Description –
In episode 50 of the Biological Farming RoundTable, host Nakala Maddock sits down with ECTOL founder and ag scientist John McKay. John walks us through the discovery of osmo protectants in marine algae, the first commercial frost protection applications in Australia, and how foliar nutrition evolved from horticulture into broadacre cropping and pasture systems. Along the way, he unpacks the big picture: why nutrient inefficiency and crop stress quietly and significatnly robs agriculture of their true potential yield, why nitrogen efficiency matters more than ever, and how products like ECTOL are designed to support healthier, more resilient plants without the boom and bust cycle of heavy urea use.
