Background Charcoal rot, caused by the soil-borne pathogen Macrophomina phaseolina, can be a significant threat to strawberry production. Two Huma® products, Promax® and Zap®, had previously been shown to be successful in managing soil-borne diseases in strawberries. Objectives The primary objectives of this study were to assess the efficacy of Promax® and Zap® in reducing

Objective  This field trial was conducted to observe effectiveness of additional preharvest applications of Huma® products on recoverable sugar of sugar beets and return on investment. Materials & Methods  This trial on sugar beet (Beta vulgais vulg. altissima) was conducted in Homedale, Idaho. The crop was seeded on May 8 and was harvested on October

Background Humic substances have been shown to improve crop yield. Solid and liquid forms of humic substances with high levels of organic acids can be produced by incorporating Micro Carbon Technology®. Some are suitable for conventional and others for organic farming. Huma® OM Liquid HA 16, OMRI-Listed for organic farming, is a liquid form of

Conducted by: Bruce Kirksey, PhD, Agricenter International, Memphis, Tenn. Huma® Product: Huma Pro® Mix Background Scientific research shows that humic and fulvic acids are biostimulants—enhancing nutrient availability and uptake, improving plant root growth and mass, and impacting both crop yield and quality. Humic acid products are not all the same. They are marketed in solid

Objective  Huma® Zap® has been shown to improve crop yield and soil conditions. This research investigated some of the ways Zap improves soil characteristics such as soil biology and soil structure.  Materials & Methods  Two sets of soil in containers received two different solutions. The first received 120 ml of only water and the second

Objective  To demonstrate the effects of Huma® products X-Tend®, Fertil Humus®, Fertil Soil®, and Zap® on the reduction of nitrogen and phosphorus leaching in Immokalee sandy soils.  Background  The leaching of nitrogen and phosphate fertilizers presents an ongoing problem in Florida soils. Agricultural amendments that reduce leaching when applied to soils or when mixed with
