 “So simple. So easy!”
Jonty and Mary Wall have been running a BioAg soil and pasture programme on ‘Riverside’, a 640Ha rolling hill country property near Martinborough, Wairarapa, for just over 2 ½ years commencing in April 2008. Having made the decision to farm biologically they have been pleasantly surprised at the progress made in such a short time. "I started out with a 3 to 5 year timeframe in mind. We find it hard to believe how much progress we’ve made so quickly and we’re really looking forward to seeing where we’ll get to in the next few years".

Bill Hunt, Ratanui Farm, Otaki, has been back on the family farm for over 40 years. Bill has always been a ‘low chemical input’ farmer preferring to follow nature rather than read labels on bottles and bags to find answers to profitable dairying. | | Read more... |
The boys at BioAg asked me to pass on my experiences with their product “RumiMate”. I have been using the product for 9 months on my performance and breaker horses and I noticed changes with them within the first 3-4 weeks. | | Read more... |
 In New Zealand we have 171 native worm species and 23 non-native species. Earthworms and compost worms process soil and organic matter but are actually sustained mainly by the consumption of bacteria. In 24 hours a worm processes the equivalent of its own bodyweight of soil. The castings are largely colloidal soluble humus – at least five times richer in plant available nutrients than surrounding soil.

| BioAg liquid biologicals feed organisms in the soil and they multiply extremely rapidly - this frantic breeding produces heat. The top few centimetres of biologically active soils can be 2-3 degrees Celcius warmer than similar soil low in biological life. Think of the influence that this added warmth created by active biology could have on pasture and plant growth, as well as lessening the impact of frost severity and devastation. |
Following extensive Australian trials, BioAg’s new effluent treatment, Digest-it for Dairies, is now proving itself in NZ. Hardly surprising – as one of the research team put it - “pooh is pooh”. Digest-it for Dairies has been developed to digest dairy effluent sludge by promoting aerobic bacterial metabolism thereby stimulating microbial breakdown of organic matter. | | Read more... |
