If you have any questions, please feel free to email or contact at Contact@sumaGreen and if you plan on attending please let us know quickly as there will be limited seating for the following dates above.

SumaGreen gets written up about Brix levels increasing in forage

SumaGreen President Steve Elwell was written up in Prairie Star Magazine along with Dr. Allen Williams on how testing at the LHOP ranch in Kansas showed increases in Brix levels.

What this means to the farmer is that not only are the cattle, cows, etc eating healthier grasses but it also means the storage life of the Hay goes up.  Higher Brix levels means that the shelf life of the hay will go up to a week or even a month longer then Hay with lower Brix levels.

What other testing has shown with SumaGreen Forage with Sumagrow inside is that the nutrients in the Hay actually have gone UP in the second and third cuttings.  The future is endless for the SumaGreen products and how SumaGreen can profitably help farmers grown better crops while reducing their production costs.  The increase in yields of 10-20% are usually all that matters but in this case knowing the Hay can last longer with higher Brix levels is giving those farmers extra days to sell their hay. 

What does this mean to the cattle eating the Sumagreen Forage?  Well it is like a person going to a buffet table instead of just being able to eat hamburgers everyday.  You are going to eat more and more often which for the farmer means the Daily average gain on the cattle will go up.  We have reports of cattle gaining between .2 - .5 pounds more a day compared to forage not grown with SumaGreen.  What is that worth to a cattle rancher?

Results have come in from all over the world all showing the increase in yields, Increase in Brix, and higher nutrients in the soil.

Overseeding your Lawn .....A MUST and Why Organic Lawn care is needed

We can all contribute to a better ecosystem, and incorporating organic lawn care in our lawn maintenance plan, is a great place to start. Each year, billions of dollars are spent on chemicals and pesticides for lawn care to keep the more than 30 million acres of turf in the United States healthy. Because pesticides can be harmful on an already fragile ecosystem it's important to avail ourselves of other eco-friendly methods of lawn care.

 

Organic lawn care is easier and less expensive than you might think. Furthermore, a lawn maintained with organic methods is much healthier in the long run, for instance:

• They withstand drought more easily
• They are less susceptible to pest and disease problems
• They can be enjoyed, by people and pets without worry about getting sick 

LAWN OVERSEEDING can help you take your lawn (Golf Course, client's lawns) from so so to sensational.  Most people think just by throwing some seed on your old turf will get you the great lawn you are going for.  Not true!  Follow these tips to make sure you do overseeding right.

Tip #1 - Time it Right

Time of year is VERY important for seeding of grasses (Bermuda, Fescue, Alfalfa (for farmers), St. Augustine, Kentucky Blue grass, etc).  If you're overseeding with a cool season grass, do it in the Fall, the peak growing time for cool season grasses. For warm season grasses, think Spring.

Tip #2 - Prep your Soil

Give the soil the nourishment it needs to last and help grass to grow.  Remove thatch, and consider aerating your lawn. Loosen the soil with a strong raking as well. This is also a great time to test your soil and amend your soil, whether it's upping its phosphorous levels or adjusting its pH.  SumaGreen products (SumaGreen Turf) will benefit these needs and give your soil and grass everything it will need to properly grow better.  Some starter fertilizer may help but at very low dose if using the SumaGreen Turf.

Tip #3 - Mow Your Lawn Short

Scalp your lawn!  Yes, the same conditions that give weeds an easy entrance also makes it easy for you newly overseeded lawn to take hold. You want your new lawn seeds to have as much contact with the soil as possible, so scalp away. 

Tip #4 - Sow Seed Heavily

For lawn overseeding to succeed, you need a lot of seeds. You should plan to double the seeding you would do if you were putting the seeds down on straight soil with no existing turf.   Since you are trying to grow the grass you want to give yourself the best chances to succeed the FIRST time.

Tip #5 - Baby Your Lawn

Even though you have existing turf, your new sprouts are just as delicate as a completely new lawn, so treat your yard accordingly. Put a protective light top soil, spray SumaGreen Turf  with SumaGrow inside at 4 oz per 1000 sq/ft for quicker germination of seed, water, water, water, and stay off the grass for a few weeks.  To properly measure the water you can put a small cup in your yard to measure (Approximately) how much water you are putting down.  Only put an inch of water on grass.  Of course water in early morning and late evening so moisture stays in grass during hot days.  Also OVER  watering is bad so try to use best judgement and avoid puddling on grass.

Tip#6 - Sit back and Enjoy your NEW Plush grass.

 

 

Honduras Coffee not only getting yield increase but also helped fight Roya disease

In Honduras we had exceptional results on ROYA (disease in Coffee) and as you can see from the picture we saved this man's coffee farm. Everyone around him that did not use the SumaGreen Ag had their farm destroyed by the Roya and will take about 18 months to recover from the damages that the Roya has caused.
Regrowth on Roya infected plants with our product has also been seen. Think about the revolution that SumaGreen can help when farmers have NO OTHER ALTERNATIVE against Roya. If you know a coffee bean farmer you need to have them contact us immediately and help saved their farm. 

 One application of SumaGreen                           Two applications of SumaGreen

        ZERO Applcations of SumaGreen                      Roya Disease (No SumaGreen Application)

Think about this, not only would they save their farm but they got an increase in yield but they HAD A CROP TO HARVEST!!!   What is the value of that?   Not only are we cheaper (Very stable price) but the benefits just keep going on and on with our SumaGreen Ag when applied to anything with a root system.  See what results your farm will get on Corn, Coffee, Cotton, Soy Beans, Hay, Tomatoes, etc. with our SumaGreen Ag with SumaGrow inside compared to fertilizer.
