Soil Health
Mineralization
Our microorganisms process and mineralize the carbon as well as other nutrients from leaves and plant compounds. From the degraded carbon, humates, and fulvines develop. These act as transport systems and provide minerals into the root structure. Due to their negative charge, they bind heavy metals and prevent them from penetrating the plant.
Mobilization of Phosphorus Reserves in the Soil
Both our mycorrhiza and our fungi have thin and fast-growing roots called hyphae. Tierra Nua-Hyphen behave like a sponge that retains and stores water. They form a structure that prevents the soil from washing out.
The hyphae grow both vertically and horizontally, cross-linking your soil and acting as a nutrient distribution system. Within this system, thanks to our microorganisms, a solution of phosphorus, sugar and other molecules is formed, which is delivered via the hyphae to the root hair of your plant.
Phosphorus does not wash out – but even a distance of 1 mm to a root is too far for the root hair to reach it. Hyphae build networks that bind these nutrients and help deliver them to the root system of your plants.
Nitrogen from Nematodes
Our fungi act as a barrier and prevent nematodes from damaging
the plant. In fact, fungi catch and consume invading nematodes,
thereby releasing more nitrogen into the soil.

Microorganisms
Natural Plant Boost
“Producing more food from plants while using fewer resources may sound too good to be true, but the world’s growers have trillions of potential partners to help achieve this ambitious goal. These partners
are microorganisms.”
Microbiologists have documented events in which bacteria, fungi, nematodes – even viruses – have formed mutually beneficial compounds with food crops. These compounds improve the plant’s ability to absorb nutrients and increase resistance to drought, disease, and pests.
Microorganisms help plants better tolerate temperature fluctuations, salt soils, and other challenges of climate change. It is proven that microorganisms can better develop the aroma and taste of their quality fruits. But what does all this mean for growers and farmers? The answers go back thousands of years, back to the beginnings of life on Earth.
Whenever a seed germinates or a plant is planted, the microbial community that helps the species grow is also activated. By sweating out the plant, chemical signals enter the soil that set a variety of activities in motion. Genetic information is exchanged and various “microbial players” position themselves on the tissues of the plant. In many cases, microorganisms cooperate to jointly provide the plant with a “service”.

Water Supply
Irrigation Flexibility
Tierra Nua creates robust plant and soil structures and enables water-storing. While our carbon particles, clumps and humates retain water thanks to their polarized structures, our fungi and mycorrhiza store moisture by making the soil sponge-like. When the upper soil is moist, the exchange between ions and minerals continues.
Nutrient Cycle
Utilization of Carbon
Our product contains microorganisms that can absorb carbon from the air and bring it to Earth. They also break down lignin and cellulose from foliage (leaf waste) into smaller, water-soluble carbon particles. Tierra Nuahyphae act like sponges that bind water and are responsible for clumping. Their structure protects the soil from run-off. Hyphae provide phosphorus, sugar and other molecules to the root hairs of your crops. Fulvic acid and humic acid are naturally occurring molecules. They have several negatively charged pockets that allow cations to attach and be transported into the crop system. Our microorganisms ensure the organic-chemical balance between these microsystems. Our microorganisms (fungi, mycorrhiza and bacteria) increase the CEC value in your soil samples and ensure the organic-chemical exchange of anions and cations among the various living organisms that make up the microbiome and microsystem of your topsoil.
Utilization of Carbon
Some of our microorganisms use nitrogen from the atmosphere and make it available to the plant.

Plant Vitality
Microbial activity helps to aerate the soil. As a result, the roots grow deeper into the soil. (The longer our product is used, the deeper the roots grow). The roots of your crops are stimulated to grow in length and gain volume due to the healthy number of rhizobia bacteria, fungi and the use of recommended cover cultures.
In the above-ground plant structures, by opening the stomata for gas exchange and stimulating the production of enzymes (auxin, cytokinin, jasmonic acid, ethylene, salicylic acid, and others), vitality is increased. Some of these enzymes attract helpful beneficial organisms. This chemical communication strengthens the entire immune system of your plants.
When our leaf product is applied, the natural microorganisms act as a defence shield, similar to lactobacillus in the human digestive system. Our product is a prebiotic in the soil and a probiotic on the surface. The result of this biotic system is a phenomenon known as the exclusion principle of competition.
The most effective fungi and bacteria are those that occur naturally in the soil, grow quickly, and need the same things that a plant secretes. Under such ideal conditions, the beneficial microorganisms act like a shield, so that new microscopic invaders such as mildew, fusarium, growths, star soot dew and citrus greening (HLB) cannot penetrate the plants.
Yield Quality
As an essential part of a comprehensive plant nutrition program, our product provides fruit and vegetable growers with a higher Brix-to-acid ratio and results in sweeter and better-tasting fruits.
There is a lower likelihood of storage-related diseases such as Fusarium. Your fruits and vegetables will become more durable and resistant for shipping to your markets.
