| The
Soil Fertility Challenge |
Managing
the fertility of agricultural soils is a common challenge
facing growers throughout the world. In many areas, intensive
farming practices have reduced once rich and productive
agricultural land into soil with poor physical structure
and nutritional deficiencies. Low fertility levels in
depleted soils have limited potential for productive and
quality crops, yet the causes of such problems are often
difficult to diagnose and overcome.
Nurturing
healthy soil requires the maintenance of a fine equilibrium
between economics, agricultural management practices
and the soil's physical, biological and chemical characteristics.
Today's successful growers achieve this balance by using
naturally balanced soil additives such as ASL Kelp Meal Fertilizer.

How
ASL Kelp Meal Fertilizer Works as a Soil Amendment
|
|
The
organic matter and soil conditioning properties in
ASL Kelp Meal Fertilizer are important to the
fertility and productivity of agricultural soils.
Organic matter in the soil, and associated soil microflora,
bacteria and fungi, play an important role in soil
fertility and plant nutrient uptake.
ASL
Kelp Meal Fertilizer acts as a soil conditioner by stimulating
microbial activity, a process often compromised by
modern agricultural practices. The minerals released
and humus colloids formed during the decomposition
of ASL Kelp Meal Fertilizer, result in the aggregation
of soil particles and the retention of nutrients which
might otherwise be leached from the soil.

Good
soil structure provides improved aeration, water holding
capacity and soil fertility, and makes soils less prone
to erosion and erosive forces.
