Using a Microbial Inoculant to Enhance your Soil and Garden

Using a Microbial Inoculant to Enhance your Soil and Garden

More and more gardeners are using inoculants and bio-stimulants for stimulating beneficial organism populations in the soil and in compost. Inoculating the soil ensures the soil is working at maximum capacity by promoting organic matter breakdown, nutrient utilisation and crop root development. All of these naturally occurring soil processes are important to the success of your garden and can be enhanced with the right microbial inputs. In New Zealand a trial tested microbial inoculant is effective microorganisms or EM.

What is EM?
EM was developed in Japan 30 years ago and is now a Global technology with an enormous following around the world. In New Zealand EM is used in many systems pertaining to agriculture, gardening and environmental management.

The Microbes in EM have demonstrated their effectiveness on ecosystem improvement of the soil micro flora, promotions of crop root development and recovery of polluted environments. This makes them ideal for getting the natural processes to function, the way nature intended.

Using Effective Microorganisms in your Garden
EM is organically certified and can be used in conjunction with many other fertilisers on the market to enhance nutrient uptake and soil fertility. Studies have shown the using EM allows you to use less fertiliser and get the same or better result. EM will ensure better crops and healthier plants and owers and is very cost eective. EM technology will improve:

• Seed germination and plant health
• Plant nutrient uptake
• The composting process (including bokashi composting)
• The soil in your lawn and garden
• Water quality
• Breakdown of sludge and odour in waste water
