1. Product Portfolio Overview
COBI develops a range of organic fertilizers, biostimulants, and crop protection products, tailored for high-value crops like Agarwood, tropical spices, and perfumery plants.
| Product Type | Key Features | Target Crop / Application |
|---|---|---|
| Organic Fertilizers | Nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium (NPK) enriched from composted organic materials; slow-release | Agarwood, spices, ornamental/perfumery crops |
| Biostimulants | Microbial inoculants (beneficial bacteria, fungi), seaweed extracts, amino acids | Enhances root development, resin production, stress resistance |
| Soil Amendments | Humic acids, biochar blends, trace minerals | Improves soil structure, water retention, nutrient uptake |
| Integrated Crop Protection | Eco-friendly microbial and plant-based formulations | Fusarium control, pest deterrence, disease suppression |
2. Proprietary Technology & Formulations
COBI’s proprietary advantage lies in customized, science-driven formulations optimized for resinous and high-value crops:
- Agarwood-Targeted Fertilizer – Enhances tree growth and resin accumulation using a balanced micro- and macro-nutrient profile.
- Microbial Biostimulant Blend – Incorporates Fusarium-resistant beneficial fungi and nitrogen-fixing bacteriafor improved plant immunity.
- Traceable Production System – Digital tracking of batch formulation, soil application, and crop response ensures reproducibility and quality assurance.
3. R&D & Lab Capabilities
- Research Areas: Nutrient optimization for high-value crops, biostimulant efficacy trials, soil health enhancement, integrated pest management.
- Pilot Programs:
- 5-hectare Agarwood pilot with monitored soil nutrient and resin output.
- Spice and ornamental crop trials showing 15–25% yield improvement.
- Analytical Tools: Soil nutrient analysis, plant tissue nutrient profiling, microbial population assays.
4. Production & Quality Assurance
- Manufacturing Process:
- Raw material selection & testing (compost, minerals, microbial cultures)
- Formulation mixing under controlled conditions
- Quality testing for nutrient content, microbial viability, pH, and moisture
- Packaging with batch traceability
- Standards & Compliance:
- Philippine Department of Agriculture (DA) registered inputs
- Organic certifications under application (local and international markets)
- ISO-compliant quality control for batch consistency
5. Application Protocols for High-Value Crops
| Crop Type | Recommended Fertilizer Application | Biostimulant Use | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Agarwood | 500g–1kg per tree per quarter | Monthly microbial drench | Maximizes resin yield and tree growth |
| Tropical Spices | 1–2kg per 100m² per month | Bi-weekly foliar spray | Enhances fruit size and flavor profile |
| Perfumery Flowers | 200–500g per plant per month | Weekly soil drench | Supports flower quality, essential oil content |
All application rates are based on COBI pilot trials and can be adjusted according to soil tests and crop stage.
