Humic Acid compound fertilizer is a kind of fertilizer that combines humic acid with NPK fertilizers or medium and trace elements fertilizer. Because it contains humic acid, it greatly increases the utilization rate of fertilizer, making it more effective than normal fertilizers.
6. The price difference of humic acid products between the cheapest one and the most expensive one is 10 times, why?
This mainly depends on which kind of humic acid the product is and which kind of raw material is used.
Water-insoluble humic acid is very cheap and can be just used as a soil conditioner in agriculture.
Potassium humate which contains high fulvic acid is very expensive, but it’s very nice to be used as foliar fertilizer in the irrigation system with very high performance. Sometimes, in the whole growth cycle of crops only need to use 10-15 kg/Ha will have very good results. The water solubility of New-Nutri Potassium Fulvate(it’s also called potassium humate but contains 50% fulvic acid) is 100% without any sediment, it’s suitable used with many other chemical fertilizers include NPK and trace elements.
Bio Humic Acid is extracted from leftovers or molasses, its cost of raw material and production is low, so the price is cheap. But the mineral humic acid’s performance is much higher than bio humic acid.
7. Questions of Potassium Humate
If good quality potassium humate is shiny flakes? What’s the difference between it and sodium humate?
Good quality potassium humate must be shiny, but not necessarily flakes. New-Nutri Potassium Humate can be manufactured in many forms, such as powder, flakes, crystal, and granules, all of the above forms are shiny on good quality.
You can’t tell the difference between potassium humate and sodium humate just by looking at their appearance, their water solubility and the content of humic acid they have. You have to test the content of K2O or sodium to differentiate.
As far as we know, there are some agricultural chemical companies purchasing sodium humate in the market, but they thought it is potassium humate. Potassium humate, in addition to humic acid, contains potassium which is a nutrient necessary for plant growth, while sodium humate does not. If you have any problem with how to test them, please don’t hesitate to contact us, we will help you out.
After using potassium humate for your crops, don’t need anymore potash fertilizer?
The answer is no.
The content of K2O in New-Nutri potassium humate is around 10~12%, relative to the pure potash fertilizer, the content is still insufficient, so after the use of potassium humate, still need to apply other potassium fertilizer according to your crops’ growth requirements.
Why some potassium humate products anti – flocculation, some not?
The potassium humate used for leaf spraying requires a good water solubility. People usually first mix the solid potassium humate into liquid fertilizer. If there is sediment or flocculation, it can affect the effectiveness of the application, and sometimes even the atomizer or drip irrigation system can be blocked.
Anti – flocculation depends on the content of fulvic acid content of potassium humate. It contains high fulvic acid, then there is no flocculation.
