Fish IT Fish Hydrolysate feeds your soil microbiology.

Improve plant health, animal health, reduce inputs, and save money with Fish IT – Whole Salmon Fish Hydrolysate.

Soil is complex and there is one thing that is necessary to ensure your soil is working for you – feeding your soil biology. As with any living thing, your soils micro-biology requires food to function efficiently doing its job of freeing up and cycling the nutrients already in your soil.

Fish by-products (fish hydrolysate) can improve nutrient uptake, nutritional efficiency, plant yields and the quality of products.

Fish IT Farmer & Grower Stories

“The health of our seedlings has improved dramatically.”

“We were doing 1.7kg/ms and now we are doing 2.5kg/ms.”

“It’s not a significant amount & it’s not a significant cost.”

“I am so enthusiastic about using the biology in the soil.”

Healthy animals start in the soil.

Healthy animals produce more millk,
better quality meat, and have less impact
on the environment.
When your soil is healthy and a vibrant
eco-system of micro-organisms lives in
the soil your plants will be healthier
containing more nutrients, be tastier for
livestock grazing those pastures, resulting
in healthier animals.

Healthy soils start with Fish IT.

Nutrient cycling in the soil makes
nutrients available to the plant. Soil
biology – bacteria and fungi – form a
symbiotic relationship where they
exchange nutrients, proteins & sugars.
When this eco-system is active and
healthy, nutrients are available to the
plant resulting in nutritious pastures and
healthy plants.

Healthy plants start in the soil.

When nutrients are available in the soil to
the plant they use these nutrients to
grow. Typically, soils lock up nutrients
due to over application of fertilisers.
Unlocking the locked up nutrients in the
soil is essential to reducing inputs and
growing healthy plants. A healthy soil
microbiome means nutrients are
available to plants.

WHAT TO LOOK FOR WHEN USING FISH IT

Healthier animals due to reduced synthetic N inputs.

A return, or higher presence, of worms.

Visible presence of fungi & bacteria.

Reduced incidence of pests.

Improved soil structure & water holding capacity

Animals that love the improved taste of feed.

Large, prevelant, natural N fixing clover.

Reduced need for capital fert inputs.

Building healthy soil with Fish IT Whole Salmon Fish Hydrolysate will help to reduce costly synthetic inputs, saving you money and improving environmental
outcomes.

There's a difference and it is an important one.

 

Fish hydrolysates have been used for centuries to provide agriculture and horticulture with a source of biostimulant products to enhance soil life, nutrient uptake and cycling. In todays industrial world common fish based hydrolysates are merely a by-product of the much larger commercial fish processing industry where all the ‘good’ parts of the fish are processed for human consumption. What’s left is the stuff noone else wants.

 

Fish IT Whole Salmon Fish Hydrolysate uses only the whole mortality salmon provided by the Stewart Island King Salmon farms meaning your soil is getting the benefits of highly available protiens, fatty acids, amino acids etc. of the entire fish.
