CoastBio’s Contribution to Reducing Agricultural Runoff
Protecting Waterways with Sustainable Solutions
Agricultural runoff is a major environmental concern, contributing to water pollution, soil degradation, and ecosystem disruption. CoastBio’s biological soil amendments and beneficial microbial solutions offer a sustainable approach to mitigating runoff, improving soil health, and protecting nearby waterways.
Understanding Agricultural Runoff
When fertilizers, pesticides, and other chemicals wash off farmland into rivers and lakes, they cause harmful effects such as:
- Algae blooms that deplete oxygen and harm aquatic life.
- Contaminated drinking water due to excess nitrogen and phosphorus.
- Soil erosion that reduces farmland productivity.
How CoastBio’s Products Help Reduce Runoff
CoastBio specializes in biologically based solutions that enhance soil structure and water retention, minimizing runoff risks. Key products include:
- BioMend Inoculant – A natural microbial blend that promotes root growth, reducing soil erosion and increasing nutrient absorption.
- Bacillus and Trichoderma-Based Soil Enhancers – Strengthen plant defenses while improving soil structure to retain moisture.
- Mycorrhizal Fungi Applications – Enhance soil biodiversity, helping plants utilize nutrients efficiently with minimal synthetic fertilizers.
By adopting CoastBio’s regenerative agriculture solutions, farmers can maintain high yields while reducing environmental harm.
