HUMAC® AGRO HELPS ENVIRONMENT
In recent years, HUMAC® Agro has garnered attention for its proven effectiveness in a host of environmental applications such as tree planting & forestry, landscaping, restoration of degraded soils as well as for the stabilization and remediation of contaminated soils or land reclamation and other such applications.
​
HUMAC® AGRO IN FORESTRY
For example, in forestry applications of HUMAC® Agro with its high content activated humic acids have shown to strengthen tree immunity improving the odds of germination and survival in their first year. By improving soil structure, humic acids also improve the soil’s water retention capacity which is especially crucial in natural environments without irrigation systems. Trials have shown greater root development and above ground tree growth in test groups compared to control groups. Equally, the product has been applied in landscaping activities such as the renewal of school lawns and soccer fields that see intensive activity.
HUMAC® AGRO IN REMEDIATION ACTIVITIES
In remediation activities, activated humic acids have shown to stabilize contaminated soils without the requirement to place arable land out of commission. Numerous tests have shown how the application of HUMAC® Agro has significantly reduced the uptake of toxins by crops as well as has significantly reduced their bio-availability in soils. Additionally, natural humic acids have virtually no toxicity and support the various mechanisms required for the growth of healthy vegetation and fertile soils. As such, HUMAC® Agro can be incorporated into the process of land reclamation after mining activity or the revegetation of ash heaps, taillings ponds or other environmentally hazardous sites.
Our Solutions for the environment
HUMAC® Agro, a natural soil conditioner, offers a solution to tackle present-day environmental challenges.
HUMAC® Agro has gained recognition in recent years for its proven efficacy in various environmental applications, including tree planting, forestry, landscaping, soil restoration, and the stabilization and remediation of contaminated soils or land reclamation projects.
For instance, when used in forestry, HUMAC® Agro, with its high concentration of activated humic acids, has demonstrated its ability to enhance tree immunity, improving the chances of germination and survival in the crucial first year. By enhancing soil structure, humic acids also improve the capacity of the soil to retain water, which is particularly important in natural environments without irrigation systems.
Trials have shown increased root development and above-ground growth in test groups compared to control groups. Similarly, the product has been successfully applied in landscaping activities, such as renewing school lawns and soccer fields that experience heavy usage.
In remediation activities, activated humic acids have proven effective in stabilizing contaminated soils without the need to render arable land unusable. Numerous tests have shown that the application of HUMAC® Agro significantly reduces the uptake of toxins, both organic and inorganic, by crops, while also decreasing their bioavailability in the soil.
Activated humic acids represent a new generation of solutions for effective in-situ and ex-situ soil remediation. Moreover, natural humic acids have negligible toxicity and support the essential mechanisms necessary for the growth of healthy vegetation and fertile soils. Consequently, HUMAC® Agro can be seamlessly integrated into the process of reclaiming land after mining activities or revegetating environmentally hazardous sites like ash heaps and tailings ponds.
