FAQs
The Natural Way to Build Fertile, Productive Soils
Huma’s OM 2–6 mm is a natural humic product processed from naturally occurring, oxidized humic lignite. It provides a concentrated source of humic substances and is a supplemental source of trace elements. Humic substances add organic matter to soils—which stimulates soil microbial life and soil fertility, enhances plant nutrient availability and uptake, improves root development and root mass and growth, and increases crop quality and yield.
OMRI-Listed® OM 2–6 mm is ground and screened to a uniform crumble (contains less than 3% dust) ideal for mixing with other dry inputs that are not hygroscopic. It can be applied to all soils—broadcast in fall, post-harvest, or early spring—either pre-plant or with seed. Incorporation is not required. It can be applied in bands, either with seed, fertilizer, or after planting.

Cherry Blossoms: A Sight to See
Cherry Blossoms: A Sight to See! Konnichiwa! This Week in Ag comes to you this week from Japan. I’m here for my son’s wedding. My new daughter chose this time of year to align with the famous blooming of the cherry blossoms. These Sakura trees provide amazing backdrops for wedding photos. You may have heard about Japan’s cherry blossoms and perhaps seen pictures online or on travel shows. But let me be clear: these do not do the flowers justice. The sights are awe-inspiring. Gardens, parks, temples, river banks and streets lined with Sakura trees provide spectacularly scenic backdrops. Pedals blow in the wind like gentle snowfall. A unique feature of some Sakura trees is their ability to bloom before leaves emerge, which further emphasizes the flowers.
