Solid Humates

Natural Southland humate for soil and fertiliser programmes.

How to use

Usage

Use as a soil conditioner to stimulate microbial activity and soil fertility, stimulate fungal activity and fungal mass, and increase water retention.

Solid humate can be spread on its own or mixed with products such as urea, lime or other fertiliser blends to reduce leaching and increase nutrient uptake in plants.
