Fish Hydrolysate™
Fish hydrolysates are a source of readily available organic nitrogen and can be especially useful when this is needed to improve the C : N ratio in the soil. They are also beneficial in stimulating growth and activity of many micro-organisms. The net effect is an increase in the potential for nitrogen cycling and also a somewhat reduced requirement for nitrogen inputs to some crops and pasture.

Application notes
Lower application rates (2 L/ha) appear to stimulate fungi and cellulose utilisers that do not respond well to high Nitrogen. Higher rates (10 L/ha) appear to promote photosynthetic bacteria and actinomycetes and suppress lactic acid bacteria
