EcoStim develops and evaluates complex biostimulant formulations for agricultural use. They are not fertilisers, as they work by influencing the metabolic processes and energy levels of plants and, unlike fertilisers they do not get incorporated into plant structures.
We as a company strive to work alongside agricultural growers providing them with the knowledge of how and why Biostimulants can be so effective for them. We listen to their concerns and research the issues that they are currently experiencing. Our aim is to address those areas by developing proprietary products. We then carry on initial field testing together with our clients to ensure the product is right for them. We also engage with the relevant industry bodies to be compliant with local regulation.
We believe that Biostimulants are an important addition for the future of sustainable farming. There is great pressure on agriculture to feed burgeoning populations, but environmental changes, water shortages and pathogen attacks take a heavy toll on crop quality and yields. Genetic modification may offer technical solutions to some of these problems but environmental and ethical objections remain major hurdles, as do the costs and controls levied by the large agro-chemical companies.
Biostimulant Products
A number of quite different formulation types make up our biostimulant product range and these are differentiated by what they do for the plant and how they work. Each of these different formulation types however can be produced in a number of variants, which although based on the same technology, are modified in subtle ways to address the needs of specific types of plant.
Root crops, Brassicas and Berry Fruits, for instance all respond well to many of the same biostimulants, but show individual preferences for certain ones and certain pH levels.
Variants of the Biostimulant range include include…
- A pH modified version specifically for ericaceous plants.
- A pH modified version specifically for brassicas.
- A modified biostimulant balance specifically for enhancing the flavour and shelf life of berry fruits.
- A modified version with additional components, used at a specific time of year to promote flowering and fruiting
- A modified version for hydroponic use.
Cereals
EcoStim Rice & Cereals is particularly effective on plants belonging to the grass family. This includes cereals such as grain and rice where substantial yield increases are possible by increasing the crop’s resistance to fungus and other pests as well as improving drought tolerance.
- Reduction on chemical/fertiliser usage
- Reduces crop wastage
- Higher yield, more revenue
- Earlier cropping

Berry Fruits
Farmers all over the world have the primary aim of making a profitable return on their crops. EcoStim Berry Fruits formulation can help by:
- Generating higher yields and better quality
- Increasing the fruit flavour
- Extending the fruit shelf life
- Reducing crop wastage
- Reducing/eliminating reliance on fertilisers or chemicals

Root Vegetables
EcoStim Root Vegetables stimulates the production of starch and sugars and produces a heavier crop. It protects the plants from oxidative stress enabling them to continue growing through adverse conditions.
- Reduction on chemical/fertiliser usage
- Minimises crop wastage
- Higher yield, more revenue
- Produces a better quality vegetable

Brassicas
EcoStim Brassicas is formulated to cater for the special needs of this family of plants. Like all EcoStim products it works in partnership with the types of fertiliser favoured by brassica growers and can reduce fertiliser usage.
- Higher yield, more revenue
- Reduction on chemical/fertiliser usage
- Minimises crop wastage
- Earlier cropping

Ornamental Flowers
EcoStim Ornamental Flowers formulation helps to produce stronger healthier plants and more blooms. It also helps cut flowers to last longer. This improves the overall appeal of the plant and its apparent value.
- Larger flowers and more buds
- More colourful blooms
- Increased pathogen resistance
- Better tolerance to stresses

Hydroponics & Greenhouses
EcoStim Hydroponics & Greenhouses formulation is ideally suited to the warm humid conditions typical of greenhouse production. They provide protection against fungal attack and heat stress and produce heavier cropping.
- Higher yield, more revenue
- Increased pathogen resistance
- Earlier cropping
- Better tolerance to stress

Spices
EcoStim Spices contains plant bioflavanoids which increase the taste and fragrance of spices. It increases protection against drought and pathogens significantly as well as reducing the effects of oxidative stress. In some instances it has made the difference between the plants surviving or dying in harsh dry climates.
- Increased flavour
- Increased pathogen resistance

Tea
EcoStim Tea is formulated to produce top growth of buds and shoots, diverting the energy of the tea bush to constantly replenish the picked leaves and buds. It can be applied as a foliar or soil treatment and by fertigation.
- Higher yield, more revenue
- Better tolerance to stresses
- Increased tea flavour
- Earlier cropping
