   Treated Cabbage 31^st October

In this blog, we’ll look into a fascinating case study that showcases the incredible benefits of using Bioflora’s Go Isolates and Fulvex on cabbage crops. This study was conducted at a cabbage farm in Werribee, Victoria, and involved comparing treated and untreated fields.

The Study

The cabbage plants were sown on May 29^th and harvested on October 31^st. The treated field received 41% less water than the untreated field and was able to still improve yield and crop. Both groups were subjected to the same standard practices for fertiliser, herbicide, insecticide, and fungicide applications.

The Results

The results of the experiment were astonishing. While the untreated fields produced cabbages of reasonable quality, the treated fields yielded cabbages of excellent quality. This significant improvement can be attributed to the positive impact of Bioflora’s Go Isolates and Fulvex on the plants’ health and growth.

Taste Test & Nutritional Analysis

University of Melbourne Certificate 3 students conducted a blind taste test of cabbage treated with and without Bioflora. Participants overwhelmingly preferred the flavour, texture (easier to chew & break down, less stringy), and overall palatability of the Bioflora-treated cabbage. Samples were also sent to the state chemistry lab for elemental analysis. Out of the 12 elements analysed, 11 showed very little difference but Beta Carotene showed an astonishing 50% increase. 

The Secret Benefits of Beta Carotene

One of the key factors contributing to the superior quality of the cabbages from the treated fields is the increased beta carotene content. Beta carotene is a powerful antioxidant that offers numerous health benefits, including:

• Antioxidant properties: It helps protect cells from damage caused by free radicals.
• Eye health: As a precursor to vitamin A, beta carotene supports good vision and may reduce the risk of age-related macular degeneration.
• Immune system support: Vitamin A derived from beta carotene is essential for a healthy immune system.
• Skin health: Beta carotene can help maintain healthy skin and may protect against sun damage.
• Cancer prevention: Some studies suggest that diets high in beta carotene-rich foods may lower the risk of certain cancers.
