Features and Benefits
- Improves soil structure and moisture retention
- Stimulates soil microbial activity
- Improves soil carbon levels
- Increases plant nutrient uptake and reduces leaching
How it works When Liquid Organic Humate is applied to the soil it helps release bound nutrients, providing on going benefit to plants. In sandy soils it also helps reduce nutrient leaching. Humate also assists the development of improved friability in clay soils and soil moisture retention in sandy soils.
How to use it Using Liquid Organic Humate is simply a matter of spraying it onto the soil after cultivation or bed-forming to repair and protect the damage that cultivation causes to soil structure and function. It is best used in conjunction with an existing fertiliser program to maximise the effectiveness of the fertiliser.
For optimum effectiveness Liquid Organic Humate should be applied prior to planting, after cultivation and bed-forming is completed. It is suitable for use as a soil application via boom spray or irrigation. It is especially useful for soil or seed-bed preparation, or as an additive to liquid feeds. The product is suitable for application by boom spray, irrigation or fertigation equipment.
