Organic Soil Fertilizer in Hotchkiss, CO

There’s a common misconception that unhealthy plants and poor yields are direct results of pests, disease or other external factors. However, these factors are not always the problem—it may likely be a symptom of unhealthy soil instead. Introducing biological products and organic soil fertilizer will help condition the soil and restore its natural balance by reintroducing biological components back into the soil biology.

Tainio Biologicals

In our current farming practices throughout Hotchkiss, Delta, Crawford, and Paonia, CO, we sometimes destroy or reduce our beneficial soil bacteria and fungi by tilling for example, which exposes these organisms to the sun and elements. We can reintroduce biological components back into the soil.
We utilize Tainio Biological products to reinvest in the biological structure of soil, to reinvigorate its ability to be sustaining. This industry-leading brand offers a myriad of products including inoculants, compost digesters, foliar fertilizers, enzymes and bioremediation mixtures. Find out more information about the full line of Tainio Biological products.
Tainio is a family-run business established in 1985 by Bruce Tainio. For almost thirty years they have successfully helped growers throughout the United States and the world to produce healthy, high-yielding crops.

  • Residuce is an organic water-soluble, biological product. When used with some of the products below, such as 1.6 OZ of Residuce per acre, with Drammatic ONE fish and SP-1, a nitrogen source and Humate, residue will break down biologically. This builds organic matter from residue and utilizes more of trace minerals for next year’s crop. One pound of Residuce bacteria will cover 10 acres. They also improve “Crop Residue Management” by providing bacteria, fungi, amino acids, enzymes, minerals, trace elements to build organic matter. This product is designed to be used on crops that have high amounts of residue after harvest. Studies have shown that when 70 bushels of wheat is produced, the straw residue contains 45lbs of nitrogen, 22lbs of phosphate, 110lbs of potassium, and 500lbs of calcium. So why not utilize this already-paid-for-residue to nourish next year’s crop? Find out more about Residuce.

Biomin

Biomin is a liquid mineral for soil & foliar applications. Many of my customers have found the Biomin products help them address the minor mineral deficiencies in their fields through the irrigation season and, as a rescue for deficiencies in orchards, grapes, hops, industrial hemp etc.
When a deficiency is noticed in the orchard, for example, the liquid mineral can be applied through foliar application, usually ounces per acre, with other biological needs several times per growing season.
