Why Farmura Organic Fertilisers?

The soil is a complex living world, a dynamic entity of bacteria, fungi, moulds, yeasts, protozoa, algae, worms, insects and minute organisms. Each soil particle is covered in oxides, water and organic matter. One ounce of healthy soil can have a surface area amounting to 2 1/2 hectares and contain more bacteria and micro organisms than the worlds human population – a truly startling statistic!

In order to maintain a healthy plant it is first essential to ensure a healthy soil. After many years of being overlooked the benefits of organics are again being realised and the sensible approach is surely to combine the best of organic and inorganics. This has always been the Farmura approach.

The key to successful to turf management is a balanced programme and this is where organic inputs have a vital role to play.

Bacterial activity in the soil is crucial to plant and soil health. And Farmura products are proven over many years with users and trial programmes. For example one trial showed a 400% increase in bacteria count over 12 weeks.

The range of micro nutrients, trace elements, amino acids and growth hormones are as important as NPK. Without a balanced programme nutrients get locked up in the soil and are unavailable to the plant. Naturally occurring minerals are depressed and soil bacteria are destroyed contributing to other problems such as thatch build up and black layer.

Organic products produce a genuine and long lasting improvement – in general quick results tend to go away almost as quickly as they arrive. Good turf management is a question of balance – combining cultural management, organics and synthetics working together.

Latest research

The success of Porthcawl Liquid Organic Fertiliser and the Water Management product Revolution, a unique product that has the ability to balance air and water in the soil has led to greenkeepers combining the products in a spray programme. To ensure the compatibility of the mix, research was carried out at STRI. STRI research proves that Revolution significantly improves the delivery of water and Porthcawl into a hydrophobic rootzone.
