil is a unique enzyme preparation that stimulates the activity of microorganisms in the soil. Due to a sophisticated composition of enzymes and coenzymes, it accelerates the decomposition of fresh organic matter and at the same time helps to reduce the pressure of harmful soil diseases.

This double action makes Ferti-Soil a smart addition to the fertilization plan, especially in crops with high crop residues or an increased risk of pathogens.


What does Ferti-Soil do?

  • Accelerates digestion of organic matter. Thanks to enzymes such as cellulase, fresh organic material is broken down faster. That means less residue, more soil activity and better mineralization.
  • Inhibits harmful soil fungi. Ferti-Soil affects the environment in which pathogens such as Fusarium, Rhizoctonia, Sclerotinia develop normally. By breaking down the "home" in which these fungi live, their emergence is disrupted, leading to lower disease pressure.

Key properties at a glance:

  • Enzymes, Bacterial excretion, plant extracts, Zn

  • Accelerates decomposition of organic matter

  • Decreases the C/N ratio of organic matter very rapidly

  • Delays the development of pathogenic organisms

Ferti-Soil contributes to a soil that is alive and resilient. A healthy soil starts with active soil life.

Application and Advice

Ferti-Soil in potato cultivation has the greatest added value when mixed by the N-xt FertiPhos with the veurt application. Thus, the root zone is protected by active soil biology. To do this, mix 0.75 ltr/ha of Ferti-Soil while filling the tank with the FertiPhos.

Ferti-Soil in onion cultivation has the greatest added value when mixed by the N-xt FertiPhos with the veurt application. In this way, the root zone is protected by active soil biology. To do this, mix 0.75 ltr/ha of Ferti-Soil while filling the tank with the FertiPhos.

Ferti-Soil in outdoor vegetable cultivation has the greatest added value when mixed by the N-xt FertiPhos with the veurt application. In this way, the root zone is protected by active soil biology. To do this, mix 0.75 ltr/ha of Ferti-Soil while filling the tank with the FertiPhos.

Application and Advice

Ferti-Soil in maize cultivation has the greatest added value if it is sprayed after harvest, just before or during incorporation of crop residues. This can also be done at the same time as sowing a growth fertilizer. In this way, active soil biology can promote the conversion of crop residues. For this, spray 1 ltr/ha Ferti-Soil with plenty of water (300-400 ltr), for a good distribution over the crop residues.

Ferti-Soil in cereal cultivation has the greatest added value if it is sprayed after harvest, just before or during incorporation of crop residues. This can also be done simultaneously with the sowing of a growth fertilizer. In this way, active soil biology can promote the conversion of crop residues. For this, spray 1 ltr/ha Ferti-Soil with plenty of water (300-400 ltr), for a good distribution over the crop residues.

Ferti-Soil in beet cultivation has the greatest added value if it is sprayed after harvest, just before or during the incorporation of crop residues. In this way an active soil biology can promote the conversion of crop residues. To do this, spray 1 ltr/ha Ferti-Soil with plenty of water (300-400 ltr), for a good distribution over the crop residues.

Recommended dosages Ferti-Soil

There are two possible application techniques for Ferti-Soil; as a supplement and mix with the N-xt FertiPhos during sowing or planting and as a separate application after harvest to accelerate the digestion of crop residues so that humification can take place optimally.

Application

Dosage

During planting, sowing and potting 0.75 ltr/ha
After harvest 1 ltr/ha
In season (in case of soil related problems) 1 ltr/ha

Digestion of crop residues after harvest

Post-harvest spraying of crop residues (such as cornfield, field vegetables, etc., see photo) works very well with Ferti-Soil. Already after 3 weeks, crop residues are fully digesting and the woody structure is decomposing. As shown in photos.

Effect on Rhizoctonia in potatoes.

Conclusion: there is a clear effect with the addition of Ferti-Soil on Rhizoctonia susceptible varieties and soils. However, Amistar still gives a good/better effect. The question is of course how long chemistry will remain and whether we should (dare to) go more towards natural resilience? Perhaps a combination of both...
