A Natural Key to Doubling the UK’s Fruit and Veg Production

In the wake of the recent report from the House of Lords Horticultural Sector Committee, which cast a rather stark light on the future of horticulture, the UK Soil Association has issued a bold call to action. The organisation has urged the government to double the UK’s fruit and vegetable production through nature-friendly farming.

And this is where SoilPoint’s Soil Booster comes into play – offering a much-needed beacon of hope!

SoilPoint’s Soil Booster, approved by both OMRI and the UK Soil Association for both organic and conventional farming use, is a 100% natural solution that promises not only to enrich our soils but also to contribute to the healing of the Earth. Its innovative formula comprises a concentrated source of minerals, micro-nutrients, antioxidants, and trace elements, all essential for the healthiest soils and thriving plants.

The Soil Association’s vision for a sustainable increase in horticultural output aligns seamlessly with the benefits offered by SoilPoint’s Soil Booster. By reducing the need for chemical and synthetic inputs, this humic-based soil conditioner is suitable for climate-smart agriculture, addressing the Soil Association’s call for more sustainable farming practices. What’s more, it supports the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, optimises nutrient use efficiency, and improves overall plant nutrition.

SoilPoint’s Soil Booster not only optimises soil conditions for a greater root mass and better nutrient conversion but also increases biodiversity and resilience to climate instability. This aligns with the Soil Association’s recommendations for a cross-departmental horticulture strategy that supports a transition to more sustainable farming practices.

And it gets even better, as the adoption of SoilPoint’s Soil Booster is a step towards generating income through improving the environment. It helps sequester carbon in the soil and above-ground biomass, reversing the trend of atmospheric accumulation of greenhouse gases. This is particularly relevant as the Soil Association emphasises the need for interventions in supply chains to incentivize farmers who look after the environment.

Ultimately, SoilPoint’s Soil Booster is not just a product; it’s a pivotal part of the solution to the challenges laid out by the Soil Association, providing a natural, innovative approach to nurturing our lands, supporting British growers, and ensuring a sustainable future for UK agriculture. As we look to double our fruit and vegetable production, SoilPoint’s Soil Booster stands ready as a key ally in this green revolution.
