Vitalize

In both 2019 and 2020, in potato tests at the Practical Center for Precision Agriculture in Reusel, we achieved an amazing yield by revitalizing slurry. The 2020 trial was carried out on a irrigated plot with very low EC, with the known hot temperatures. The effect of the vitalized slurry was up to + 30% more net yield, with a clear difference in size sorting in particular.

The effects of vitalization on water are already known. In vital water the minerals are more easily absorbed (calcite becomes aragonite, a structure that passes through the cell wall more easily). Perhaps this effect also plays a role in slurry, for soil life and the plant.

Pumping slurry through a shell lime vitaliser not only gives a considerable additional yield, but also higher mineral and trace element absorption in the grass. This is apparent from the leaf juice analyses, but is also reflected in the roughage analyzes from separate bales.

The test below was carried out by an independent consultant on their own land.

These and many other tests show that water vitalized with shell lime ensures that minerals and trace elements pass through the cell wall more easily. The vital water acts as asuper-lubricated conveyor belt to provide the cells with nutrition and to easily remove waste products.

It is therefore an excellent idea to always vitalize drinking water for humans and animals. The same applies to the water from the field sprayer, increased absorption can save product.
