Finding pink roots on an onion crop is frustrating, especially when you have already invested in a long rotation and careful crop management. The practical concern is the crop above them: uneven growth, disappointing bulb size and the time spent getting onions to harvest. A useful starting point is to look at the whole growing…
A practical, scalable microbial programme for crop establishment, nutrient efficiency and plant resilience – designed for low-disruption trials with retail, food-service and fresh-produce supply-chain partners.
Nitrogen and phosphorus are becoming more expensive, more fragile and more politically exposed. That makes 2026 a sensible year to ask a practical question: can farmers afford not to trial biological tools that may improve nutrient efficiency on farm?
Foliar nitrogen fixing spray is a fast-growing category, but growers still need clear proof. This post explains BactoStym Nitro in plain English, shows how we tested it in a nitrogen-free medium, and shares the lab results from an independent external laboratory.
UK fertiliser prices and supply volatility are reshaping farm input decisions in 2026. Learn how BactoRol Nitrogen supports nitrogen availability via nitrogen-fixing bacteria, with clear tables from a controlled maize trial and practical measurement tips.
Last season we used BioGarden on tomatoes, radish, turnip, peppers, courgettes, and beetroot – at sowing, then monthly. Germination looked stronger, plants grew sturdier, and pests kept picking the untreated pots. Here’s what we did, what we saw, and the simple science behind it.
Cut synthetic nitrogen and still keep your wheat yield – is it possible? On our test field we reduced synthetic nitrogen by 50%, used Bactorol Nitrogen and BactoStym, and harvested the same yield as the control field, but with lower fertiliser costs. In this post we explain the trial and why we now suggest a safer 30% reduction for most farms.
Field results from Gezira, Sudan, show that RhizoForte (seed) and BactoRol (soil) biofertilisers increased sorghum plant and kernel height, expanded leaf area, and multiplied rhizosphere bacteria by around ten-fold under limited irrigation-evidence that targeted microbial inputs can enhance performance when water is tight.
Wheat seed treatment can raise spring wheat yields without harming establishment. In this sandy-loam trial, treated seed matched control emergence and tillering, showed significantly higher vigour in June, and finished with a 12% yield increase!
Biofertiliser for peppers can make fruit look better and test better – without hurting yield. In side-by-side farm trials, BactoTech bacterial products increased vitamin C and total carotenoids, boosting colour, antioxidant value and shopper appeal.
