The ficosterra-g® bokashi. The exclusive Ficosterra vegetable fertilizer
The word bokashi means “fermented organic matter” in Japanese.
Ficosterra composts its algae Gelidium in this way, and we associate that exotic name with our fertilizer ficosterra-g, a 100% organic product, absolutely exclusive and unique in all of Europe, whose function is to improve vegetative growth, rooting, flowering and germination of the plant.
It is a 100% vegetable product, free of seeds and weeds, and does not give off bad odors.
It is specially designated to be used as a soil improver in orchards, gardens, and plants as it facilitates water retention, substrate permeability, and drainage.
Also, it supports the absorption of nutrients by plants and neutralizes the absorption of heavy metals from herbicides and insecticides.
The bokashi ficosterra-g is registered as an organic supplement with the Spanish Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, Food, and Environment (MAPAMA).

All our products have SHC ecological certification
There are more and more demands from the market, the competition, and the consumer that demand the implementation of quality standards through different certifications, thus guaranteeing agri-food quality.
Also, the provision of a certification generates a position in the market against the competition, directly affecting the image of the company. This allows the company to compete in a broader market both nationally and internationally and build trust with customers and consumers.
Ficosterra has obtained in all its products the agro-food certification of Sohiscert (Sociedad Hispana de Certificación S.A.), an entity with more than 20 years of experience in certification and pioneers in the Ecological Production sector.
After confinement, all institutions must firmly commit to the innovation and sustainability of our crops

We know that more and more people are looking for this type of product to find an effective solution to help their crops grow while contributing to caring for our environment.
As said a few days ago, in an interview, Pedro Gallardo, President of the Alliance for Sustainable Agriculture (ALAS) and Vice President of the Association of Young Farmers (ASAJA):
“Only innovation and technology guarantee the sustainability of our agriculture.”
