Client Profile
Farm Overview
● Farm Name: GreenHorizon Tomatoes
● Location: Flevoland, Netherlands
● Farm Size: 2 hectares (small-scale organic tomato farm)
● Challenge: Soil-borne pathogens and inconsistent plant growth affecting yield
Introduction
At Dexing Biotechnology Co., Ltd, we are committed to sustainable agricultural solutions. Our Bacillus subtilis biofertilizer was recently implemented at GreenHorizon Tomatoes, a small farm in Flevoland, Netherlands, to enhance soil health and tomato productivity naturally.
The Challenge
The farm faced recurring issues with:
● Fungal diseases (e.g., Fusarium wilt) reducing plant vigor
● Nutrient uptake inefficiency due to imbalanced soil microbiota
● Dependence on chemical inputs, conflicting with organic farming goals
Our Solution: Bacillus subtilis Probiotic Treatment
We introduced a customized Bacillus subtilis strain to:
● Suppress soil pathogens: Competitive exclusion of harmful fungi
● Stimulate root growth: Enhanced nutrient absorption (N, P, K)
● Improve stress resistance: Better tolerance to fluctuating weather in Flevoland
Application Method
● Soil drenching during planting
● Foliar sprays at critical growth stages

Farmer Feedback
"The tomatoes grew more uniformly, and we saw fewer wilted plants. The best part? We’re now closer to being 100% organic." — Jan Visser, Farm Owner
Why This Works in Flevoland
The region’s clay-rich soils and humid climate make it prone to fungal pressures. Our Bacillus subtilis thrives in these conditions, colonizing roots to form a protective biofilm while decomposing organic matter for slow-release nutrients.
Sustainable Impact
Reduced chemical runoff into Flevoland’s water systems
● Healthier soil microbiome for long-term fertility
● Higher market value for organic-certified tomatoes
Next Steps
GreenHorizon Tomatoes plans to expand the treatment to their entire acreage and trial our mycorrhizal blend for further synergy.
