Biostimulation of Plants

By populating the rhizosphere with known beneficial and capable microorganisms, potential adverse populations may be reduced while at the same time providing the many skills of these added microbes to fulfill the special needs of the plant roots.

How can microbes stimulate plant growth?

The growing roots of plants have an intimate relationship with the soil around them. As they push through the soil, they endure signficant abrasion to their protective layers leaving a trail of organic debris in their immediate vicinity (rhizosphere). Ubiquitous indigenous microorganisms may be able to utilize this debris as a food and energy source and begin to populate the area. While many of these indigenous strains may be harmless, some may be undesirable neighbors for the roots. Inoculated microbes can bring new talents to the area of the rhizosphere with potential advantages to the plants.

Environoc 401 has demonstrated a number of benefits for a variety of plant species.
