More vigorous plants and a 5.6% production increase year over year
Request a QuoteThis trial examined the effect of an ABI microbial consortium on organic coffee grown under difficult conditions: three-year-old Castilla plants with high defoliation from radiation exposure, on loamy clay soil. The consortium was applied at an initial 2 cc per plant followed by 2 liters per hectare every four months, across 4,000 plants within a 5,400-plant lot.
The untreated plants showed heavy defoliation and uneven harvests with a high percentage of defects. For organic coffee growers, defoliation and inconsistent harvests are among the hardest problems to manage without synthetic inputs, and they directly reduce both volume and cup quality.
The treated plants showed vigorous growth with lush green foliage and dense clusters of green cherries, with visible improvement by 115 days after treatment and a 5.6% production increase over the previous year. Harvested cherries showed superior taste quality. The result points to healthier, more productive organic coffee from a single addition to the existing program.
Built from beneficial bacteria and fungi that ABI manufactures in its own U.S. fermentation facility, including multiple Bacillus and Trichoderma species alongside Brevibacillus, Aspergillus, and Penicillium, each DNA-verified for identity and purity. Explore our strains.
