How We Help Crop and Pasture Growers Naturally

Many of C-Wise's employees have their roots in broadacre farming, and it is close to their hearts. We understand, and have experienced the challenges faced and are well placed to provide assistance. C-Wise can help you with methods and products suitable for cropping of cereals and legumes, and establishment and maintenance of healthy and productive annual or perennial pastures. We are continually working to provide innovative solutions and can help to give you a more peaceful, easy life by arranging everything from soil tests to spreading.

C-Wise products in combination with good management techniques can help to reduce losses due to water repellence. Maintaining as much soil cover as possible, in conjunction with compost, can help the soil microbes that break down the plant waxes that cause water repellence to raise to the surface of the soil and become active. Compost can also stimulate germination and help increase early root growth so that seedlings can reach moist areas of the soil where water is penetrating the surface before they die from water stress. We can help you to work with the principles of carbon farming and biological farming to build your soils to support your business to be smarter, naturally.

Humicarb
High maturity, premium soil health product designed to provide the maximum improvement in soil function. (Click to expand).

 

Humicarb is our high maturity, premium soil health product designed to provide the maximum improvement in soil function. Spread Humicarb onto the soil surface at rates between 1 and 10m³. We generally recommend that our products are not incorporated in broadacre agriculture. The benefits from low tillage farming systems are greater than the small extra benefit achieved by incorporating compost below the soil surface. You may wish to time a compost application to take advantage of a periodic tillage, for example mouldboarding to bury weed seeds and bring clay to the surface.
