The product contains the basic building blocks for healthy growth for all types of turf.Biostimulant product uptake is both through the roots and leaves of the plants.

BAP is a dark coloured fertiliser product with a sweet natural scent.

AFBI Trial Results:
In extensive scientific greenhouse trials carried out at AFBI, the Agri-Food & Biosciences Institute in Belfast we have been able to show, how we can use the material to effectively to prevent stress on turfgrass plants.From the trial work at AFBI we know that it is possible to minimize the effect of abiotic stress by up to 60% compared to untreated plants.

Seaweed:
Contains carbohydrates, amino acids, plant hormones, micronutrients and proteins.

• Significantly increases grass growth
• Improves root growth
• Improves grass colour
• Improves stress tolerance levels
• Improves NUE (Nutrient Use Efficiency)

Microorganism package:

Bacillus subtilis:
Produces auxins (plant hormones), makes phosphorus easily available and secretes root protecting sugars.

Bacillus licheniformis:
Decomposes thatch, improves tolerance to plant stress, has disease inhibiting properties.

Bacillus amyloliquefaciens:
Increases resistance to diseases, protects against salt stress and improves drought tolerance.

Bacillus pumilus:
Helps the plants to prevent the developments of Rhizoctonia and Fusarium spores. Can solubilize potassium and phosphate. Chelates iron.

All four bacterial strains have the Qualified Presumption of Safety (QPS) status of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). Non-GMO material. Class 1 approved bacterial types.

Carbohydrates:
Carbohydrates serve as an energy source for the soil microorganisms and increase microbial activity.

Carbon:
About 50% of a plant is made up of carbon, mostly synthesised from CO2 during photosynthesis. Carbon is the basis for all building blocks of life and essential for healthy soils.

• Increases the cation exchange capacity (CEC)
• Optimizes soil pH and salinity
• Improves water holding capacity
• Prevents nutrient leaching
• Improves soil structure for better air and water movement
• Higher microbial activity and soil biodiversity
• Makes nutrients more available
• Improved rooting for healthier, stronger plants
• Accelerates seed germination

Amino acids:
Bacteria Activo Plus (BAP) has a content of 4.6% amino acids (of 16 different) which helps prevent plant stress and drought stress:Alanine (0.32%), Arginine (0.31%), Asparagic acid (0.29%), Cysteine (0.41%), Glutamine (0.41%), Glycine (0.27%), Histidine (0.19%), Isoleucine (0.35%), Leucine (0.21%), Methionine (0.40%), Phenylalanine (0.33%), Prolin (0.14%), Serine (0.22%), Tryptophan (0.12%), Tyrosine (0.30%), Valin (0.32%)

Amino acids are the building blocks for plant proteins. The plant will combine amino acids to form peptide chains and later complex proteins. All the processes in the plant like tissue development, growth, recovery from injury and self-defence require proteins.The turf plant can synthesise all the needed amino acids from the mineral nutrients it takes in. But the plant can absorb amino acids through the roots as well, saving the energy to produce them itself, especially in times of plant stress.Over time, microorganisms in the rootzone will break down amino acids into their components, making nutrients readily plant available.
