	Products:
	BiohumateBiohumate: Increases nutrient availability and soil bioactivity A powerful biostimulant based on humic acid derivatives, Biohumate stimulates the micro population in the soil, improves bioavailability of nutrients and micronutrients and promotes root growth. Used both as a soil treatment and for foliar application.
	BiosulphurBiosulphur: Quickly improves soil structure, nutrient balance and pH This is liquid colloidal sulphur that is available very rapidly to adjust pH and to re-balance conditions to favour nutrient release. It is particularly useful on high Calcium or Sodium soils or where there are excessive levels of inorganic fertilizer residues. Also useful to adjust Sulphur deficiency and as a Sulphur source foliar spray.
	MycortexMycortex: Root extensions to acquire more nutrients Seedbed and root-zone treatment containing Mycorrhiza and Bactolife in a granular form to establish a synergistic population in the rhizosphere. Improves nutrient availability, moisture retention and helps to establish a biological barrier towards potential pathogens.
	ArhizoneArhizone: Gives transplants a flying start A gel forming version of Mycortex that is added to water to form a dipping mixture to treat the roots of transplants to establish a beneficial root zone population
	BactolifeBactolife Soil and foliar probiotic inoculants A range of water dispersible powders containing cultures of over twenty microorganisms. Used to repopulate the soil or to treat the crop canopy to introduce a range of beneficial bacteria and fungi, which will work in harmony with the plants to improve nutrient availability and uptake and to help resistance to stress and disease.
	Pan BusterPan Buster A powerful wetting agent and soil conditioner use to create improved structure and drainage. Works well with Biosulphur to remove excess salts or contaminants.
	BioflowBioflow An organic wetter, biostimulant and stress relief agent. Particularly useful for difficult to wet growing mixture and in irrigation for protected crops in hot climates.
	BiosilicateBiosilicate A specially formulated liquid silicon with good plant availability. Silicon strengthens plant cell walls leading to improved disease resistance and photosynthic activity, less fruit skin splitting and longer shelf life. It is also effective on sports turf.
	Hydropol/Hydropol HCHydropol/Hydropol HC This is a polyacrylamide water retaining polymer in a granular form. Used in planters and hanging baskets. Hydropol HC is a unique fine particle blend of polymer with a natural gum. It disperses evenly in growing mixes. Can be used to prepare root dips or as a partially biodegrable water retaining layer under turf.
	TotalizeTotalize An organic based liquid nutrient/biostimulant for turf designed to feed and stimulate both the grass and the microbial root zone population. Helps to balance nutrients and retain them for subsequent slow release. Naturally rebuilds organic soil content for healthier better looking turf. The Autumn grade has reduced nitrogen and increased phosphate to boost root strength prior to over wintering dormancy.
	Liquid IronLiquid Iron This is a rapidly available iron source as a tonic for lawns and ports turf. Quickly greens up grasses and improves disease resistance.
	Solutrace MSolutrace M Complexed Magnesium and Potassium in an acidic solution for application in alkaline areas where nutrient availability is limited by high soil or high irrigation water pH.
	HumibacHumibac Humates, Fulvates and microbial cultures in a dry blend to be added to granular fertiliser mixes to boost performance and to introduce beneficial microbes to the soil.
	SectopelSectopel This is a concentrated liquid blend of essential oils acting as insect repellent, easily dispersed in water to act as a barrier on plants liable to insect attack.

Agricultural Biostimulant

BIOHUMATE contains a unique blend of natural source ingredients that work directly in the soil to improve its fertility resulting in healthier, higher yielding crops. The over all benefits are:

Increased Cation Exchange Capacity
Increased Nutrient Absorption
Reduction of Nutrient Leaching
Increased Stress Tolerance and Plant Vigour

BIOHUMATE achieves these results by combining the properties of humic acid with a plant glycoside. They work together to improve the physical and chemical nature of the soil and at the same time, increase the activity of the beneficial microorganisms around the root zone.

Function in the soil
Improving the physical structure of the soil obviously permits better root development and penetration that allows the plant to make use of applied or available nutrients. Humic acid has a high cation exchange capacity (CEC) and acts as a reservoir for major and minor nutrients improving their availability. Increased activity by the microorganisms in the root zone improves the synergistic relationship between the plant and its attendant rhizosphere again improving soil structure, the availability of nutrients and also reducing the incidence of crop disease.

Water and oxygen need to be able to move through the soil and to become available in the root zone. The improved structure of the soil that results from the direct action of BIOHUMATE, together with the micro tilling, that occurs as a result of the microbial action, gives the soil a friable crumb structure, this allows water and air to move and prevents stagnation, reducing the conditions in which fungal infections an occur.
The need for organic matter in the soil is clear. The addition of BIOHUMATE, which contains a concentrated form of the beneficial part of rich humus, enables the grower to quickly obtain the performance of a good organic soil. It also creates the conditions whereby crop residues and other added organic wastes are broken down in the soil to return to the natural cycle.

Application
BIOHUMATE is applied at 3 litres/ha at the time of sowing and twice more at 4 weekly intervals2-4 times. On very low organic soils apply the full 9 litres at sowing. It should be diluted in 200 litres of water per hectare prior to spraying. It can also be incorporated into irrigation or drip feed systems.

Storing and Handling
BIOHUMATE is an alkaline liquid and must be handled with care. Keep sealed in original containers in cool conditions.
