THE START UP
Oasis Agri was founded by Francis Yeatman in 1999 after identifying the decreasing nutrient balances of most crops; together with declining yields, depleted soil carbon levels, reduced water infiltration rates, and increased soil compaction; all on a global scale.,
In conjunction with overseas chemists, this led to the scientific development of Oasis™88, a bio-degradable soil enhancer designed to address soil compaction, salinity and improving nutrient bioavailability to the crop.
In order to address the depleted levels of essential trace elements in agricultural soils and produce, a specialised manufacturing plant was established; where prescription blends of trace elements are blended and granulated. A water-soluble powder blend option for application through fertigation systems is also supplied.
