Applications

Bentonite Products

Bentonite is used as an animal feed supplement, as a pelletizing aid in the production of animal feed pellets, as well as a flow ability aid for unconsolidated feed ingredients such as soy meal. It also is used as an ion exchanger for improvement and conditioning of the soil. When thermally treated, it can be used as a porous ceramic carrier for various herbicides and pesticides.

Humic Acid

Humic acid is one of the most important components of Agro-Lig®. Because of its molecular structure, it provides numerous benefits to crop production. It helps break up clay and compacted soils, assists in transferring micronutrients from the soil to the plant, enhances water retention, increases seed germination rates, penetration, and stimulates development of microflora populations in soils. Humic acid is not a fertilizer, but instead a compliment to fertilizer. Fertilizer is a nutrient source for both plants and microflora. Humic acid essentially helps move micronutrients from soil to plant. Its benefits have been proven both experimentally and in the field.
