Farming and agricultural methods have a significant impact on the food chain and cultivating a healthy soil is crucial for climate change resilience and the preservation of micro-organisms which play a vital role in breaking down organic matter and pollutants, with essential nutrients being absorbed by the plants.<\/p>\n<p>Organic fertilisers improve soil health and structure, generating not only a higher quantity and quality in the crop yield but also providing a considerable number of other benefits. The plant\u2019s resistance to disease is increased, with soil erosion and run-off reduced, resulting in a greater defence against periods of drought or the effects of soil salinity. Whereas synthetic fertilisers can cause pollution by run-off and leaching from farm land into the local rivers and groundwater, fertilising the soil with an organic product which is derived from animal or plant material aids the water supply not to be tainted.<\/p>\n<p>As organic fertilisers release nutrients into the soil gradually, seasonal growing can be extended without the need for additional spreading. This has potential cost-savings for farmers and agricultural growers. The demand for produce which is nutritious and locally produced is increasing in the UK, with both consumers and commercial buyers wanting to know the provenance of the product. Ongoing profitability is essential for the grower and organic fertilisers have a financial benefit, not only in contributing to an improved harvest but also in a reduction of soil tillage and reduction in input costs moving forward. The long-term advantages are also significant, with fertile land increasing in value for future generations or a return on investment.<\/p>\n<p>FGS Organics provides a comprehensive soil analysis service, ensuring the specific requirements are applied, avoiding over-fertilising. A personalised organic fertiliser management plan can also be drawn up relating to any individual sections of land and crop type. Prior to each crop rotation a soil assessment can be completed, with advice on how healthy plant growth can be achieved in the crop cycle by applying the right fertilisers at the right time to feed the soil, to feed the crop in a sustainable growth cycle.<\/p>\n<p>With a fleet of high-powered, advanced technological machines and with dedicated highly skilled in-house FGS Organics operatives, the environmentally friendly, cost-effective supply and application of organic fertilisers is always customer focused.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=&#8221;5382&#8243; img_size=&#8221;600&#215;400&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_rounded&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]With the consumer\u2019s increasing awareness of the need for environmentally sustainable practices to conserve natural resources, there is also an interest in green concepts and respect for the ecosystem.
