This part of our technology focuses specifically on soil as a growing medium, the foundational element for plants. It is often said that soil is the basis of everything, and we fully agree. When soil structure and biology are optimal, plants receive sufficient nutrients and moisture to sustain both primary and secondary metabolism.
This technology includes elements developed to support non-irrigated
growing systems. It increases the current growing depth, typically a few dozen
centimeters, to up to 1.5 meters of humus-rich medium. This structured, living
soil acts like a sponge, absorbing and storing excess rainfall for drier
periods, which is why we call it a water-retention technology.
A variant of our water-retention technology goes beyond water
absorption, focusing on increasing soil humus formation and enhancing
biological activity. This version can be applied to all soil-based cultivation
systems, creating a rich, biologically active growing environment.
It's no coincidence that the microbial communities found in plant roots
function similarly to the human gut biome. These communities digest nutrients
for the plants and provide them with the energy and nutrients they need for
defense and growth. By enhancing soil structure and biology, we can transform
semi-arid land into a thriving oasis using water-retention technology.
