Field results reported by the producer
The producer reports field trials in 2024 on cotton in Uzbekistan and on bananas, coffee, maize and papaya in Uganda and Equatorial Guinea. Two examples from the producer's 2026 presentation:
| Trial | Producer-reported result |
|---|---|
| Banana seedlings, Mbarara, Uganda, 24 November – 31 December 2024 | On day 8, treated plants measured 35–47 cm against 14–16 cm in the untreated control |
| Cotton, Tashkent region, Fergana Valley and Samarkand region, Uzbekistan, 20 June – 19 August 2024 | Treated plots: plants up to 90 cm, more than 12 branches, 23–47 bolls. Control plots: up to 70 cm, about 9 branches, 15–21 bolls |
The producer states that BIOTORF is exported to nine countries, including Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Egypt, Equatorial Guinea and Venezuela, and that it received a bronze medal at the Golden Autumn 2023 agricultural exhibition. These claims have not been independently verified for Philippine conditions, so a local trial on the buyer's crops is recommended before commercial volumes.
