Agricultural application

a) Improvement of soil

A common fertilizer (such as urea, potassium fertilizer or diammonium phosphate with purity of 50%-60%) is liable to make soil hardening. Potassium Humate can Improve soil aggregate structure, reduce compaction, and improve soil fertility activation by amending soil pH value. Potassium Humate can also provide soil with beneficial microorganisms, and a variety of humic acid, fulvic acid, humic peptide amino acid, carbohydrate and other organic substances and trace elements required by different plants. 

b) Increase of fertilizer efficiency

Functional humic groups of potassium humate can help absorb and keep potassium ions by preventing fertilizer losing from sandy soil or leaching soil. In addition, it can also prevent the viscous soil from potassium fixation. Fulvic acid and other low molecular weight humic acid in potassium humate can dissolve the minerals contained in potassium silicate and potassium feldspar by slowly decomposing and increasing the release of potassium. The utilization rate is of 87%-95% higher than ordinary fertilizer .

c) Promote the growth of crops, improve the quality of crops

Potassium humate is an excellent controlled release fertilizer by slowly releasing nutrients through its modulating function, which releases nutrients not too much in the early stage nor too less in the later stage, so that crops can keep steady absorption of nutrients with the result of increase in both output and quality. Promote plant’s roots growth. Improve quality of fruits such as watermelon, melon, sugar cane and beet etc.

d) Enhance the resistant ability of crops

Potassium humate can directly affect the cell metabolism of crops, increase crop respiration, photosynthesis, drought, cold resistance, and improve the crop ability of disease resistance, etc.

e) Environmental and ecological fertilizer

Potassium humate takes advantage of inorganic and farm yard fertilizers, being superior to them and showing a fair ability to the anti microbial decomposition. The ability of slow-release in decomposition surpasses all organic solid fertilizer.  Potassium humate can promote the decomposition of man-made chemicals (such as pesticides) or natural toxic substances. It is an ideal material base for production of green food to substitute potassium chloride and potassium sulfate, which is not only suitable for any crop, but also adaptable to match common fertilizer. Potassium humate can be applied with any ordinary fertilizer, being mixed with urea, phosphate fertilizer, potash fertilizer, and trace elements, and becoming a multifunctional high efficient compound fertilizer.
