TerraSanteTM for Soil and Ecological Health

MustGrow's soil amendment and biofertility development programs focus on soil and soil microbiome health, nutrient and water use efficiencies, and plant yields. Soil is a farmer's most valuable asset, and MustGrow's mustard plant-based technologies are being developed with the intention to improve not only the health of the soil, but also the surrounding ecological environment.

As an organic biofertilizer in soluble mixable form, TerraSanteTM contains nutritious plant proteins and carbohydrates that feed the soil and soil microbes, potentially improving beneficial microbial activity and ensuring long-term sustainable soil health. These targeted micro-communities have been shown to work to improve nutrient availability, which can potentially increase plant vigor and yields, while reducing plant stress. TerraSanteTM has the potential to improve crop nutrient uptake and, hence, overall crop performance. There are no artificial additives or preservatives used during its manufacturing.

In May 2024, MustGrow announced receipt of the California Department of Food Agriculture registration approval for its organic biofertility product TerraSanteTM, and also organic certification from California's Organic Input Material (OIM) Program, a specific California requirement beyond MustGrow's existing Organic OMRI Listed® certifications in Oregon and Washington State. MustGrow's California registration and organic certification is a key pillar in the commercialization strategy with BioAg Product Strategies. In addition to Idaho, and recently-awarded California, Oregon and Washington State, MustGrow expects to continue its efforts towards further state-level registrations in other pertinent U.S. states.
