AgroVerm Humic Acid is derived from vermicompost—the nutrient-rich castings of Eisenia fetida earthworms. Unlike leonardite or algae extracts, our humic acids feature a superior molecular structure with high aliphatic content, making them highly bioactive and immediately available to plants.<br><br>Why Vermicompost Humic Acids Are Superior<br>Earthworm-derived humic acids have an H/C ratio of 1.5-1.8 and O/C ratio of ~0.6, indicating rich functional groups (carboxyl, hydroxyl, amino acids). This composition mirrors the humic substances found under deciduous forest canopies—nature's most fertile soils.<br><br>Soil Benefits<br>Nutrient Chelation: Binds micronutrients (Fe, Zn, Mn) in plant-available forms<br>CEC Improvement: Adds negative charge to sandy soils, preventing leaching<br>Structure Enhancement: Promotes stable soil aggregates, improving aeration<br>Microbial Fuel: Feeds beneficial bacteria and fungi<br>pH Buffering: Stabilizes soil pH in acidic or alkaline conditions<br><br>Plant Benefits<br>Stimulates white feeder root development<br>Increases chlorophyll production (greener leaves)<br>Enhances stress tolerance (drought, transplant shock)<br>Improves nutrient uptake efficiency by 30-50%<br><br>Application<br>• Soil Drench: Dilute 25ml in 2.5L water. Apply every 7-14 days during the growing season.<br>• Foliar Spray: Dilute 12ml in 2.5L of water. Spray in the early morning or evening to avoid leaf burn.<br><br>100% Organic & Sustainable: Produced in Slovenia using closed-loop vermiculture. No synthetic additives. Compatible with EU organic farming (Reg. 2018/848).<br><br>Amino Acid Profile: Contains all essential amino acids, including glycine, valine, alanine, leucine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid, proline, phenylalanine, tyrosine, cystine, methionine, threonine, serine, arginine, lysine, histidine, and ornithine—identical to amino acid spectra found in forest humus.<br>
