Trial Overview
A grass-finished cattle company, situated in Placer County, California, conducted a trial of Agrarius™ to assess the effectiveness of the product in promoting yield increases within their cattle's grazing lands, specifically with fescue grass. Looking to improve and grow their operations, the company was looking for a solution that could potentially allow for more cattle per acre utilizing the same amount of land. Agrarius™, an all organic liquid product specifically formulated for agricultural application, is designed to enhance the productivity, yield, and overall health of plants, thus allowing for more cattle per acre.
Materials & Methods
Roughly 4.5 acres were selected for the conducted trial, with 2.5 acres being treated with Agrarius™ and the other 2 acres acting as the control group.
Both fields were exposed to the same sunlight and irrigation to help mitigate any variance. Using a 5 gallon backpack sprayer, 10ml of Agrarius™ was mixed into the full 5 gallons of water and sprayed to cover about half an acre. The plants were sprayed with a heavy mist with no dripping.
The total amount of Agrarius™ used was about 50ml mixed into 25 gallons of water and sprayed over the full 2.5 acres. Results were monitored 3 weeks from the application date. Plant measurements such as grass height, grass width, root length, and colour were documented when evaluating the results of the grass.
Results & Data
The results of Agrarius™ over the 21 day trial were substantial in showcasing the effectiveness of Agrarius™ against fescue grass and impacting the company's overall ability to raise more cattle on the same amount of land.

<span class="heading-4 no-margin">The company saw a <span class="colour-span green">+52% increase</span> in plant height and a <span class="colour-span green">+51% increase</span> in plant width of Agrarius™ treated grass.</span>
Overall Plant Health, Color, and Yields of the Agrarius™ treated grass showed impressive improvements compared to the control group. Considering the very hot and dry climate of Northern California, the Agrarius™ treated group showed substantial resistance to the harsh weather during the trial as well. Overall, the trial proved the effectiveness of Agrarius™ in improving the productivity, yield, and overall health of the fescue grass.
