What they're saying out in the field.
-
The root structure is just incredible, the nodulation we’ve been seeing. Our plants have been putting more energy into growing up instead of growing out.”

We had the best crops we’ve ever had with record-breaking yields.”

— Grant Matthews

-
Our crops were growing a lot better with Holganix. They were going through a lot of stress. I think Holganix helps with that stress tremendously.”

-
I’ve seen increased soil tilth, the ground’s softer in the spring, and plant health of soybean and corn both produced the highest yields we’ve ever seen.”

-
We are applying Holganix at a half gallon an acre across everything, broadcasting it. It’s really simple to work with. Putting it into the sprayer we just pump it into one of the inductors on the tender trailer and pump it right on.”

A Line in the Soil.
A Nebraska farmer used Holganix on half his soybean field. The difference between this acreage and the half that went untreated is that Pill Bug damage devastated the untreated side. See the side-by-side comparison.

Income Calculations
Control Yield Income:
Control Yield Income = Target Yield × Crop Value × Acres
Holganix Yield Income:
Holganix Yield Income = Holganix Impact × Crop Value × Acres
Total Gross Income:
Total Gross Income = Control + Holganix
Expense Calculations
Control Input Cost:
Control Input Cost = (N Price × N Input) + (P Price × P Input) + (K Price × K Input) + Tillage Cost
Includes NPK fertilizer costs and tillage expenses
Cost of Holganix:
Cost of Holganix = Selected Cost × Acres
Total Input Cost:
Total Input Cost = Control + Holganix
Savings Calculations
For each nutrient (N, P, K):
Reduction (lbs/ac):
Reduction (lbs/ac) = Current Input × (Reduction % ÷ 100)
Reduction ($/ac):
Reduction ($/ac) = Reduction lbs × Price
Tillage Savings:
Tillage Savings = (Current Tillage Cost - New Tillage Cost) × Acres
Tillage costs based on selected practices
Total Savings:
Total Savings = Sum of all reductions × Acres
ROI Calculations
ROI per Acre:
ROI per Acre = (Holganix Yield Income + Total Savings - Cost of Holganix) ÷ Acres
Total Production ROI:
Total Production ROI = ROI per Acre × Acres
