We are excited to introduce two innovative soil improvers; TERRAVIT NutriGuard and TERRAVIT DroughtGuard. TERRAVIT NutriGuard enhances nutrient utilization efficiency, promoting soil fertility and healthy crops. TERRAVIT DroughtGuard improves water-holding capacity and fortifies crops against drought and salinity, ensuring optimal performance in challenging conditions.
TERRAVIT NutriGuard and TERRAVIT DroughtGuard are coated crumbs and have a foundation of insect frass. Insect frass is a sustainable by-product of insect breeding and consists of the excrement and exoskeletons of insects. Its high C:N ratio makes it a valuable soil improver. As it decomposes, it adds organic material to the soil, enhancing soil structure, moisture retention, and nutrient availability. Insect frass also is a natural source of chitin which stimulates microbial activity and improves plant- and soil resilience.
| C:N ratio The Carbon-to-Nitrogen (C:N) ratio provides information about the balance between carbon-rich and nitrogen-rich components. A high C:N ratio indicates that the soil improver is rich in carbon relative to nitrogen. In general, soil improvers and organic fertilizers with a high C:N ratio are slower to decompose by microbes, providing a steady release of nutrient and help with the build-up of organic matter. This results in more stable organic matter that promotes, among others, improved soil structure, water-holding capacity, microbial activity and carbon sequestration. |
TERRAVIT NutriGuard – Optimizing Nutrient Use Efficiency
With a blend of insect frass, calcium, and zeolite, TERRAVIT NutriGuard increases nutrient use efficiency and reduces losses, leading to healthier crops and improved fertilizer efficiency. Calcium improves soil structure and nutrient uptake, while zeolite acts as a nutrient reservoir, preventing leaching and runoff.

TERRAVIT DroughtGuard – Fortifying crops against Drought
Facing unpredictable weather patterns and drought periods? TERRAVIT DroughtGuard can improve soil conditions to cope with droughts and improve crop resilience. Its blend of insect frass, calcium, silicon (from diabase), and bentonite enhances water-holding capacity and resilience, helping soil conserve moisture efficiently and withstand drought and salinity stress.
