Trials and case studies

Have a look through all the trials we have conducted around the world with real farmers.

Kiwifruit soil biology

Trial Mycorrcin Foliacin Digester
Read the results of long-term trials conducted in Bay of Plenty kiwifruit orchards using Biostart products, and concludes that resulting improvements in soil biology led to higher vine yields and better-quality fruit.

Strawberries

Trial Mycorrcin
A series of trials in New Zealand and Western Australia show that applying Mycorrcin to strawberry plants improves root growth, leading to better plant establishment and increased fruit yield.

Feed more cows per bale

Trial SilageKing
By activating ensiling bacteria and by reducing the activity of spoilage microbes, SilageKing retains more metabolic energy in silage.

Cherries

Technical sheet Mycorrcin Foliacin

Cherries

Trial Foliacin
We pitted Foliacin against a competitor’s product to see which had the greater impact on cherry cracking and yield. You can read all of the details in our trial sheet.

HayKing

Trial HayKing
Nutritional analysis of HayKing treated hay showed that the metabolizable energy (ME) was 11% higher than non-treated bales.

Increase lettuce yield

Trial Mycorrcin
A trial was conducted on a commercial lettuce crop in Murray Bridge, South Australia, to measure the impact Mycorrcin has on yield.

Boost veggie seedlings

Trial Mycorrcin
Lettuce, broccoli and cauliflower seedlings treated with Mycorrcin showed greater root development and bigger, sturdier and more uniform seedling size.

Faster decomposition

Trial Digester
Digester efficiently decomposes crop residue that fungal and bacterial pathogens survive on between crops, reducing disease pressure on consequent crops.
