Comprehensive

Our Comprehensive Program is designed for medium to large farms and orchards, offering tailored soil solutions and regenerative practices. We help reduce chemical reliance, boost productivity, and improve resilience, all while fostering healthier soil for sustainable growth. In addition, we complete water tests and monitor farm environment KPIs.

Doing what others can’t, won’t, and don’t so you can get on with it!

The Comprehensive programme is built for farms that require in-depth soil management and ongoing support. We work closely with you to assess your soil’s needs and create a custom fertiliser plan. Our goal is to enhance soil productivity and sustainability, offering continuous advice to ensure your farm thrives through every season. In addition, we complete water tests and monitor farm environment KPIs.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you know what my soil actually needs?2026-07-15T15:54:55+12:00

We use soil and herbage testing through Brookside Laboratories – Ohio, US, which provides the level of detail required to make accurate decisions.

These tests measure Totals and Availables, along with key indicators such as mineral balance, trace elements, biological activity, aluminium levels, and plant nitrogen efficiency.

From this, we build a customised blend for your farm – no guesswork, no generic recipes, just accuracy.

Will production fall if I stop using NPKS fertilisers?2026-07-15T15:54:55+12:00

No.

The focus is on identifying and correcting the limiting factors that allow nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and sulphur to cycle naturally in the soil. When those systems are functioning properly, production is maintained and often improves.

We regularly see large reserves of phosphorus in the Totals analysis, while the Availables appear low – which is why more is often applied. The role of the Ecofarm system is to unlock what is already there, rather than continually adding more.

The same principle applies to nitrogen, potassium and sulphur.

Will switching to Ecofarm increase my costs?2026-07-15T15:53:24+12:00

No – in most cases, the opposite happens.

As soil function improves, fertiliser inputs are reduced and a range of other costs begin to drop.

Farmers typically see:

  • Reduced reliance on chemical inputs, sprays and supplements
  • Lower diesel and machinery use
  • Reduced animal health issues and vet costs – with some farmers reporting significant drops in down cows (for example, from 50 to 6)
  • More consistent pasture growth and better resilience in wet and dry conditions
  • Less time spent on the tractor

Most find the system pays for itself and continues to reduce costs over time.

Is Ecofarm a regenerative system?2026-07-15T15:53:24+12:00

Yes – in practice, not just ideology. And not only regenerative, but progressive.

We focus on:

  • Soil function
  • Mineral balance
  • Biological activity
  • Reduced dependence on external inputs

Everything we do is designed to move the system forward in a regenerative direction.

Soil is a complete system. If you leave parts out, it cannot function properly. Our approach considers the full soil – plant – animal – consumption chain and makes it practical to apply on farm.

Do I have to stop using all chemicals immediately?2026-07-15T15:53:24+12:00

Often that is a good idea, however it is best discussed with us.

In some cases, an abrupt change can cause setbacks, so we take a practical approach – reducing dependency in a managed way as soil function improves.

What about carbon and organic matter?2026-07-15T15:53:24+12:00

Organic matter is roughly 50% carbon, so when you test for organic carbon, organic matter will typically reflect at around double that level.

Carbon builds naturally when soil function improves – as structure develops, roots penetrate deeper, and microbial activity increases.

We focus on function first, carbon follows.

Is this backed by science or experience?2026-07-15T15:54:55+12:00

Both.

Our approach draws on independent soil science, international research, decades of practical farm experience, and ongoing testing on our own farm.

We trust what works in paddocks, not just papers. Having skin in the game ensures everything we recommend has been proven in real farming conditions.

Is this suitable for long-term farm succession?2026-07-15T15:53:24+12:00

Yes.

Regenerative systems are about resilience, lower stress, and leaving the farm better than you found it – economically, biologically, and practically.

Strong soils, lower input pressure, and a more enjoyable farming system all help make succession more attractive for the next generation.

Our aim is to help bring farming back to a healthy, rewarding lifestyle that people want to step into.
