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.
