Examples of using Leonardite
Growing grain crops
In the fields, where was Leonardite used?, a stable increase in wheat yield was noted, barley and other grains for 15-25%. Humic acids improved soil structure, accelerated germination and provided plants with better nutrition during key periods of the growing season. The effect is especially noticeable on depleted and overconsolidated lands, where without stimulants growth was slowed.
In addition to yield, grain quality has increased: protein content, gluten and mass 1000 grains improved compared to control plots.
Vegetable growing in greenhouses
In greenhouses, Leonardite showed excellent results when growing tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers. The drug reduced soil acidity, prevented the accumulation of nitrates and accelerated plant fruiting. The harvest was more uniform, with a lower percentage of defects, fruits are bright, dense, were well stored after collection.
Greenhouse plants also noted the economic effect: reducing the cost of fertilizers and stabilizing the phytosanitary condition of the soil.
Increasing cattle productivity
On farms, where Leonardite was used in the diet of cows and calves, improved digestion noted, reduction in the number of gastrointestinal diseases, growth of general immunity. Weight gain occurred faster in young animals, the milk yield of the dairy herd improved.
The use of Leonardite has also reduced the need for drug treatment, thanks to which farms saved on veterinary costs and received more environmentally friendly products.
Reclamation of former quarries
In the territories of former quarries and landfills, with the help of Leonardite, it was possible to 2-3 years to restore the fertile soil layer and launch natural biological processes. The soil became suitable for subsequent landscaping, planting trees and crops.
Leonardite accelerates the decomposition processes of toxic residues, binds heavy metals, normalizes soil structure. This gives a quick visual effect: revegetation, disappearance of erosion, reduction of weeds.
Improvement of parks and squares
Municipal services use Leonardite for lawn care, flower beds, trees and shrubs in cities. The drug helps plants quickly adapt to transplantation, stimulates growth, increases the density of the lawn and the saturation of its color. Vegetation becomes more resistant to dust, exhaust gases and temperature changes.
In urban conditions, the use of humic preparations allows saving water for irrigation, reduce the cost of replacing dead plants and reduce the amount of chemical fertilizers.
