Effects of AMALGEROL on straw decomposition
DI Othmar Nolz, Hechenbichler GmbH, Austria
Poorly decomposed straw and plant residues lead to problems in cultivation, plant growth, and plant health, including the transfer of pathogens and decreased humus. Applications of AMALGEROL and AMALGEROL ESSENCE significantly reduce plant residues, improve soil structure, and increase humus content, which helps store CO2. Using AMALGEROL combined with bacteria reduces straw and soil resistance, resulting in less cutting force needed, reduced pulling-off force, and decreased fuel consumption during tillage.
New AMALGEROL-World in Hungary
Attila Takács, HECHTA Kft., Hungary
In Hungary, AMALGEROL has been used to treat a significant number of hectares, and it increases the population of beneficial bacteria in the soil. AMALGEROL is often sold in twin-packs with other products, such as live soil bacteria, glyphosate, or tebuconazole, to enhance their effects. AMALGEROL ESSENCE, is a newer product targeted for premium segments like grape, fruit, and vegetable production, and it has shown increased yields in trials with grapevines, apples, and tomatoes.

AMALGEROL Essence - Trial results & farmer experience
Vasilena Rangelova, Hechenbichler Representation Office for Bulgaria, Romania & Moldova
Trials conducted in Sadovo, Bulgaria in 2019 on wheat and sunflower crops demonstrated significant yield increases when using AMALGEROL ESSENCE, with wheat yields nearly doubling in some trials and sunflower yields increasing by up to 91%. The application of AMALGEROL ESSENCE often combined with other fertilizers and probiotic bacteria showed improved crop germination, tillering, and overall health, even after experiencing frost or drought conditions. Bulgarian farmers using AMALGEROL ESSENCE have also reported easier tillage, decreased fuel expenses, and plan to increase their usage of the product in coming years due to the positive results.

AMALGEROL in Greece - latest experiences with AMALGEROL sales
Sophocles Mylonas, ELANCO HELLAS S.A.C.I., Greece
AMALGEROL is used in Greece to improve crop establishment, enhance decomposition of plant matter, and recover plants from stress. It also helps with transplanting, root development, nutrient absorption, and increased fruit yields. Various examples demonstrate its application on different crops like cotton, cereals, chickpeas, lentils, pistachio trees, apricots, vines, apple trees, and cherry trees, showing positive results.
AMALGEROL in field crops
Martin Miko, ISAS SK s.r.o., Slovakia
Agricultural land usage in Slovakia, including details on arable land and specific crops like cereals, corn, and oil seed rape, was presented. Field trials showed that AMALGEROL applications resulted in increased yields for various crops such as spring barley, sunflower, and corn. Further trials demonstrated that AMALGEROL treatments led to higher numbers of grains per ear in spring barley and more siliques and stems in winter oil seed rape compared to control groups.
AMALGEROL experience in Spain last years
Pedro Jesus Espinosa, FMC Agricultural Solution SAU, Spain
AMALGEROL's success in the Spanish market is highlighted, with its application across various crops such as citrus, olive, and strawberry.
