Field Results & Soil Data
What the soil tests, the customers, and the published research show. Every number here comes from a named test on a named operation.
Side-by-Side: Carbonic Acid vs. Sulfuric Acid, One Season, Same Farm
A customer ran Haney soil tests on two blocks of the same farm for one season: one treated with sulfuric acid, one with ECO2MIX carbonic acid. Same crop, same water source, same weather.
Full dataset and methodology on the Carbonic Acid vs. Sulfuric Acid page.
Watch: ECO2MIX on the MyAgLife Podcast
Case Studies & Customer Stories
BeCrop Case Study: Strawberries
Soil microbiome analysis on a commercial strawberry operation. Functional biodiversity, nutrient cycling pathways, and disease-risk indicators measured before and after carbonic acid treatment.
Read →Seven Oaks Country Club: Turf Soil Sampling
Annual spring sampling program at a Bakersfield golf course, four seasons into carbonic acid water pH control. BeCrop and Haney tests tracked year over year.
Read →Silas Rossow, California Ag Solutions
An agronomy consultancy in Madera, California on why carbonic acid shifts microbial health further than sulfuric acid, and how improved soil reduced the fertilizer inputs they sell.
Read →Tom Lipscomb, Seven Oaks Country Club
The superintendent who brought irrigation water from pH 8.4 to 6.8 and has run the system for four seasons. What happened to calcium buildup and turf health.
Read →Tempranillo Vineyard: Carbonated Irrigation Research
A peer-reviewed, multi-year study of carbonated irrigation water in a Tempranillo vineyard: nutrient absorption, yield, and sugar accumulation.
