January 2025
The agricultural landscape is transforming, and at the forefront of this change is Bontera BioAg, leveraging the power of beneficial soil microbes to drive sustainable farming practices. Since its inception in 2014, Bontera has developed innovative microbial products that not only enhance soil fertility but also improve crop health and yields. These solutions, inspired by nature, are designed to restore soil vitality while reducing dependency on chemical fertilizers and pesticides.
How Bontera BioAg Is Making an Impact
Bontera’s microbial products are tailored to support plants throughout their growth cycle—addressing critical phases such as seed germination, root and shoot development, photosynthesis, flowering, and fruiting. For instance:
- Phosphate Solubilization: Bontera’s "Phospho-Release" product uses phosphate-solubilizing bacteria (PSB) to free soil-bound phosphate, making it readily available for growing plants.
- Root Health Protection: The OMRI-listed "Bontera Tricho Power" improves the rhizosphere environment while safeguarding roots from nematodes and soil-borne diseases.
- Nitrogen Fixation: "Bontera Nitrofix" leverages nitrogen-fixing microbes to convert atmospheric nitrogen into a usable form, reducing reliance on synthetic fertilizers and mitigating greenhouse gas emissions.
Advanced Solutions for Plant Health
Bontera also addresses challenges such as foliar diseases and nutrient deficiencies with products like:
- Bontera PC-10: A biofertilizer that enhances systemic resistance to diseases by improving plant immunity.
- Bontera Del Mar: A nutrient-rich seaweed-based solution that boosts growth and stress tolerance.
Additionally, the revolutionary "Bontera Seed Coat" combines beneficial microbes, nutrients, and pH modulators in a seed coating, promoting optimal germination and early-stage plant development while reducing labor and application costs for farmers.
A Commitment to Innovation
With its global R&D facilities and expertise in microbial coatings, Bontera is constantly developing new solutions to meet the needs of farmers worldwide. Their products, like the multifunctional "Bontera SA-10 Microbial Soil Enhancer," demonstrate a commitment to improving soil health and sustainability.
Bontera’s focus on leveraging nature’s advanced materials—beneficial soil microbes—ensures that farmers can achieve higher yields while preserving the environment. By fostering sustainable practices, Bontera BioAg is not only addressing current agricultural challenges but also paving the way for a more resilient farming future.
