Andrew and Tammy farm 160 hectares of cropping land north of Christchurch, continuously seeking ways to improve soil health and crop productivity. Their experience with Living Earth Organic Compost has delivered outstanding results, transforming their land and yields.
Applying over 30 tonnes of compost per hectare, they observed remarkable improvements in their wheat crops, including an estimated 30% increase in both straw and seed yields. Andrew notes, "We have also noted a huge improvement in plant health and colour, as well as massive increases in Red Clover, which were unexpected bonuses from using Living Earth Compost. Our use of Living Earth Compost has been the solution to achieving healthy, productive soils on our land."
