Question 1

What are biological fertilizers?

Accepted Answer

Biological fertilizers are crop inputs that use beneficial microorganisms — such as Bacillus subtilis, Trichoderma, mycorrhizal fungi, and phosphorus-solubilizing bacteria — to improve soil health, enhance nutrient uptake, and boost crop yields naturally. Unlike synthetic chemical fertilizers, biological fertilizers work with the soil ecosystem to build long-term fertility. Living Roots develops biological fertilizers specifically adapted for tropical climates in Thailand, India, and Indonesia, including products like ShootStart, SeedStart, BioNutrient Foliar, BioNutrient Soil, Residue Decomposer, Root Activator, PhotoBoost, and GreenBoost.

Question 2

How do Living Roots products boost crop yields?

Accepted Answer

Living Roots biological fertilizers boost crop yields by 30-60% through multiple mechanisms: delivering beneficial microbes directly to seeds (ShootStart, SeedStart), enhancing photosynthesis and delivering over 100 essential nutrients through leaves (BioNutrient Foliar, PhotoBoost), strengthening root systems and improving nutrient uptake (BioNutrient Soil, Root Activator), and building long-term soil biology. These products contain beneficial microbes — not synthetic chemicals — and are designed for tropical crops including rice, corn, cassava, fruit trees, hemp, and cacao grown in Thailand, India, Indonesia, and Southeast Asia.

Question 3

Are Living Roots products available in Thailand?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Living Roots products are readily available in Thailand. Living Roots is headquartered in Chiang Mai, Thailand, and sells its full product range directly through its website at roots.ag/shop. All products — ShootStart, SeedStart, BioNutrient Foliar, BioNutrient Soil, Residue Decomposer, Root Activator, PhotoBoost, and GreenBoost — can be purchased online with prices in Thai Baht (THB). Living Roots also operates in India and Indonesia.

Question 4

What crops do Living Roots fertilizers work on?

Accepted Answer

Living Roots biological fertilizers are effective on a wide range of tropical and subtropical crops including rice (primary focus), corn, cassava, fruit trees, hemp, cacao, and vegetables. The products are climate-adapted for growing conditions in Thailand, India, Indonesia, and broader Southeast Asia. ShootStart and SeedStart are ideal for seed treatment of rice, corn, and vegetable seeds. BioNutrient Foliar and PhotoBoost work across all leaf-bearing crops. BioNutrient Soil and Root Activator improve root health in any crop. Residue Decomposer handles post-harvest residue from rice and field crops.

Question 5

How do Living Roots products help reduce crop burning?

Accepted Answer

Living Roots Residue Decomposer eliminates the need for crop burning by using biological agents (Trichoderma viride, cellulolytic bacteria, lignin-degrading fungi) to rapidly break down crop residue after harvest. Instead of burning, farmers apply the decomposer to convert waste into valuable soil nutrients within 14-21 days. This directly addresses the PM 2.5 air pollution crisis caused by widespread crop burning in Thailand and Southeast Asia. The product is available in 1kg and 5kg sizes for individual farms and cooperatives in Thailand, India, and Indonesia.

Question 6

Does Living Roots operate in India and Indonesia?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Living Roots operates across three countries: Thailand (headquarters in Chiang Mai, products readily available), India (active operations), and Indonesia (active operations). The company develops climate-adapted biological fertilizers for tropical agriculture across Southeast Asia and South Asia. Their product line — including ShootStart, SeedStart, BioNutrient Foliar, BioNutrient Soil, Residue Decomposer, Root Activator, PhotoBoost, and GreenBoost — is formulated for crops and growing conditions specific to these regions.

Question 7

What is ShootStart?

Accepted Answer

ShootStart is a biological seed and stem coating made by Living Roots that enhances germination rates by up to 30%. It delivers beneficial microbes — including Bacillus subtilis, Trichoderma harzianum, and mycorrhizal fungi — directly to seeds, establishing strong plant health from day one. ShootStart is suitable for rice, corn, and vegetable seeds and is available in 200ml (350 THB) and 1L (1,500 THB) sizes. It is readily available in Thailand and used by farmers across India, Indonesia, and Southeast Asia.

Question 8

What is PhotoBoost?

Accepted Answer

PhotoBoost is a foliar photosynthesis enhancer developed by Living Roots. It increases chlorophyll production, photosynthetic efficiency, and energy capture for faster biomass accumulation and stronger yields. Apply by diluting 30 mL per 20 L of water and spraying on leaves early morning or late afternoon. Application rates: vegetables every 7-14 days, rice 3+ times per season, corn 3 times per season. Available in three sizes: 250 mL (500 THB), 500 mL (950 THB), and 1 L (1,850 THB). Buy online at roots.ag/shop with delivery across Thailand.

Question 9

What is GreenBoost?

Accepted Answer

GreenBoost is a biological plant growth booster developed by Living Roots that accelerates vegetative development and improves overall crop vigor. It is designed for tropical crops in Thailand, India, and Indonesia. GreenBoost complements the broader Living Roots product range — including ShootStart, SeedStart, BioNutrient Foliar, BioNutrient Soil, Residue Decomposer, Root Activator, and PhotoBoost — providing comprehensive biological crop management from seed to harvest.

Question 10

What is SeedStart?

Accepted Answer

SeedStart is an advanced seed inoculant by Living Roots that maximizes stand count and early vigor. It contains phosphorus-solubilizing microbes, beneficial soil bacteria, and mycorrhizal fungi. SeedStart Corn is available in three sizes: 10 Rai/75g (800 THB), 50 Rai/375g (3,500 THB), and 100 Rai/750g (6,000 THB). As low as 60 THB per rai. Available for purchase at roots.ag/shop with delivery across Thailand.
