Strategies to increase soil biology

Compost extract containing hundreds of species of beneficial bacteria, fungi, protozoa and nematodes will be applied to 6 plots. Data will be collected on grass growth rate, grass mineral analysis, sap test & brix, Haney test for soil health, and infiltration rates. 

This TOF will contribute to the Sustainable Land Management outcomes including:

  • Reduce, reuse and recycle inputs, nutrients and waste 
  • Reduce on farm emissions and maximise carbon sequestration 
  • Protect and enhance the farm ecosyste
