Sustainable Farming through a healthy Soil Foodweb

Soil Foodweb International (NZ)

The team at SFI NZ is fully committed to assisting growers and farmers to achieve true sustainable soil fertility without the need for toxic and costly chemicals. This enables you to improve crop yields and the returns on your investment.  You’d be amazed at how cost effective our programs actually are and how beneficial it can be to have a professional on your team to guide you through the processes involved. 

We are soil rehabilitation specialists and by utilising our services you will learn how you can manage and maintain a balanced and healthy soil.  A key benefit is the reduction of artificial chemical inputs and an increase in the soil biology.  Disease suppression is substantially enhanced and water usage generally declines.
 
Achieving the right biology enhances these key functions:
 
Disease protection - minimizes the need for pesticides
Nutrient immobilization – reduces leaching
Nutrient availability - optimal forms in the right place at the right time
Decomposition of toxins - removes harmful residues
Root health, root depth, water retention, aerobic conditions in soil and improved soil
structure - less watering needed, lessen your dependence on fertilizers

Ultimately if you don’t know what organisms are present in your soil and on your plants’ leaves, then much of your management is being left to chance!

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The Solution
 
Since our inception, we have worked with thousands of growers throughout New Zealand to improve the health and productivity of their soils.  We assess soil, compost, compost tea, leaf, vermicast and various other biological products for micro-organisms (fungi, bacteria, protozoa, nematodes, and mycorrhizal fungi). 
 
With this information we are able to devise the right management plans tailored to your specific needs so as to achieve a sustainable, productive and low-input system. The large numbers of NZ samples that have been analysed by our laboratory has enabled us to gain a comprehensive understanding of micro-organism balance and function specific to the wide range of crops, soils and climates that are within New Zealand.
 
Working with many input suppliers and consultants we are able to adapt the farmers existing nutrient program to facilitate a smooth transition from traditional 'mineral only replacement' to biological production. This holistic approach ensures the complete system is revamped; creating healthy soil, crops, stock, and people. The team at SFI is fully committed to assisting growers achieve true sustainable soil fertility drastically minimizing the need for toxic and costly chemicals.
 
Our goal is to enable you to improve crop & livestock yields and achieve a greater return on your investment.
