What is Alkaline Hydrolysis and how is it used in your soil solutions?

Alkaline Hydrolysis is a water-based process that uses alkaline hydrolysis to gently break down organic matter. At BARCO, we repurpose the natural byproducts of Alkaline Hydrolysis into high-quality, nutrient-rich soil solutions — creating a sustainable alternative to traditional chemical-based products.

What product lines does BARCO offer?

We currently offer three signature soil solution blends under the OrganiGro™ line:

  • Holy Carp! – A fish-based formula made from Alkaline Hydrolysis byproduct, rich in nitrogen and trace minerals.
  • Holy Cow! – A balanced, slow-release formula ideal for general soil health and long-term fertility.
  • When Pigs Fly! – A phosphorus-forward blend great for flowering plants and root development.

Each formula is designed to meet different soil and crop needs while staying true to our sustainable values.
