Amended and regularly fertilized with all of the macro and micro-minerals needed to support biological function and optimal health for plants & people.

Application of nutrients are time with the growth phase of the plant to encourage maximum uptake of nutrients while preventing nutrient leaching. This ensures the maximum health of our plants, communities, waterbodies and reefs!

Our farmers develop a routine for feeding our crops in a way that facilitates nutrient cycling and sequestering carbon and nitrogen from the atmosphere. We use practices to increase total organic carbon (TOC) in our soil. TOC is the carbon (C) stored in soil organic matter (SOM). Total organic carbon is also referred to as soil organic carbon (SOC) in the scientific literature. Organic carbon enters the soil through the decomposition of plant and animal residues, root exudates, and living and dead microorganisms. Inorganic carbon is common in calcareous soils in the form of calcium and magnesium carbonates. In calcareous soils, the content of inorganic carbon can exceed TOC.

Minerals in the soil provide nutrients for plants. Not all minerals in the soil can be used by plants. Plants depend on symbiotic relationships with micro-organisms in the soil to ‘mine’ the minerals in the soil and make it available for the plants to use. We use practices to create a diverse soil microbiome, strengthen the root system and rhizsophere of our crops, and to break-up compacted soil to restore the cycling of nutrients at both the subsoil and topsoil level.
