Concentration of Humates in TURPS

Why Humates Matter in Soil Health

Humates are the heart of fertile soil. Naturally produced by soil bacteria, these organic compounds play a critical role in nutrient retention, water binding, and plant growth. However, modern agricultural practices have led to significant soil erosion and a sharp decline in humate levels. Without these essential substances, soil loses its ability to retain water and nutrients, leading to poor plant growth and lower crop yields.

Humates, particularly in their soluble form, enhance the soil’s structure and fertility. They help bind nutrients and water to soil particles, making them readily available to plants when needed. This not only fosters stronger root development but also increases plants’ resistance to environmental stressors like drought and frost.

The TURPS Advantage: Optimal Humate Concentration

Unlike conventional humate fertilizers that are chemically derived from coal and leave behind residues, TURPS is produced from decomposed peat, chicken manure, and wood ash using a patented, waste-free process. This sustainable production method aligns with the principles of the circular economy, ensuring zero environmental impact.

The humate concentration in TURPS ranges from 8-12%, providing a rich, long-lasting source of organic matter for the soil. While some liquid fertilizers may boast higher immediate humate levels, they can’t match the durability and sustained release of humates in TURPS. Liquid fertilizers are often sprayed in small quantities over large areas, and their active ingredients degrade quickly. In contrast, TURPS’s humates remain active in the soil for extended periods, continuously improving soil health and fertility.

How TURPS Humates Work Their Magic

Keeps Nutrients Right Where Your Plants Need Them
Think of TURPS as a smart delivery system for your plants. It binds fertilizers to soil particles, holding onto those precious nutrients and releasing them only when your plants are ready to soak them up. This not only boosts nutrient efficiency but also means you’ll need up to 50% less fertilizer—saving you time, money, and effort.

Helps Your Soil Hold onto Water
If you’re battling dry spells or gardening in sandy soil, you’ll love this. The humates in TURPS create a thin, protective film around soil particles that locks in moisture. When your plants get thirsty, TURPS slowly releases that water, keeping roots hydrated for longer. It’s like giving your plants a built-in water reservoir, perfect for drought-prone areas.

Cleans Up the Soil for Healthier Crops
TURPS doesn’t just feed your plants—it protects them too. It binds harmful heavy metals into forms that plants can’t absorb, preventing toxins from sneaking into your crops. The result? Healthier, safer produce for you and your family.

Boosts Growth from the Ground Up
With TURPS, your plants won’t just grow—they’ll thrive. The humates in TURPS supercharge root development, helping plants flower and fruit faster. Farmers using TURPS have seen their yields jump by 20-40%, with fruits ripening a full 1-3 weeks earlier than usual. That’s more produce, quicker harvests, and healthier plants.

Creates a Thriving Underground Ecosystem
Healthy soil is alive, and TURPS helps keep it that way. The humates provide an essential energy source for beneficial soil microbes, encouraging a bustling, vibrant microbial community. These tiny organisms work hard to break down organic matter and recycle nutrients, keeping your soil fertile and your plants happy.

With TURPS, you’re not just adding a fertilizer—you’re nurturing an entire ecosystem beneath your feet.
