How to use

Dosing & application by crop

A simple, crop-by-crop guide to applying ekofertile® plant and microfertile® plant. All concentrations follow one rule: X litres of product per 100 litres of water. 

ekofertile® plant

Soil & foliar biostimulant — microbiome health, root growth, disease resistance, yield, sugar content, heat & drought tolerance.

microfertile® plant

Foliar biostimulant built for African conditions — boosts drought resilience, heat tolerance and photosynthesis so crops hold yield through dry spells, harsh sun and erratic rains.

How it works — in 3 steps

  1. Choose your cropStep 01

    Choose your crop

    Find your crop in the guide below — cereals, vegetables, fruit, vines, lawns or ornamentals.

  2. Mix the doseStep 02

    Mix the dose

    Dilute ekofertile® plant and/or microfertile® plant in clean water — always 'X litres of product per 100 L of water'. Example: a 5% mix = 5 L of ekofertile® plant (or microfertile® plant) into 100 L water.

  3. Apply at the right stageStep 03

    Apply at the right stage

    Soil drench, fertigation or foliar spray — timed with tillering, flowering, fruiting or pre-harvest dry spells.
