Explanation:
"Byron's soil is carefully managed with biofermento, a homemade liquid fertilizer that promotes the action of microorganisms".

However, I'm not sure that it has to be liquid - from Googling, it seems to refer to any organic substance that has been rotted down to make fertilizer.

Explanation:
Already proposed by agromusica, I have the impression that those words as "biofermentos" were originally the translation from English of "bioferments".
