Adding rock dust to farmer’s fields captures carbon and boosts yields
Large-scale field trials of rock dust applications in agriculture are precisely what we need to harness the benefits of applying crushed calcium and magnesium silicates […]

CW Grow Farm & Forests
Pests don’t like plants grown with CW Grow
This week we added two studies to our growing agricultural research database. These two studies are a few years old, but the concept is a new and […]
What farmers say about CW Grow
CW Grow is composed of 100% carefully mined wollastonite and works on all soil types at low and high application ranges for a wide diversity […]
Results from Ontario fields using CW Grow
CW Grow is made of 100% single-source natural and carefully mined wollastonite. CW Grow has been used for many years with great results on farms […]
Silicon boosts plant growth under simulated climate change scenarios
This is study shows a strong potential for silicon to maintain plant growth under elevated temperature and CO2 levels in a legume plant. Specifically, increased […]
Towards establishing broad-spectrum disease resistance in plants: Silicon leads the way
The title of this blog is the title of the research paper, what a title. Our latest addition to our agricultural research database focuses […]
Building stronger cell walls with CW Grow for less disease
One of the main ways CW Grow increases disease tolerance in plants is by increasing the strength and toughness of the cells in the plant. […]
The Science of Capturing Carbon
How U of G engineers are reducing climate change by trapping carbon dioxide in soils Human actions, such as a gas-guzzling morning commute, have led […]
How does CW Grow capture carbon?
Spread it and forget it, CW Grow can permanently store up to 50% of its weight in carbon dioxide. Storing carbon for the long haul […]
CW Grow is quick acting, especially for a rock
CW Grow gets to work right away once it is in contact with soil. In fact, good old water can release nutrients like calcium and […]
