CFU (Colony Forming Units) are often used to compare microbial biostimulants, but a single number on a label rarely tells the full story. The article explains why CFU values only become meaningful when factors such as strain specificity, application rate, timing of measurement, and cost per applied CFU are taken into account.
The piece is aimed at growers, advisers, and industry professionals who want to evaluate microbial products based on technical and biological reality, rather than marketing claims.
