The effectiveness of humates significantly depends on the raw material composition, explained the woman scientist

Humates contain many useful components: humic acids, humic salts, fulvic acids and salts, carbon, microelements. Such fertilizer is simultaneously a stimulator, completely natural and contains few ballast substances, which, by the way, are entirely natural and do not interfere with the substance cycle in the agrocenosis and do not threaten the life of any of its components. This is written by Kateryna Vedmedyeva, Candidate of Biological Sciences, Deputy Director for Scientific Work at the Oil Crops Institute of NAANU, in her article in The Ukrainian Farmer magazine. "Humates are a quite effective and progressive option for plant nutrition and the entire agrocenosis as a whole. They have some drawbacks related to their natural origin. The complexity lies in the fact that they are produced from natural brown coal, which, like any other fossil, is created by nature and does not have a standard substance composition.
