Natural Activ®-Bio is a rich soil stimulating fertilizer which contains a large number of Mycorrhizal fungi (Globus spp.) and natural ingredients, such as horn meal and mollases extract, that stimulate soil microbial activity. Approved for use on organic holdings. More details below.

Organic Ferilizer with Mycorrhiza Inoculant

Natural Activ®-Bio 7-3-7 (N-P₂O₅-K₂O) is a rich fertiliser made from residues of food production, ground rock phosphate, horn meal and living mycorrhiza fungi (Glomus spp.). Mycorrhiza are beneficial fungi growing in association with plant roots, and exist by taking sugars from plants ‘in exchange’ for moisture and nutrients gathered from the soil by the fungal strands. The mycorrhizas greatly increase the absorptive area of a plant, acting as extensions to the root system. 

  • Research proves that mycorrhiza fungi have an extraordinary capacity to support growth, form important phytohormones and helps to reduce weather and pest related stress.
  • Plants develop a larger root system, are healthier, grow faster, have more flowers and produce higher yields.
  • Natural Activ-bio contains a large number of the Mycorrhizal fungi (Globus spp.) plus other micro-organisms as well as Vinasse (rich in Potash) and plant materials from vegetable processing.
  • Natural Activ-bio is suitable as a main fertilizer for potatoes, vegetables, roses, other flowers and lawns.
  • Especially useful for no dig and min-till gardening.

Mycorrhizae: Nature's Stress Managers

Since fungal threads can grow many metres from the roots and are microscopically thin, they end up in places where roots can never reach. This makes the extended root system hundreds of times greater than for plants that must make do without these auxiliaries, making it much easier for them to absorb water and nutrients.

Mycorrhiza fungi take care of the living interface between the absorbing root system and the soil biology. An ample number of scientific studies show that the presence of useful mycorrhiza fungi noticeably improves plant health. They can also make do with less fertiliser. In addition, organic fertilisers are utilised better. The mycorrhizae thereby support plant resistance; they improve growth and the crop produces more fruit of better quality.

Plants with mycorrhizae are more resistant to drought, severe temperature variations, pH changes, toxic metals and soil compacting. Mycorrhizae also ensure better soil structure due to their contribution to forming ‘soil aggregates’.
