CARBOterra

Solid amendment of enhanced functional carbon that structures the soil and houses its microbiology.

  • Made in Paraguay
  • Local raw material
  • Enhanced functional carbon

What it is

A solid amendment of stable carbon, loaded with composted organic matter, organomineral rock and native microbiology. It is not just another fertiliser: it is the physical and biological support where soil life settles and multiplies.

Why it works

Structure and porosity

Macro- and micropores that improve aeration and water movement and reduce the effects of compaction.

Water retention

The internal surface holds available water and buffers water stress. It works like a sponge.

Nutrient retention

Improves cation exchange capacity and reduces leaching losses: the fertiliser yields more.

Microbial habitat

Its porosity creates microhabitats where the microbiology settles and multiplies. It works like a home.

Deeper roots

Healthier, deeper and more branched roots, with better exploration of the soil profile.

Stable carbon

Slow release of minerals, a pH-neutralising effect and carbon that stays for decades.

Dose and application

SystemDoseApplication method
Broadacre crops300–600 kg/haBroadcast or in the seed row
Horticulture120 g/m²Incorporated into the substrate
ForestryIn the planting holeIn the planting hole, with a biological drench
Pastures300 kg/haBroadcast, within the recovery protocol
Gardens1 kg/m² · 50 kg/treeDo not bury deeper than 3 cm; for trees, at 10–15 cm within a 60–80 cm radius

Stable solid product. The final dose is set on the soil study; our technical team adjusts it plot by plot.
