HPL is an excellent fertilizer

HPL is an excellent fertilizer

The first results from our series of commercial fertilizer trials with hydrolyzed protein liquid derived from abattoir tissue and blood processed with a MAAHP tissue processor. The graph attached below clearly shows the increase in plant biomass compared to the control when HPL is added to soil.
