Why Now is the Time for EcoAdvance® Premium Biology on Your Turf
Spring is the perfect time to set your turf up for a strong summer ahead.
As soil temperatures rise and turf breaks winter dormancy, roots become active and ready to take up nutrients. With EcoAdvance® Premium Biology, you’re not just fertilising—you’re building a healthier, more sustainable turf ecosystem from the ground up.
The EcoAdvance® Biology Advantage
EcoAdvance® Biology, included in Matchplay granular fertilisers such as MP ORIGIN, MP SPECTRUM, MP TURF STARTER and other fertilisers within Living Turf’s product range. EcoAdvance® Premium Biology is a proprietary inoculum containing:
Bacillus spp.: These beneficial bacteria solubilise phosphorus, fix atmospheric nitrogen, and stimulate root growth.
Trichoderma spp.: Fungi that solubilise soil minerals, and promote root development.
Glomus spp.: Mycorrhizal fungi that extend root reach and create a network for nutrient and water exchange.
Biostimulants: Nutrients and phytohormones that boost microbial and root growth
EcoAdvance® premium biology contains viable microbial spores.
How Does It Work?
EcoAdvance® Biology is activated by water when fertiliser granules are applied. This “kick-starts” microbial activity, connecting turf roots with the soil microbiome and supporting natural cycling, nutrient release, improved soil structure, and moisture retention.
Why Apply Now
The microbes in EcoAdvance® are activated by water and available nitrogen, quickly colonising the soil and forming a living bridge between fertiliser nutrients and turf roots. This early-season boost:
Maximises spring recovery through nutrient uptake during Spring, ensuring turf receives the essential nutrition needed for growth
Strengthens turf against stress and promotes faster recovery after winter, helping your surfaces bounce back and thrive through play.
Builds healthy soils that supports turf health, creating a resilient foundation for sustained performance throughout the year.
