Fruit and Nut Crops

Fruit and nut crops rely on balanced nutrition and a thriving soil microbiome to establish strong roots and support fruit and nut development. Metagen’s biostimulant treatments are designed to:

· Suppress Soil-borne Diseases: Beneficial microbes outcompete harmful pathogens for space and resources and produce natural antibiotics, creating a robust microbial barrier that reduces disease incidence and strengthens plant resilience over successive applications.

· Enhance Nutrient Availability: Soil microbes break down organic matter, releasing nitrogen and phosphorus and improving nutrient cycling to make essential nutrients more accessible to deep roots for vigorous canopy growth.

· Improve Soil Structure: Microbes produce sticky substances that bind soil particles, enhancing soil structure, aeration, water infiltration, and root penetration throughout the soil profile.

· Drive Productivity and Resilience: By cultivating a diverse, active microbiome, these treatments deliver better productivity and system resilience for more consistent yields and long-term crop performance.

Application Methods for Fruit and Nut Crops

Digestor:

Rate: 4–10 L/Ha

Method: Drip or micro-sprinkler irrigation; spread with compost; or band spray.

Frequency: Every 4-6 months.
