Summary of Biostimulant Trials

The NC State Soil Microbiome Extension team conducts field and greenhouse trials evaluating the performance and efficacy of microbial products (e.g., microbial seed treatments, microbial inoculants, biofertilizers) and other biostimulants (e.g., soil amendments). We test commercially available and research-formulation products in real world scenarios and conditions relevant to farmers and producers. The goal of this program is to provide robust, transparent, and unbiased research spanning North Carolina production environments.

Here you will find a table summarizing all of the trials we have conducted, and below you will find links to the detailed report for each trial. We hope this information will help you make informed decisions about your agricultural production systems!
