Humus S

HUMUS-S is a biiodicate with a high content (60%) of humic acids, which have a positive effect on the natural (texture, structure, water holding capacity), chemical (cation exchange capacity, pH, carbon, enzymes, nitrogen cycle and availability of nutrients) and biological properties of the soil.

HUMUS-S promotes the production of plant growth hormones such as growth and cytokinin, which support plant resistance to environmental stress, nutrient metabolism and photosynthesis. HUMUS-S can provide soil microorganisms with additional carbon (C), which is essential for biological activities in the soil. This increases the microbial population while chelating trace elements from the soil solution, increasing their availability to plants.

HUMUS-S also improves the availability of nitrogen in the soil. Nitrogen is also contained in humic acid molecules and is available to plants after application to the soil. The application of Humus-S increases the effect of the phosphatase of soil microorganisms, which leads to an increased solubility of phosphorus (P) in the soil.

In addition, HUMUS-S has the ability to increase the permeability of the cell membrane and thus act as a carrier for the transport of nutrients to the plants. HUMUS-S also improves the availability of nitrogen in the soil. Nitrogen is also contained in humic acid molecules, which become available to plants after application to the soil. The application of HUMUS-S increases the phosphatase activity of soil microorganisms, which leads to increased solubilisation of P in the soil.

In addition, HUMUS-S has the ability to chelate and transport micronutrients into the plants by increasing the permeability of the plasma membrane and thus promoting nutrient uptake.
