The approach of Heliae Agriculture products is different. The innovative microalgae-derived technology found in PhycoTerra^® dramatically increases the growth of native soil microbes – making it a perfect fit for regenerative agriculture. The explosion of soil microbe growth generates positive results for crops and the soil, so farmers can get paid benefits as they improve soil health.

Bioactive compounds produced by the microbes promote plant growth. The growth process efficiently sequesters carbon within the soil itself and in the increased biomass produced by the crop. As they grow, soil microbes colonize soil aggregates and improve soil structure. Soil aggregation allows more water to penetrate the soil surface and to be held for use by growing crops. Improved nutrient and water availability have been shown to improve crop yields and quality.
