Considering using a humic product to stabilize 32% uan in coarser soils. Shallow spring strip till. I’ve been reading up on it tonight and from every angle it seems to be a better product than instinct. Does anyone use it to stabilize N and can comment on how well it works compared to some of the more popular products on the market?

Starting my 10th year using humic acid on all the farm. There are many seller's of it but be very very careful that you do not buy crap that settles out. Try and find some from a smaller company that you can talk to a person that knows how to use it, not a salesman.

I looked a long time until I found a company that I felt I was comfortable with buying from. The company I have dealt with for 10 years has never told me that I will save money get bigger crop or otherwise save the environment. At the start of our conversation he said use my product on a small amount of Acres and let's talk about what you see the results are. I am now using many of his products on all my Acres and after 10 years I'm still trying other products that he has on small Acres the same way.

Also buy the book and read it once and then read it again and then read again the parts of it that interest you. It is expensive but worth the price. Some here on Newagtalk think the author is a jerk but what he has done is compiled 150 years of research into one book and when I check some of his appendix in the book I have always been able to find the actual test on the internet. Any questions my email is good.

Thanks for the info. I’m assuming it wasn’t pitched to you as something that’s saving money, getting a bigger crop and saving the environment, but it’s delivering those results for you? I’m out to keep my uan in the root zone and for some strange reason don’t like the idea of killing bacteria in the soil to do it. Would you say humics do that for you? If it saves money, grows a bigger crop, and helps me steward creation better, I’m all for that too.

Yes, my company has a engineered Humic that buffers the salt content in liquid nitrogen. When spraying it on wheat up to 78 degrees it will eliminate any burn to the leaves. It also acts as a natural nitrogen stabilizer without killing or destroying any of the soil's biology. In fact it works in conjunction with the soil biology to stabilize and help to make the nitrogen applied to be more efficient. visit our web site www.montysplantfood.com for information, thanks and have a blessed growing season.
