Humate Benefits
Overview
.
Humates are
highly compressed, natural organic humus, the decayed remains
of tropical rain forests which existed millions of years ago
in what is now the southwestern United States. Humate
deposits were once buried deeply but have been exhumed to
near-surface conditions and oxidized by bacterial action in
exactly the same way as humus is formed in rich agricultural
soils. Thus, humates provide a concentrated source of
naturally-occurring humus to your soil.”
Humates have a high humic acid content (humic acid is one of
the most biochemically active elements in humus). The
minerals and trace elements contained in humates are readily
available to plants through the complex process of chelation.
Adding Humates is the most efficient way to increase the
humus content of soil, as it is highly compressed and much
easier to apply than any other form of humic matter. Also,
since humates are completely decomposed, they enter into no
nutritional competition with plants for nutrients such as
nitrogen (not the case with incompletely decomposed compost).
Using humates
restores the natural balance in soil necessary for optimal
plant growth. The benefits found in this section are
some of the results you can expect from applying humates.
