Built for Better Yields

A practical guide to what each product does, when it fits and where it can earn a place on your acres.

Match the biology to the pressure.

Nutrients locked in the soil, reproductive demand, residue in the seedbed or weather stress—start with the problem that is costing the field potential.

Nutri-Cycle

Maximize your soil’s potential.

2026

Nutri-Cycle places a multi-strain microbial community around the root to help release phosphorus, potassium, nitrogen and trace nutrients while building a larger feeding zone.

Unlock paid-for fertility
helps mobilize nutrients already present in soil and previous inputs.
Build a bigger feeding zone
root colonization and biofilms help roots explore more soil and water.
Work through variable pH
Direct reports phosphorus solubilization from pH 4.5 to 9.0.
Improve the seedbed over time
supports residue cycling, reduced compaction and water retention.
Complement the fertility plan
adds biological access without positioning itself as a fertilizer replacement.

D-Comp

Make last season feed the next one.

2025

D-Comp combines fiber-decomposing enzymes, bacteria and fungi to open tough stalks, keep decomposition moving in cold conditions and return residue value to the soil.

Attack the hard parts
enzymes target lignin, cellulose, xylans and pectin.
Protect stand establishment
less stubborn residue supports seed placement, seed-to-soil contact and emergence.
Reduce the carbon penalty
faster breakdown helps shorten the period when residue ties up available nitrogen.
Keep fall work moving
Direct Biologicals states that D-Comp’s proprietary organisms catalyze residue decomposition at temperatures as low as 34°F.
Fit more field jobs
use it on surface residue, in-furrow or in manure programs.

Heat Shield

When Weather Attacks, Heat Shield Fights Back.

2025

Heat Shield uses living endophytic fungi inside the plant to help the crop manage heat, cold, drought, excess rain and salinity before stress takes more yield potential.

Run up to 10°F cooler
field trials cited by Direct showed lower canopy temperatures under heat stress.
Use water more efficiently
supports metabolism and water use when moisture is limited.
Hold onto yield potential
helps the crop keep growing and functioning through environmental pressure.
Support cold emergence
helps seedlings get moving when low temperatures slow early growth.
Cover 40 acres
one 4-ounce bottle treats 40 acres according to Direct Biologicals.

Nutri-Cycle Bloom

Harness Light. Feed Growth.

Tobacco flowers growing under a blue sky

Nutri-Cycle Bloom brings living purple non-sulfur bacteria into the reproductive window to support natural growth signals and the crop's demand for flowers, pods, kernels and fruit.

Hit the reproductive window
use at planting or target pre-flower, flowering and early fruit set.
Turn light into biological work
PNSB use microbial photosynthesis rather than simply supplying another nutrient.
Support yield-building sites
positioned for bloom set and pod, kernel or fruit development.
Keep key cycles active
supports nitrogen fixation, carbon assimilation and sulfur cycling.
Build crop quality
supports natural compounds tied to pigment, sugars and fruit quality.

Pit Digester Plus

The Smarter Way To Handle Manure

Hands holding soil

Pit Digester Plus uses a blend of concentrated bacteria and fungi to liquefy solids and reduce gas emissions in livestock manure. It promotes microbial fermentation, boosting nitrogen retention and nutrient content while reducing crusting and odors.

Break down solids
Breaks down solids, fiber and crusts using powerful microbes
Retain nitrogen
Traps nitrogen in ammonium form to reduce volatilization and nitrogen loss
Reduce gases and odors
Reduces corrosive gases and odors in pits and buildings
Improve pumpability
Improves pumpability and creates a more uniform, nutrient-rich slurry
