MICROGEO®

MICROGEO®

Microgeo® is a product that allows the agriculturist and cattle ranchers to set up and keep their own biological fertilizer production.It is a component used in the fermentation and the Continuous Liquid Composting (CLC®) with the following functions:

ŸTo feed with nutrients and substrata the biological ruminal activity;ŸTo regulate the biological fertilizer production keeping the continuous fermentation;ŸTo avoid acid or lacteal alcoholic fermentation;ŸTo keep the biological fertilizer always ready for use, onlyreplacing Microgeo® according to this manualrecommendation. Technical Characteristics below:

The biological fertilizer produced by the CLC® process, present the following technical and agronomic characteristics:

Organic fertilizer produced in Bioplant CLC®

Biological composition: Presents a great microorganism diversity as; bacteria, fungi, leavens and actinomycetes. When applied to the soil, it works to increase the biological biomass, revitalize and restructure. In foliar spray it has multiple action over the plant nutrition and health.

Biological Concentration: Presents in its average composition 89% of bacteria and 11% of fungi, leaves and actinomycetes, namely:3.5 X 106 to 1 X 108 CFU of bacteria / ml, 100 million CFU / ml0.5 X 107 to 1.25 x 107 CFU fungi / ml,up to 12.5 million CFU / mlSource: Dept. of Entomology Laboratory ESALQ/USP- CFU = Colony Forming Unit

Nutrients: Microgeo®, macro and micronutrients designed to nourish and multiply the microorganisms in the Continuous Liquid Composting (CLC®), and when applied to the soil, also favor the biological flora like micorrizas, rizobium, tricoderma and specific inoculation. In a foliar spray they contribute to the culture nutrition.

Secondary metabolites: With Microgeo® re-feeding the continuous fermentation CLC®, there is a guarantee that the constant production of secondary metabolites and nutrients will have multiple actions in the nutrition, bloom , health and culture production.

PH: At the beginning of CLC® the environment is acidic, around PH 4. From 15 days on the acidity diminishes and stabilizes from 30 days on with PH 6 to 7.

Odor: At the beginning of CLC® the characteristic odor of bovine manure or ruminal contents is present but from 30 days on it diminishes with Microgeo® replacement.

ApprovedInput

CLC® Bioplant Installation

PRODUCTION

CLC® Bioplant Start

Components doses to start the fermentation and the biological fertilizer production. To add and next to stir the Bioplant:

The biological fertilizer can be used after 15 days of the initial mixture. Stir twice a week the floating organic layer or the one at the tank bottom and every time Microgeo® is replaced in the Bioplant.

Use: Do not stir the tank at the moment of use, strain or pre-filter before using..

Daily Continuous Use: It is allowed daily maximum consumption of 10% of the production tank volume. Replace Microgeo® and water every day.

Weekly or Monthly Intermittent Use: Consume up to 70% from the production tank volume. After Microgeo® and water replacement, wait seven days to use the biological fertilizer.

Observation:

ŸUse ruminal contents or confined, dairy or grazing cattle manure with approximately 20 days after the animal production. Bovine manure too 'green' or 'fresh' should not be used because it contains up to 70% of humidity what saturates the environment and makes

difficult the pre-filtration of the biological fertilizer at the beginning of is usage.

ŸIn areas subject to frequent frosts, is preferable to use ruminal content

Ÿ.If is not possible to get bovine manure, use from other ruminal animals.

ŸDo not use manure from birds and swines.

ŸIn the production it is common the presence of fly larva known as “Hang Glider” and bees are attracted to it. There is no risk of dengue larva due to the fermentation.

ŸDo not use chlorinated water. In areas where the water is chlorinated, it must be stored in on open tank under the sun and be utilized after there days.

ŸRain: Cover the up to 5,000 liters tanks, keeping an air entrance, and uncover after the rain, or use plastic covering. In bigger tanks remove the excess avoiding losses.

ŸEvaporation: Lowering the level, replace only water, not the other components.

ŸTo store or transport the biological fertilizer in drums, after arriving keep them open and use of most in four days.

ŸKeep always the level in the Bioplant, even when the biological fertilizer is not being used. During harvest interval, when the biological fertilizer is not produced and used, keep the bioplant always full, replacing the water level and Microgeo (2,5%) after the biological fertilizer last withdrawal from the tank.

Example: When up to 700 liters of biological fertilizer are removed from a 1,000 liters tank, replace 17.5 kg of Microgeo®, and water level.

Microgeo® necessity for the CLC® maintenance:

Organic layer maintenance in the Bioplant: The organic layer in the Bioplant represents 20% of its volume, composed of 5% of Microgeo®, more 15% of bovine manure or ruminal contents. The replacement of bovine floyer manure or ruminal content is only necessary if the tank layer diminishes from the proportion of 20% of the tank volume.

The level of 20% is measured with the help of a agitating squeegee which touches the organic layer deposited at the tank bottom.

Normally the organic biomass reduction takes place when a humid manure with low content of fiber is used. When the reduction is noticed, replace a small quantitu of manure, keeping the initial layer of 20% in the tank bottom.

Due to the CLC® Process which guarantees the fermentation in a continues way, the biological fertilizer has an indefinite expiration date, within the Bioplant and it is always ready to be use.

When the Bioplant CLC® is not operation it is common the presence of algae but they disappear with the biological fertilizer production restart.

CLC® Bioplant Production, Replacement and Maintenance.

In order to maintain the biological fertilizer production, refeed the Bioplant with Microgeo® in the following proportion:

Maintenance of the 'CONTINUOS USAGE': After using up to 10% of the Bioplant, replace 2.5% of Microgeo® and replace the water level again.

Example: Removed 100 liters of biological fertilizer from a 1,000 liters tank, replace 2,5 kg of Microgeo® and the water level.

Maintenance of the “Weekly or Monthly Intermittent Usage” System: After using up to 70% volume of the Bioplant, replace 2.5% of Microgeo® and the water level.

With regard to the layer formed by Microgeo®, because of its organic substances resistent to decomposition (recalcitration), in the long run, a minor accumulation and a level raise of organic layer at the Bioplant bottom will take place. Remove the excess in case of it be over 20% of the volume.

IMPORTANT: THE BIOLOGICAL FERTILIZER STORED IN THE BIOPLANT HAS AN INDETERMINATE EXPIRATION DATE.

Recommendation:

The biological fertilization can be performed within the habitual spraying conditions of the other inputs, without any temperature, luminosity and humidity restrictions. Can be also applied with rain, dew and at night.

The biological fertilizer application of 150 L / ha must be made at the initial phase of the culture development to optimize the biological biomass growing on soil, fed by the culture radicular exudation.

Flooded rice: see ferti-irrigation.

Foliar biological fertilization at 3% can be made together with: fungicides, insecticides, acaridicides, fertilizers, foliar hormones, biological defensives and acidifying.

Do not apply biological fertilizer with bactericides.

FERTI-IRRIGATION:

The biological fertilization can be applied on cultures that are ferti-irrigated through irrigation systems as dripping, flooding, microsprinkling or central pivot. The biological fertilization is performed together in the same frequency and ferti-irrigation period of the used chemical fertilizers. Install the CLC ® Bioplant, next to the tank of dilution and injection of fertilizers in the ferti-irrigation system. See table above.

Observation:- Irrigated area by irrigation turn. On central pivot is equal to total area. On dripping and microsppinkling is equals to subparcel area ferti-irrigated by irrigation turn.- Number of irrigation turns: total number of ferti-irrigations made during the culture cycle.- The minimum interval for the irrigation turn, fert-irrigated with biological fertilizer, must be of one week.- The pre-filter placed inside the CLC® Bioplant fermentation tank together with the filters of the irrigation systems through dripping or microsprinkling are sufficient to avoid obstruction in the ferti-irrigation lines.- Foliar biological fertilization: apply the doses and the frequency suggested for the culture .- Flooded rice: dose 300l/ha, 150l/ha on pre-plantation and 150l/ha with the irrigation .

HYDROPONICS:

On hydroponics production system the biological fertilization is used according to the recommendation:

At the beginning add the biological fertilizer at the concentration from 1% to 2% of the nourishing solution total volume.

On maintenance, everytime nutrients are added and nourishing solution level is replaced add the biological fertilizer at the concentration from 1% to 2% of the nourishing soluction total volume.

Gradually reduce the chemical fertilizer doses to get a larger efficency as well as better culture result.

Foliar biological fertilization follows the doses and frequency suggested for the culture.
