Using our mycorrhizal fungal pellets enhances tree growth rates, decreases tree mortality rates, increases a trees tolerance to drought conditions and increases the amount of carbon sequestered by our newly planted woodlands. Our team have been collecting and building an extensive fungal library over the past two years, collecting data on how different strains and species perform under different soil and environmental conditions allowing us to match fungal organisms to the site they will be used on, maximising the timber, carbon and biodiversity benefits for our customers.
