Testimonial

Gergely Sztupa, Plant Production Manager and Sobac’s Ambassador in Hungary, shares his success story using Sobac technologies. His farm, located 15 km from Lake Velence, south of Budapest, spans 1,150 hectares, with 700 hectares dedicated to his own operations and 450 hectares integrated with other farmers.

 

Farm Overview:

  • Size: 1,150 ha (700 ha owned, 450 ha integrated)
  • Livestock: 900 heads, milking 600 Holsteins
  • Soil Type: Mezőségi (Csernoziom) – 80% clay, 20% silt
  • Manure Production: 8,000 T/year
 

Challenges : Before using Sobac technologies, Gergely’s farm faced issues with manure management, including poor decomposition and excessive straw content, which led to poor soil quality and difficulties in manure application.

Solutions with Sobac: Since 2010, the farm has been using Sobac’s Bactériolit® and Bactériosol® technologies, leading to:

  • Improved Manure Quality: Transformation into a humus-like product with reduced odor.
  • Optimized Application: Reduced manure usage from 30-40 T/ha to 10-20 T/ha.
  • Better Soil Structure: Softer, more balanced soil with improved water retention.
  • Cost Savings: Reduced need for conventional fertilizers such as phosphorus, potash, and lime.

 

Results:

  • Enhanced soil fertility and balanced crop yields.
  • Easier fieldwork with a sponge-like soil texture.
  • Significant cost reductions and better environmental management.

 

Conclusion : Gergely’s farm has fully integrated Sobac technologies, resulting in sustainable agriculture practices and improved efficiency. The success of Sobac’s solutions on his farm highlights the potential benefits for other farmers facing similar challenges.
