The Regenerative Soil Primer

The Regenerative Soil Primer typically consists of Rejuvenate, SeaShield, and an inoculant like Spectrum applied to the soil in the fall and/or in the spring to increase soil biology. The program has been observed to:

• Increase porosity and soil tilth

• Digest crop residue rapidly

• Improve organic matter

• Decrease chance of overwintering disease

• Boost microbial population

• Increase bioavailability of macro- and micronutrients in the soil 

• Build natural resistance to disease and insect pests

How does the program increase soil biology?

Part 1: Microbial Inoculant

​

Spectrum™ contains a multiple species blend of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) and other beneficial plant growth promoting microorganisms (PGPMs). This specially formulated soil inoculant enhances and restores beneficial soil microbe populations to augment the natural mineralization processes that occur in healthy soils.

Part 2: Bacterial Food & Shelter

​

Rejuvenate™ is a blend of carbohydrates, enzyme cofactors, and humic substances designed to provide the commonly missing resources needed by fledgling bacterial populations, which are the base of your farm ecosystem. Rejuvenate ensures a successful inoculation event, getting microbes established in all manner of conditions.

Part 3: Fungal Food

​

SeaShield™ is a combination of biologically active organic compounds from fish, crab, and shrimp. SeaShield is an available source of nutrients for microbes and plants. The amino acid nitrogen supports the growth of beneficial fungal populations, which are often seriously lacking in farmed soils and contribute greatly to the fertility cycling of a crop.

Why should I apply the soil primer?

In the spring, growing and developing crops need an abundance of nutrients, chiefly calcium and nitrogen, from the soil. With the Regenerative Soil Primer, soils can provide the nutrients needed for crop quality and disease resistance.

There are several ways to effectively get the Soil Primer down into the soil

• Watering can

• Handheld or backpack sprayer

• Boom sprayer

• Fertigation

FAQs

If I cannot afford all three Soil Primer products, is there one you recommend?

We recommend all three since they each bring very different characteristics. If you have to choose between the three Regenerative Soil Primer products, we recommend Rejuvenate™ as it is a nutrient-packed food source for soil microbial communities. Please note that this product will not get your soil biology started if there is none in your soil at the time of application.
