Synthetic chemical fertilizers are an important and integral part of farming. However, given specific soil conditions and farming practices, fertilizer loss (inefficiency) due to leaching and evaporation, increase the cost of farming and diminish crop yields. Additionally, chemical fertilizers leach into ground water, rivers, streams, and lakes resulting in major problems like eutrophication.
NutraSafe™ is a technology designed to increase fertilizer efficiency and reduce adverse environmental effects, while improving the natural bio-cycle of the soil. NutraSafe™ also protects the soil’s organic matter and minerals from unnaturally rapid decomposition. Once applied to damaged and degraded soil, it helps to return it to a fertile and productive soil structure and composition.
NutraSafe™ is a dry Active Humic Compound that is used as a chemical fertilizer coating or by itself. In both cases, NutraSafe™ acts as a soil ameliorant, conditioner and bio stimulator, increasing the overall organic content of the soil and promoting healthy, native microbial activity. NutraSafe™ also holds onto fertilizer, making it more available for plant uptake and less available for leaching and evaporation. Examples of NutraSafe™ applications:
|
Some additional benefits include:
- Increased fertilizer utilization (slow release resulting in less leaching)
- Increased soil water holding capacity
- Increased bio-activity from native microbes
- Increased decomposition of agrochemical pollutants
- Reduced impact from excess pesticides, nitrates, heavy metals and other toxins on plants
- Reduced soil compaction
- Increased micronutrient content
NutraSafe™ supports a much greener and responsible agricultural strategy. It overcomes many of the environmental (biological, chemical and geological) problems associated with common fertilizers and pesticides.
