Humic acid is one of the main components of humic substances and has a dark brown color. This compound contains sulfur, nitrogen, phosphorus in different percentages and some metals such as calcium, magnesium, copper and zinc. Humic acid fertilizer; It is a mixture of several compounds that generally have similar chemical properties and have different effects on soil and plant growth. This acid plays an important role in increasing and improving the ability of plants. Humic acid fertilizer increases the ability of plants to absorb nutrients from the soil.
Advantages of using humic acid:
Increased organic matter in soils with organic matter deficiency
Increase the rooting power of plants and trees
Helps improve the absorption of nutrients by plants
Increased production of chlorophyll and greens in tree leaves
Improve seed germination
Stimulation of beneficial microbial activity in soil
Improve and increase soil fertility maintenance of gardens and farms
Maintaining and increasing plant health and increasing crop production efficiency
The use of humic acid in irrigation is effective in controlling some root diseases.
Being organic and therefore healthy and safe for the environment, animals, plants and humans
Stimulants of plant enzymes
Increase antioxidant activity
It is a good source of phosphate and carbon and stimulates the microflora population. This results in a healthier soil with a balanced flora in healthy plants.
Helps reduce the toxicity of substances such as heavy metals, hydrocarbons and pesticides, and reduces toxic sodium.
Reduce soil erosion by increasing the cohesion of fine soil particles
One of the functions of humic acid is to help lower the pH of alkaline and calcareous soils. Of course, other materials such as sulfuric acid or ammonium sulfate fertilizer can also be used to improve alkaline and calcareous soils and to reduce the acidity of agricultural soils. Humic acid also increases resistance to water and soil salinity, dehydration and cold in plants. Humic acid fertilizer on the one hand dissolves and absorbs insoluble elements in the soil and on the other hand causes the preservation of these elements in itself and its transfer to the plant roots at the right time.
