HUMISTART® is a highly soluble granular soil conditioner, featuring our patented Calcimer and Pheoflore technologies. It supplies labile forms of calcium, sulfur, magnesium, and trace amounts of boron, iron, and zinc, and stimulates soil microbes.
Calcimer is a porous marine calcium carbonate that improves soil structure and provides trace minerals with enhanced solubility and reactivity. Calcimer is a source of calcium that is more soluble than other forms of agricultural lime.
The Pheoflore Complex stimulates soil microbes and improves soil biological health and nutrient availability through mineralization.
A rate of 50–200 lbs/ac is appropriate for most crops. Tree fruit and vegetables benefit from rates of 200–400 lbs/ac to increase calcium. Works well on soils with more than 2% organic matter, no-till operations, and fields with heavy manure use. Apply alone or blend with fertilizer, especially if soil pH is 6.5–7.0 to maintain neutrality.
Timac Agro USA develops, manufactures and sells fertilizers, patented liquid formulas, inoculants and livestock products specifically developed for sustainable and effective total farm health.
