AGRISERUM^®  is bacteria and bacteria feeders designed to enhance biological activity in the soil.  Bacteria are the most abundant of the micro-organisms in the soil, but tend to be most abundant in or adjacent to plant roots.  Bacteria enhance soil quality by decomposing organic matter, feeding other members of the soil food web like earthworms, protozoa, and nematodes.  Bacteria physically bind soil particles into aggregates thus improving water infiltration and the soil's water-holding ability.  By increasing the water-holding ability of the soil this also reduces erosion.  Bacteria help keep nutrients in the root zone and out of surface and groundwater.  Bacteria compete with disease-causing organisms.  Bacteria filter and degrade pollutants as water flows through the soil.  Bacteria are very important to most anything grown in the soil.  By adding bacteria to the soil we can enhance the soil's ability to produce for us.  AGRISERUM^®  is a good way to enhance the biological activity in the soil.  Does your soil have enough bacteria life?  

AGRISERUM^® is now listed by the Organic Materials Review Institute (OMRI) for use in organic production.

PIT POWER^® is bacteria and bacteria feeders designed for manure pits and for composting.  By adding PIT POWER^®  to a manure pit it will help to reduce the solid material in the pit for easier pumping.  By adding the bacteria which is mostly aerobic bacteria it will help to reduce the odor.  The real bad odors are caused from more anaerobic types of bacteria.  PIT POWER^®  can also help in composting by breaking down the organic materials in a composting pile.

HOW TO USE PIT POWER^®

The amout of PIT POWER^® used depends on the type of manure in the pit.  An example in a hog manure pit, one gallon of PIT POWER^® would be added per 100,000 gallons of pit volume.  In a pit with cattle manure, one gallon of PIT POWER^® per 75,000 gallons of pit volume.  In a pit with dairy manure, one gallon of PIT POWER^® per 50,000 gallons of pit volume.  To view a PIT POWER^® label click on label.

About Us

Our product, AGRISERUM^®, was invented by Doctor Howard D. Salins in 1947.  The product was used and tested in Dorsey, Illinois for 18 years before the first gallon was offered for sale in 1965 by Farmers Manufacturing Company, Inc.  In July 2006 Farmers Manufacturing Company was re-organized and we now do business as Crop Resources, LLC. 

Shipping

Depending on volume, products come in 1-gallon containers, 6 to a case.  They are usually delivered by UPS; however, we can provide direct shipping for large orders.  Call us for details.
