Plant Biostimulants That Deliver Results
Non-microbial plant biostimulants backed by peer-reviewed science. 22+ verified crop trials across 4 continents. Published in Nature Scientific Reports and Springer Environmental Sustainability.
Built for farmers, researchers and growers across Canada.
Canadian Agriculture Faces Growing Challenges
Farmers need solutions that work with nature, not against it.
Rising Input Costs
Fertilizer prices increased 40–80% since 2020, squeezing farm margins across the country.
Soil Degradation
Of Canadian agricultural soils show declining organic matter, threatening long-term productivity.
Climate Stress
More drought, heat, and frost events in the last decade are disrupting growing seasons.
Chemical Dependency
Regulatory pressure to reduce chemical inputs by 2030 demands new, effective alternatives.

Two Complementary Biostimulants for Every Growing Condition
ekofertile® plant and microfertile® plant are non-microbial plant biostimulants. Both affect soil and plants. Both can be applied foliar or by irrigation.
ekofertile® plant
pH ~4 | Heat Stress & Root Specialist
Low pH biostimulant ideal for heat and drought stress. Stimulates root growth and improves fruit quality (Brix).
- Heat and water stress tolerance — keeps plants vigorous
- Nutrient use efficiency — enhances N, P, K uptake and utilization
- Root development and yield — promotes deeper roots and higher production
- Fruit quality — improves Brix value and fructose content
microfertile® plant
pH ~7.5 | Cold Stress & Chlorophyll Booster
Neutral pH biostimulant designed for cold and frost tolerance. Better germination, green biomass and chlorophyll.
- Cold and frost tolerance — protects early growth stages
- Germination and green biomass — faster, more uniform emergence
- Chlorophyll and photosynthesis — increases leaf greenness and energy capture
- Vigour and early growth — stronger establishment, better performance
Important: Both products are non-microbial biostimulants — not fertilizers, not pesticides. Beneficial microorganisms generate active metabolites through patented bioleaching (biolixiviation), then die off during processing. Only beneficial metabolites and dissolved trace elements remain. These metabolites enhance plant stress tolerance and nutrient efficiency in the field. Both can be used together depending on crop stage and stress type.
Fermentation-Derived Metabolites
A patented three-step process delivers powerful plant benefits without live microorganisms.
Patented Bioleaching
Beneficial microorganisms generate active metabolites through patented bioleaching (biolixiviation) of natural minerals.
Processing
Microorganisms die off after bioleaching. Only beneficial metabolites and dissolved trace elements remain in the final product.
Application
Metabolites enhance plant stress tolerance and nutrient efficiency when applied as a foliar spray or through irrigation in the field.
The result:
Plants that are more resilient to abiotic stress (heat, drought, cold), utilize nutrients more efficiently, and deliver higher yields — all while reducing dependence on chemical inputs and revitalizing soil health.

Why Choose Our Biostimulants?
Proven advantages across yield, resilience, and sustainability.
Yield Increase
Up to +308% yield increase through natural activation of plant growth mechanisms, verified across 22+ crop types.
Abiotic Stress Resistance
Enhanced tolerance to drought, frost, salinity and extreme heat through Systemic Acquired Resistance (SAR) activation.
Indirect Disease Resistance
Silicate minerals strengthen cell walls, SAR/ISR triggers plant defence enzymes, and healthy soil microflora suppress pathogens. 100% indirect — not a biopesticide.
Improved Root Structure
Enriches the rhizosphere with humic substances and organic acids, improving soil structure and root exploration up to 40% deeper.
Cost Reduction
Reduce chemical fertilizer inputs by 20–50% while maintaining or improving yields through improved fertilizer use efficiency (FUE).
Soil Quality Improvement
Restoration of natural soil fertility and increased microbial biodiversity. Compatible with both organic and conventional farming systems.
