12 September 2024, Canada: MustGrow Biologics Corp. (TSXV:MGRO) (OTC:MGROF) (FRA:0C0) (the “Company” or “MustGrow”) is pleased to announce receipt of the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services registration approval for its mustard plant-based TerraSanteTM, an organic biofertility product. The Florida organic certification is included under MustGrow’s existing Organic OMRI Listed® certifications in Arizona, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington State.

MustGrow’s Florida registration and organic certification is a key pillar in the commercialization strategy with BioAg Product Strategies. In addition to Florida, and recently-awarded Arizona, Idaho, California, Oregon, and Washington State, MustGrow expects to continue its efforts towards further state-level registrations in other pertinent U.S. states.

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.
