Biofertilizer
A biofertilizer (also bio-fertilizer) is a substance which contains living microorganisms which, when applied to seeds, plant surfaces, or soil, colonize the rhizosphere or the interior of the plant and promotes growth by increasing the supply or availability of primary nutrients to the host plant. Biofertilizers add nutrients through the natural processes of fixing nitrogen in the soil or in the roots of plants such as legumes, solubilizing phosphorus, and stimulating plant growth through the synthesis of growth-promoting substances.
Soil Conditioners
A soil conditioner is a product which is added to soil to improve the soil’s physical qualities such as the structure, the porosity, its water holding potential, and its ability to provide nutrition. Both TerraPro Commercial and TerraPro Ag Grade are sold as a dry granular formulation only, unless the contractor is going to apply the product using a hydroseeder in which case the product is formulated as a powder.
Soil Food
A soil food is a product which is added to the soil with the objective of feeding the community of soil microbes including the bacteria, the mycorrhizal fungi and the larger animals of the soil such as earth worms. Soil Food needs to be composed of nutritional calories of protein (not empty calories such as sugar) in order to provide the building blocks of all life which are the amino acids.
