Harnessing Solar Power for Sustainable Energy Solutions.

• Past agricultural practices, including the heavy use of chemical and mineral fertilizers, led to the depletion of soil life and fertility, exacerbating the loss of viable farming land.
• Sunil Misra recognized the crucial role of soil biology in nutrient uptake by plants and dedicated his life to developing a controlled release fertilizer that targets soil microbes rather than plant roots.
• Microscopic organisms in the soil play vital roles in plant health, aiding in nutrient availability, root health protection, and moisture absorption. Enhancing populations of beneficial microbes can significantly improve soil fertility and plant growth.
• Sunil Misra and others initiated a movement known as biomineral technologies, focusing on identifying and boosting specific beneficial bacteria and fungi to improve soil fertility and crop outcomes.
• Troforte decades of research and collaboration with universities, Troforte technology, utilizing a unique suite of microbes and mineral nutrients, has been successfully used by farmers and home gardeners to rejuvenate nutrient-deficient soils, improve crop yields, and reduce chemical inputs.
• Troforte technology has shown remarkable results in increasing soil carbon levels, even in highly productive soils, due to the proliferation and decomposition of beneficial microbes, which contributes to soil health and fertility.
