MustGrow Receives Arizona Registration for TerraSanteᵀᴹ Biofertility Product
28 August 2024, Canada: MustGrow Biologics Corp. (TSXV:MGRO) (OTC:MGROF) (FRA:0C0) (the “Company” or “MustGrow”) is pleased to announce receipt of the Arizona Department of Agriculture registration approval for its mustard plant-based TerraSanteTM, an organic biofertility product. The Arizona organic certification is included under MustGrow’s existing Organic OMRI Listed® certifications in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington State.
MustGrow’s Arizona registration and organic certification is a key pillar in the commercialization strategy with BioAg Product Strategies. Notably, several large California agriculture companies utilize Arizona’s winter climate for winter farming production. In addition to Arizona, and recently-awarded Idaho, California, Oregon and Washington State, MustGrow expects to continue its efforts towards further state-level registrations in other pertinent U.S. states.
With over 25 million acres of farmland, Arizona farms produced US$3.0 billion in agricultural crop products in 2022.1 The Vegetable/Melon/Potatoes category led with US$1.43 billion in sales.2 Arizona is ranked 2nd in the U.S. production for head lettuce, leaf lettuce, romaine lettuce, cauliflower, broccoli, spinach, and cantaloupe. Yuma County is considered the winter lettuce capital of the world, also highly regarded for its leafy greens, broccoli, and cauliflower.3
TerraSanteTM for Soil and Ecological Health
MustGrow’s soil amendment and biofertility development programs focus on soil and soil microbiome health, nutrient and water use efficiencies, and plant yields. Soil is a farmer’s most valuable asset, and MustGrow’s mustard plant-based technologies are being developed with the intention to improve not only the health of the soil, but also the surrounding ecological environment.
As an organic biofertilizer in soluble mixable form, TerraSanteTM contains nutritious plant proteins and carbohydrates that feed the soil and soil microbes, potentially improving beneficial microbial activity and ensuring long-term sustainable soil health. These targeted micro-communities have been shown to work to improve nutrient availability, which can potentially increase plant vigor and yields, while reducing plant stress. TerraSanteTM has the potential to improve crop nutrient uptake and, hence, overall crop performance. There are no artificial additives or preservatives used during its manufacturing.
