The rainfall and flooding that has hit the UK recently have posed farmers up and down the UK with unprecedented challenges setting usual progress back immeasurably. Grant James, Business Development Manager at Sea2Soil says regenerative farming - which harnesses the natural capabilities of fish hydrolysate - could be the answer to boosting soil health and claw back lost time. Following one of the wettest winters on record, adverse weather conditions have delayed arable and livestock farms from carrying out even the most basic of tasks, despite typically being the busiest time of the year.&nbs...

We are currently working with Nottingham University soil dept looking at microbial activity related to S2S. Working with Notts Uni we are comparing regeneration agriculture with conventional agriculture practices to establish the level of microbial increase using Sea2Soil as the fungi/bacteria food the underground livestock require. Both glasshouse and farm trials will be the used to establish short to long term results on an independent basis. Completed by this summer the results should be available for the Autumn applications of Sea2Soil through UK distribution. Also, work is underway with...

Sea2Soil invests in next-phase trials in partnership with Nottingham University to research how the soil improver encourages essential microbial activity  As we move into the third year since our first farmer-led trials, the Sea2Soil team is excited to announce that next-phase research and development is currently underway.  In partnership with the Nottingham University Soil Department, we are investing time and money into how Sea2Soils’ performance stacks up against traditional farming methods. By comparing regeneration agriculture with conventional agriculture practices we’re working...

Signs of Spring are everywhere, and while work in the world of agriculture never stops, this month we will see efforts ramp up - from the drilling, or sowing, of the sugar beet to fertilising and crop spraying. At a local level, we may still only be seeing the seeds of regenerative agriculture taking hold, but as reported in the Financial Times recently, at a global level, the well-coined phrase is now ‘firmly cemented in corporate parlance’ as well as across some of ‘the sustainability plans of big food companies such as Nestlé, Unilever and Danone’. With leaps being made ‘up ther...

There’s no denying that agriculture and all of us working within it, have landed at a very interesting turning point.  The times ahead are undoubtedly exciting, they hold incomparable potential and opportunity in fact. As we begin to navigate through a massive transformation, following the last 50 years of reliance on NPK, industry evolution has been steady, and change has been minimal.   It’s hard to predict the future, otherwise, we’d all be millionaires, but that element of the unknown is where I believe we can tap into a whole new approach; led by creative thinking an...
