BEST TM Cereal Grains (CG) is an all-natural liquid biostimulant developed to achieve complete soil balance by addressing the chemical, biological, and physical aspects of soil health. Formulated with advanced cold burst extraction technology, it contains over 50 plant extracts, Arcadian seaweed, molasses, and fish meal, which work together to activate dormant soil microbiology.

Specifically designed for cereal crops, TM CG enhances microbial interactions, nutrient cycling, and actively improves soil structure. It softens the soil, increases water retention, improves porosity, and promotes better aeration, leading to optimal moisture absorption and drainage. This process restores soil health, making it more nutrient-rich and productive for cereal crop growth. TM CG is tank-mixable, allowing easy integration into existing cereal farming practices.

All-Natural

How Does TM CG Work?

1. Cold Burst Extraction Technology: TM CG is formulated using cold burst extraction, collecting bioactive exudates from over 50 plant species during various growth stages. This process preserves essential compounds crucial for improving soil health and supporting rice cultivation, particularly in nutrient-poor or stressed soils.

2. Super-Concentration Process: The exudates are fermented over a month to produce a super-concentrated solution, increasing the bioavailability and potency of active compounds. This concentration ensures that rice plants receive a highly stable, nutrient-rich input, promoting efficient nutrient uptake even in challenging soil conditions.

3. Microbial Activation: When applied to paddy soils, TM CG reactivates dormant microbial communities by delivering carbon and plant-signaling molecules. These interactions stimulate communication between rice roots and beneficial soil microbes, enhancing microbial diversity and promoting a balanced soil microbiome.

4. Sequencing of Microbial Colonization: TM CG initiates a sequence of microbial colonization that is vital for restoring paddy field ecosystems. The plant exudates signal specific microbes to support critical functions such as nitrogen fixation, organic matter decomposition, and nutrient cycling, essential for rice crop health and yield.

5. Enhanced Nutrient Cycling for Rice: TM CG enhances the breakdown of organic matter and minerals in flooded rice fields, enabling the release of nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. This process improves nutrient availability for rice plants, reducing the need for synthetic fertilizers and enhancing the sustainability of rice cultivation.

6. Nitrogen Fixation and Reduced Nutrient Leaching: TM CG fosters the growth of nitrogen-fixing bacteria in the paddy’s rhizosphere, enabling rice plants to access nitrogen naturally. It also stabilizes soil pH and reduces nutrient leaching, maintaining soil fertility over multiple planting cycles and improving yield consistency in rice farming.

7. Improvement of Paddy Soil Structure: The microbial activity triggered by TM CG promotes the aggregation of soil particles, leading to improved soil structure in paddy fields. This enhances water infiltration and retention, making rice fields more resistant to compaction, ensuring optimal moisture levels for rice growth, and increasing drought resilience.

8. Accelerated Decomposition of Organic Matter: In flooded conditions, TM CG speeds up the decomposition of organic residues, releasing stored nutrients back into the soil. This continuous organic matter turnover supports long-term soil fertility and boosts the humus content, both crucial for sustained rice productivity.

9. Enhanced Root-Soil Interactions in Rice Fields: The plant-derived exudates from TM CG create a favorable environment for root-microbe interactions in paddy soils, encouraging deeper root development and better nutrient uptake. This improves rice root system health, resulting in stronger plants and higher yields.

10. Compatibility with Rice Farm Programs: TM CG is a liquid formulation that mixes easily with common rice cultivation inputs such as herbicides, pesticides, fungicides, and fertilizers. This compatibility allows farmers to integrate TM CG seamlessly into existing crop management systems without the need for additional application methods or equipment.

11. Carbon Cycling and Soil Restoration in Rice Fields: By promoting efficient carbon exchange between rice plants and soil microbes, TM CG supports a healthy carbon cycle. This microbial activity helps convert plant-fixed carbon into forms that sustain microbial life while also providing essential nutrients to rice plants, enhancing soil regeneration and long-term rice field health.

BENEFITS in a farming system

For Soil

Activates beneficial microbes and boosts microbial diversity, creating a thriving soil ecosystem. This balanced environment ensures optimal chemical, biological, and physical soil conditions, reducing the need for synthetic fertilizers.

Increases organic matter and organic carbon, which improve soil structure, nutrient storage, and water-holding capacity. This creates a fertile environment, enhances nutrient cycling, and supports long-term soil productivity and resilience.

Enhances root growth by improving soil aeration, allowing roots to penetrate more deeply and access nutrients and water.

Encourages microbial activity that breaks down organic matter, preventing soil compaction and making the soil more friable.

Strengthens soil structure, making it more resistant to erosion and maintaining long-term soil stability.

Promotes microbial activity that helps maintain an optimal pH level, creating the right environment for plant growth.

Improves water-holding capacity, reducing irrigation requirements and helping plants endure periods of drought.

Enhances soil porosity, preventing water from pooling around roots and ensuring healthy root systems.

Converts locked-up nutrients in the soil into plant-available forms, ensuring that plants get the nutrients they need.

Improves soil electrical conductivity (EC) and cation exchange capacity (CEC), facilitating better nutrient uptake by plants.

For Crops

Promotes robust root development, enhancing nutrient and water absorption.

Improves root nodulation, leading to better nitrogen fixation and higher soil fertility.

Increases grain and fruit quality by reducing screenings and boosting protein content, resulting in higher market value.

Raises sugar content in plants, reducing susceptibility to pests and diseases while improving taste.

Increases the overall nutritional profile of crops, making produce richer in essential nutrients.

Speeds up the decomposition of plant residues, recycling nutrients back into the soil faster.

Stimulates branching and biomass production, leading to greater crop yields.

Promotes extended flowering periods, boosting yield potential.

Improves plants’ ability to withstand environmental stressors like drought, salinity, and diseases.

Enhances the plant’s ability to utilize available water, reducing water stress and supporting growth even in challenging conditions.

Application Guide

The BEST TM Cereal Grains Set includes a two-bottle system of TM-CG and AI-CG, designed for all soil types and varieties, including salt-tolerant rice.

1st Application: Apply 250–375 ml/ha each of TM-CG and AI-CG to the soil 0 to 6 weeks before planting, after soil leveling, ensuring the soil has adequate moisture.

2nd Application: Apply 250–375 ml/ha each of TM-CG and AI-CG to both the soil and foliage 20–25 days after planting.

Note: Compatible with most chemical fertilizers, snailicides, pesticides, fungicides, and biocides.

Recommendation: Begin with 375 ml/ha for the first application, then reduce the dose once yield stabilization is observed.
