The input feed streams are low value organic and/or inorganic byproducts; such as high Phosphorous content animal bone meal, and/or other by products; which can be valorization transformed and processed by added-value means. The 3R process: integrated and innovative thermal and biotechnological methods. ORIGINAL SOLUTION. The output products are different types of soil biotechnology specific solid carrier composits and formulated microbiological fungus and/or bacteria strain consortiums. Depending on the different soil and climate application scenario conditions, different types of relevant PROTECTOR products can be made.

PROTECTOR 3 in 1 TRIPLE EFFECTS:

1. Biological control: effects against soil borne plant pathogens, for substitution/significantly lower the input of agro chemicals.

2. Plant growth promotion: for natural support to produce higher plant yields with better quality and safer food products.

3. Natural N, P, K fertilization: Food crop mineral deficiency and disturbance stress mitigation in temperate climatic regions by restoration of soil natural balance.

   APPLICATION AREAS: horticultural organic and low input farming (vegetables, flowers, medicinal and aromatic plants)

COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES:

1. Increased yields.

2. Safe and high quality food for human consumption with higher levels of: nutrients, vitamin content, minerals and trace elements (higher dry substance, high BRIX) and antioxidant content.

3. Non detectable levels of diverse heavy metals. Non detectable levels of pesticides and chemosynthetics.

   ECONOMY: The PROTECTOR is turning trash into cash, and supporting economically sustainable horticultural organic farming operations.
