There is a recognized and increasing use of humic substances for their beneficial impact on the growth and cultivation of crops (vegetable & non-vegetable), citrus, turf, flowers and particularly in organically-deficient soils. Humic substances do not directly provide nutrients to plants, but is a powerful compliment to any fertilization program seeking productivity, profitability and sustainability.
Benefits from the use of humic substances include:
Addition of organic matter to
organically-deficient soils
Increases root vitality
Improved nutrient uptake
Increased chlorophyll synthesis
Better seed germination
Increased fertilizer retention and hence lower leaching
Stimulates beneficial microbial activity
Healthier plants and improved yields
