Bio-Sustain Root Boost
Root Development
Bio-Sustain Root Boost contains bacteria cultures including Bacillus and Pseudomonas. These microorganisms in produce hormones and enzymes that promote plant cell and root division. They use the amino acids and sugars secreted by the photosynthetic bacteria and plant roots and in turn give off substances which are beneficial growing compounds for microbes. So all three species have a separate role to play, and help each other. They also have a symbiotic or mutually beneficial relationship with the roots of plants. So plants grow exceptionally well and root structure is significantly improved in soils dominated by these microorganisms. The microorganisms also produce strong sterilizing compounds that suppress disease including pathogens and nematode populations. It also contributes to the fermentation and breakdown of the tough cellulose and lignin.
Examples
The image to the above shows a Soyabean crop of which part had been treated with Bio-Sustain Root Boost and a control. Most visible is the high number of fibrous roots on the treated plants compared with the control. This coupled with a higher density of roots shows what Rootboost can do when applied to the soil, and the impact it can have on developing crop root structure. The images below show examples of roots (transplant trial to the right and rice on the left) treated with Bio-Sustain Root Boost compared with an untreated control.
Below we have a trial run at a golf course which shows the impact of using Bio-Sustain Root Boost (right) compared with the untreated control (left) on the root density
