Introduction: The Challenge of Depleted Soils

As global agricultural lands face declining soil fertility, there is an urgent need for sustainable solutions. Traditional chemical fertilisers have proven insufficient in restoring soil health. Enter BioRoc™—a game-changing fertiliser derived from mine tailings.


The Science Behind BioRoc™

BioRoc™ is created through a water-based, non-toxic leaching process that extracts nutrients from mine waste. Unlike conventional fertilisers, it replenishes soil with natural minerals, enhancing both nutrient availability and soil structure. A yearly application of just 2 tonnes per acre restores topsoil, ensuring long-term soil fertility.


Proven Success in Almond Orchards

A case study in Stevinson Ranch Almond Orchard demonstrated BioRoc™’s efficacy, yielding a 75% increase in almond production within one year. This remarkable outcome underscores BioRoc™’s potential to transform crop production, particularly in nutrient-depleted regions.


Economic and Environmental Impact

Not only is BioRoc™ cost-competitive, but it also supports sustainable farming by reducing water usage and repurposing bio-waste. By avoiding landfill disposal and methane emissions, it contributes to both environmental preservation and energy generation.


Conclusion: A Sustainable Fertiliser Solution for the Future

BioRoc™ stands at the forefront of a new era in agriculture. By turning mining waste into a resource, it offers a practical solution to soil depletion, helping farmers increase yields while protecting the planet.
