# EnSoil Algae may shift the soil-health paradigm for U.S. growers

Publication Date: 10.12.2025, 10:00

New live-cell algae product promises to cut fertilizer use while boosting yields and soil resilience.

A startup called The Live Cell Algae Group says its new product, [EnSoil Algae](https://thelivecellalgaegroup.com/ensoil-algae), could offer a breakthrough for farmers seeking to reduce reliance on conventional fertilizers by reviving soil biology. The firm markets the product as a live-cell solution based on green algae that, according to its website, remains viable for months and helps jump-start beneficial soil microbes, improve nutrient cycling, and support long-term soil fertility.

EnSoil Algae is a liquid concentrate — supplied in containers ranging from one to five gallons — that the company recommends applying at roughly eight ounces per acre (or about one teaspoon per gallon of water), either through irrigation systems, sprayers, or even drone spraying. The simplicity of the application, combined with the claim that it can be used in both organic and conventional farming systems, is presented as a key advantage over traditional soil amendments.

According to case studies on the company’s site, some growers have reported substantial gains. One corn operation in North Carolina reportedly achieved a U.S. dryland record yield of 460 bushels per acre using EnSoil Algae without additional synthetic fertilizer. Another ranch in Montana said that after applying only the algae-based treatment, its pasture and hay yields increased and its cattle required far fewer mineral supplements.

Proponents of the product highlight potential benefits including improved plant chlorophyll and photosynthetic activity, enhanced drought resilience, better soil structure and water retention, and a reduction in the use of NPK fertilizer by as much as 40 percent.

As calls for regenerative agriculture intensify amid concerns about soil degradation, EnSoil Algae may draw increasing interest — but independent, peer-reviewed field trials and long-term soil monitoring would likely be needed before the wider farming community can assess whether such results can be replicated at an industrial scale.
