PROJECT SUBMITTED TO THE INNOVATION TRACK / NAFEI PROGRAM AND CONTEST
The effectiveness of the Biofertilizer range is mainly due to the presence of mycorrhizal fungi spores. The associations between the roots of plants with these species of fungi increase the absorption of nutrients and water by the plant, leading to increased productivity, faster development and improvement of plant health in general. It is thus based on a natural and abundant association in rich and fertile soils. In addition to the high selectivity of species of fungi, each biofertilizer contains essential nutrients for the enrichment of the soil, all from natural and organic sources, specially designed for biological cultivation.
The opportunity arose for the development of an effective and natural fertilizer due to the growing concern to implement more ecological cultivation measures with less negative impacts. It thus satisfies the demand of the growing organic market, as well as the market for the production of hemp for medicinal purposes, where it is only expected in 2020 to reach an area greater than 1000 ha.
Our target audience are organic farmers, agricultural companies in the biological field, companies whose field is the production of Cannabis for medicinal purposes, people with an interest in the organic market.
