Highly Soluble Calcium for Optimum Crop Performance
Bio-Cal® is a proprietary calcium-based soil amendment from Midwestern BioAg®, formulated with five calcium sources that range from soluble to time-released. Containing 32% calcium, Bio-Cal® provides highly reactive, readily available calcium that benefits plants upon application and throughout the growing season. By improving water infiltration, soil structure, and nutrient availability, this product enhances crop performance and optimizes manure efficiency in the first year. Bio-Cal® acts as a catalyst in soil fertility programs, helping to mobilize nutrients, unlock soil potential, and promote healthier, stronger plants all season long.
- More Plant-Available Calcium: Bio-Cal® provides higher levels of soluble calcium than many other products. Materials such as dolomitic and calcitic lime have varying amounts of soluble calcium, often as little as 1-2 pounds per ton, while Bio-Cal has 150 pounds of soluble calcium per ton.
- Better Plant Health: For years, farmers have known calcium helps raise healthy, quality crops. Recent research supports this and has identified calcium as a key player in crop production.
- A Better Calcium Source: Multiple forms of calcium are present in Bio-Cal®, providing both highly available and slow-release calcium. These include calcium oxide and calcium carbonate.
- Easy to Spread: Bio-Cal® is specially formulated for easy application.
- High Quality: We routinely test to ensure materials used in Bio-Cal are free of contaminants. For more than 15 years, Bio-Cal® has met or exceeded government standards for heavy metals and organic toxins.
Results
- In a study conducted by the University of Wisconsin-Madison, the results showed that applying Bio-Cal® not only raises calcium levels, but also raises the level of other plant-available minerals: Potassium and Sulfur.
- In the same study*, the results showed that applying Bio-Cal® increased the Calcium to Magnesium ratio.
