Our Operations at Bona Gård, Munsö, Sweden
At 59Degrees, we operate from Bona Gård, an 800-hectare mixed-use farm managed by the fifth-generation Giertta family.
Situated at the challenging yet opportunity-rich 59˚ latitude, this location is the foundation of our advanced soil rehabilitation practices. Here, we expertly blend expert care, comprehensive knowledge, and a deep understanding of large-scale land management challenges to support transitions to regenerative agriculture.
Holistic Soil and Plant Health Methodology
We take a comprehensive approach to solving plant-soil issues by getting to the bottom of what’s really going wrong beneath the surface. Using a variety of techniques, we examine:
-
The chemical makeup and health of the soil
-
How water moves through soil and plants
-
Real time analysis of the sap & physiological health of your plants
-
The variety and activity of tiny life forms in the soil
Effective Strategies and Measurable Results
We carefully choose our actions based on detailed checks of:
-
The Pools of Carbon in your soil (Carbon cycling)
-
The relative amount of chemical salts & minerals in soil water (CEC)
-
The soil’s acidity or alkalinity (pH levels)
-
How well the soil holds together when wet (water stable aggregates)
-
How effectively the soil processes and recycles nutrients (nutrient cycling)
-
The health and activity of microbes in the soil (Microbial Biomass)
-
Nitrate levels & Brix in plant (sap testing)
-
Photosynthesis efficiency (Brix/TDS)
-
Nutrient balance in plant sap (offers data driven insights for plant development)
These targeted approaches help us boost crop & plant health, whilst strengthening the soil, reducing insect and weed pressure whilst also enhancing its ability to hold water & breathability; leading to regenerative outcomes for land and crop management.
Our Impact Across Industries
We work with a wide range of clients, from farmers to city planners, horticulturalists and gardeners. Our expertise helps fill crucial knowledge gaps about how plants interact with microbes in the soil and how nutrients move through different ecosystems. This leads to:
-
Stronger resistance to weather changes and other environmental challenges
-
Better availability of nutrients for plants
-
Healthier and more productive plants
-
Limited reactive and potentially toxic control therapies
How to Work With Us
No matter the size of your land—from large farms to small urban environments—our customised solutions promote healthier, more effective, and more productive environments. Our experienced team is ready to help you achieve rich, vibrant soils and thriving plants.
