Bees are the quiet force behind life as we know it. From pollinating crops to sustaining ecosystems, their impact is extraordinary.

At Afrikelp, we support sustainable agriculture by providing a natural kelp-based biostimulant that is safe for our pollinators.

Because thriving crops and thriving ecosystems go hand in hand.

Let’s grow stronger, more resilient plants—while protecting the pollinators that make it all possible.

Onions treated with AfrikelpĀ® consistently show improvements where it matters most — bulb development.

Field results demonstrate:
• Increased bulb weight and -diameter
• Consistent performance across seasons

From early growth to harvest, supporting plant physiology naturally leads to better outcomes in the field.

From flowering through to fruit set, plant response defines yield potential.

Afrikelp supports pepper crops where it matters most — enhancing natural plant processes to drive stronger fruit set and improved yield outcomes.


In a recent trial, Afrikelp-treated bell peppers showed a 20% increase in yield compared to the untreated control.

This trial was conducted by an external researcher.


The recommended application to achieve similar results in your fields:

6 Ɨ 3L/ha at key growth stages:

• 3–5 leaf stage (repeat after 14 days)

• Flower initiation (repeat after 14 days)

• Fruit growth (repeat after 14 days)



Consistent support. Stronger plants. Better yield.

Earth Day | Grow with Nature šŸŒ

Healthy oceans. Resilient soils. Stronger harvests.

This Earth Day, we’re reminded that nature already holds the answers. Kelp forests—among the fastest-growing ecosystems on Earth—help support marine life, capture carbon, and restore balance beneath the surface.

At Afrikelp, we responsibly harvest this renewable resource to support more sustainable agricultural practices—contributing to environmental stewardship, one farm at a time.

Take note, this is a single trial, harvested across 5 picks.



Strawberry farming is never predictable — but your yield can be.



Across five picks, Afrikelp treated plants delivered an average of 51% more berries than untreated controls.



Not a once-off result, a sustained advantage, across the complete harvest.



Better inputs, better outcomes.

Made by nature. Enhanced by science.

Our proprietary Cold Micronisation Process (CMP) is a gentle mechanical extraction process, designed to preserve the natural bioactive compounds found in fresh kelp without compromising its integrity.



This allows the production of a stabilised, biologically active, natural, phytobiostimulant-rich extract.



By preserving these valuable compounds, in combination with our triple quality control, crops receive the full benefit of kelp in its most complete form — delivering consistent, measurable performance in the field.

Sustainably harvested Ecklonia maxima kelp from Gansbaai is processed via Afrikelp’s patented Cold Micronisation Process (CMP) in Cape Town within 8 hours. No heat, no chemicals—engineered for consistent, phytobiostimulant-rich biostimulant extracts.

Strengthening global partnerships šŸ¤šŸŒ

We recently had the pleasure of hosting a valued delegation representing our partner Compo-Expert, with attendees from both Mexico and Peru, including crop advisors and key growers from the region.



From kelp harvesting through to formulation, the visit provided a full, transparent view of how we translate ocean-sourced raw material into solutions for modern agriculture.

Most importantly, we shared insights from our latest trial work, showcasing consistent, real-world performance across crops and conditions.



Engagements like these are critical, not just for alignment, but for building confidence through science, field results, and shared experience.



Together, we’re strengthening partnerships and delivering value where it matters most: in the field. 🌱
