Low germination rates lead to reduced plant stand establishment, increased weed propensity, poor nutrient utilization, and increased vulnerability to environmental stress.

Persist Premium Biochar

One pound of ultra-porous Persist biochar has a surface area of over 25 football fields. Water adheres to these surfaces to retain moisture in soil up to six times longer. The microscopic pores also serve as a habitat for microbes, creating a microbe mega-factory in your soil.

Persist PAF Bio-liquid

Persist PAF is a unique liquid blend of organic acids, phenols, and natural compounds. While biochar provides shelter for microbes, PAF provides the food. Recent crop trials, including strawberry, pepper, and soybean, show significant improvements in nutrient uptake and yield.

Micronized biochar for fertigation, drip irrigation, and foliar spray systems.

  • Carefully screened particles less than 75 microns (0.075 mm) designed for liquid suspension and application.
  • Enhances dispersibility of biochar in soil for more precise nutrient delivery while reducing loss from volatilization.
  • Micronized particles further improve water retention, nutrient availability, and microbial activity in soils.
