Why Does EnviroMatrix ECM Work So Well?
Our perfectly balanced revegetation formula includes organic fibres, a volcanic mineral + TE-based fertiliser, a diverse range of beneficial bacteria and fungi, soil conditioners for building humus/carbon, and bio-compatible glues that bind mulch and soil particles together.
A vital part of the mix is a suite of 22 microbes. These microbes assist in creating a healthy ‘rhizosphere’ around the plant root, and in sourcing various mineral nutrients from the Troforte program revegetation fertiliser.
Australia’s leading soil scientists spent more than a decade perfecting the delicate blend of
essential ingredients that would ‘wake up’ unresponsive soil.
Key Ingredients
| Azotobacter | Free-living nitrogen fixers to convert atmospheric nitrogen in the soil. |
| Azospirillum | Produce plant growth hormones and biologically active substances. |
| Bacilli | Produce beneficial metabolites that are useful in plant protection, including lactic acid bacteria to help with soil condition structure. |
| Cellulolytic Fungi | Useful in the biodegradation, decomposition and recycling of cellulosic waste (i.e. stubble) into organic carbon. |
| Mycorrhiza (VAM) | Important biological components of soil life and soil chemistry. These convert nutrients and actively source phosphorus and other key minerals and harvest water. |
| Phosphorus Solubilizing Bacteria | Converts insoluable phosphorus (eg Rock P) into plan available "P". |
| Pseudomonas | Able to degrade a broad spectrum of compounds, acting as bio-remediators. |
| Streptomyces | Includes Actinobacteria. Helps control pathogenic microorganisms. |
| Saccharomyces | Important yeasts that convert carbon dioxide into organic carbon and sugars within the soil. |
| Trichoderma | Beneficial fungi that help to minimalise wilting and dampening of seedlings. Now being successfully utilised on a commercial scale for potential biological control of other pathogenic fungi. |
