Broadacre

Growing healthy crops and hitting yield targets requires thriving soil and plant biology. At Biostart, we support cropping farmers with biostimulants that activate beneficial soil and plant microbes that ensure optimal yields.

Mycorrcin

Improve soil health by activating beneficial soil microbes and mycorrhizal fungi. Certified organic version available.

Foliacin

Foliar spray for improved plant health and resilience. Certified organic version available.

How we can help

Our programme is proven to give canola, wheat, barley, and lentils a strong start and an average increased yield of 10%.
This is due to the programme improving the soil biology, which creates bigger, sturdier plants with more extensive roots that take up more nutrients.

Evidence

Row crops yield improvement trial sheet
Including trial data from canola, wheat, barley and lentil crops across four states in Australia, this trial sheet looks at the positive effects Biostart’s biostimulant programme has on yield, even in challenging growing seasons.

How to use our products

Biostart biostimulant products are easy-to-apply and can be co-applied with other products reducing the cost of implementing the programme into an existing broadacre programme.

Mycorrcin is a soil biostimulant that, when applied by direct injection at sowing, activates beneficial soil microbes that stimulates healthy root growth leading to enhanced nutrient uptake, faster crop establishment and improved yields in rowcrops. Mycorrcin can be co-applied with other soil applications.

Foliacin is a foliar-applied plant biostimulant that, when applied at canopy closure, gives plants resilience to chemical and environmental stress such as spray drift, drought and heat. Foliacin can be co-applied with other foliar sprays.

Additional products

If you want to get the most from your broadacre crops, we have these additional products to support you.

Digester

Digester activates soil decomposition microbes for faster crop residue breakdown, this reduces the opportunity for disease over-wintering and improves nutrient recycling and soil structure. Apply Digester directly on the soil during or after stubble incorporation.
