Fish Emulsion
Fish emulsion is produced by heating fish waste at temperatures above 80 °C to extract oils and eliminate most putrefaction bacteria, resulting in a liquid residue that contains water-soluble nutrients and a moderate or low amount of oil-soluble nutrients .
Description
Fish Emulsion is a nutrient source for soil microbes which in turn improves soil health.
Fish Emulsion stimulates beneficial microbes to:
- Improve nutrient availability
- Reduce root disease
- Improve water penetration (heavy soils) & water retention
- Fish Emulsion also provides an important range of natural nutrients and amino acids which improve growth.
Soil Microbes
Research has consistently shown Fish Emulsion feeds soil microbes resulting in an increase in the activity and diversity of the resident microbial communities in the soil. The soil microbes improve soil health by improving moisture retention, infiltration, nutrient retention, nutrient availability and reduced disease.
