Biological Fertiliser Uses in Small Mixed Crop Farming

Biological Fertilisers can play a key role in boosting and maintaining soil fertility throughout fast crop rotations in regenerative small mixed crop farming. By embracing regenerative practices, and utilising natural crop nutrients, growers can produce nutrient-dense food while ensuring the long-term health of their land.

Organic Nutrition for Seeds, Soil and Plants

Seaweed and Fish Biological Fertilisers, made from natural ingredients, help to replenish the soil’s essential nutrients, improve soil structure, and support the diverse microbial life that is essential for healthy, productive ecosystems.

Biological inputs work in harmony with the natural cycles of the land, promoting a thriving, self-sustaining soil ecosystem

For small mixed crop growers, the integration of Liquid Fish and Seaweed Biological Fertilisers into their regenerative practices is particularly impactful.

With a diversity of crops, combined with the nurturing effects of these natural soil amendments, growers can create nutrient-dense foods while also building resilience in the land.

This approach not only benefits the growers, and their customers, but also contributes to the overall health and sustainability of the local environment.

Plant Diversity for Building Biology in the Soil

By growing complementary crops side-by-side, soil fertility is maintained more effectively, with each crop contributing to the overall productivity of the system. This can lead to higher yields and a more diverse array of nutrient-dense foods.

Through the natural interactions between different plant species, the soil’s fertility is enhanced, and pests are more effectively managed

Regenerative small mixed crop farmers have been at the forefront of this approach, demonstrating the potential for creating thriving, resilient agricultural ecosystems.

By embracing the principles of regenerative farming, these farmers are able to cultivate a diverse range of crops, promote biodiversity, and ultimately, regenerate their soil and produce genuine nutrient-dense food.

Nutrient dense food

Biological Support through the Entire Growth Cycle

Providing plants with the right nutrients and support at every stage of the growth cycle is crucial for producing nutrient-dense food. One often overlooked but vital aspect is seed treatment with Biological Fertilisers.

Seed treatment with specialised biological products can give young plants a strong start by supplying essential nutrients and beneficial microbes. This helps establish robust root systems and overall plant health from the very beginning.

Using biological seed treatments as part of a comprehensive nutrient management plan supports the plant’s natural growth processes throughout its lifecycle. This approach ensures the delivery of all the necessary building blocks for thriving, nutrient-rich yields.

Liquid Seaweed Biofertiliser

One key benefit of using Liquid Seaweed Biofertiliser is its bio-available nutrient content. Seaweed is packed with essential minerals, including nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and trace elements such as iron, zinc, and magnesium.

These nutrients are vital for healthy plant development and are readily absorbed by plants, as a biofertiliser, promoting robust root growth, improved flowering and fruiting, and overall plant vigor.

Alongside containing essential elements, Liquid Seaweed Biofertiliser also contains micronutrients such as iron, copper, zinc, molybdenum, boron, manganese and cobalt. 

Plants use tiny amounts of the micronutrients, often measured in parts per million, which is why Liquid Seaweed Biofertiliser can be highly effective in delivering these micronutrients to crops.

Due to a variety of beneficial compounds such as cytokinins, auxins, gibberellins, and betaines, Liquid Seaweed Biofertiliser can positively impact photosynthesis by stimulating the growth of chlorophyll pigments responsible for capturing light. This results in increased absorption of sunlight and more efficient conversion of carbon dioxide into carbohydrates.

Liquid Fish Biofertiliser

Liquid Fish Biofertiliser is high in organic nutrient content. It contains a balanced blend of macronutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, as well as micronutrients like calcium, magnesium, and iron. These nutrients are readily available to plants in a form that is easily absorbed through their roots.

One of the key benefits of using Liquid Fish Biofertiliser, hydrolysate, is its ability to promote the growth of soil fungi. Fungi play a crucial role in breaking down organic matter in the soil, releasing essential nutrients that are then made available to plants. By providing a food source for these fungi, Liquid Fish helps create an environment where they can thrive and perform their vital functions.

Furthermore, Liquid Fish Biofertiliser is an environmentally friendly option as it utilises discarded products from the fishing industry that would otherwise go to waste or be processed into low-value products. By recycling these byproducts into an effective fertiliser solution, we can reduce waste and promote sustainable practices in agriculture.

Supplementing animals with broad spectrum minerals can help stimulate metabolism and improve feed efficiency.  Seaweed has also been shown to assist with daily weight gain and body condition for stock grazing on native and improved pastures.

100% natural Liquid Seaweed Probiotic Supplement is suitable for all farm animals, including cattle, sheep, horses, goats, alpacas, pigs, poultry, and pets. Use regularly or at times of the year when feed quality is poor, or there are higher demands on the animal such as calving, foaling, or lambing.  Administer by adding to feed or water, or undiluted as a drench.  It can also be used as an inoculant on hay, as a grain soak, or sprayed over pastures.

Liquid Seaweed Probiotic Feed Supplement is made from renewable resources of seaweed that are harvested without causing harm to marine ecosystems. Benefits for animals include improved nutrition, enhanced immune function, better digestibility and reduced stress levels.

How to Use Biological Fertiliser in Small Mixed Crop Farming

SONIC Natural Farming Biological Fertilisers are concentrate products requiring dilution.  Adjust rate to suit growth stage.  Use lower rate for early growth and higher for advanced crop stages.

Seed Inoculant: 5L per 1 tonne of seed
Mixed Crops: 3-5L/ha every 7-14 days from emergence/transplant
Mixed Crops (advanced): 3-8L+/ha
