Just as the infographic above demonstrates, healthy soil is functional because of the microbes that reside there. 

In fact, healthy, active soil has thousands of microbial species and billions of individual microbes that perform tasks like converting nutrients, suppressing disease, and breaking down organic matter. The functions microbes serve are so critical to plant health, that plants spend about 30% of their energy feeding and attracting microbes to the root zone. 

Holganix Bio 800+ Agriculture charges soils with over 800 species of soil microbes to improve soil health and crop yield. Because Holganix Bio 800+ Agriculture is diverse, it’s able to provide a multitude of benefits depending on what the soil and plant need. 

In general, when it comes to growing produce, Holganix Bio 800+ Agriculture: 

  1. Increases crop yield
  2. Promotes soil health
  3. Improves root architecture
  4. Builds stronger plants that are better able to fight against environmental stressors like disease and weather
  5. Boosts brix index
