We are excited to introduce our new educational project, the Humic Conversations Video Series. As the name suggests, each episode of the series will focus on humic substances. Two leading researchers from our Humic Research Lab. Dr. Rich Lamar and Dr. Hiarhi Monda will share their expertise with the viewers.
In Episode 1 of this series, we discuss the basic science of humic substances. Dr. Lamar and Dr. Monda explain what humic and fulvic acids are, how they are formed, where they come from, and what their biostimulant properties are when it comes to plant and microbial growth.
The 16-minuite video is closed captioned in English and Spanish.
