Agricultural Bio-Stimulants
AGRICULTURAL BIO-STIMULANTS
• Agricultural bio-stimulants are
biological or biologically sourced
fertilizer-additives that are used in
crop production to enhance plant
nutrition, health, growth and
productivity
• These substances are applied to
plants or soils to improve crop
strength, yields, quality and
tolerance of abiotic stresses (like
rain, floods, hail storms etc.)
• Bio-stimulants support plant growth
and development throughout the
crop life cycle from seed
germination to plant maturity
WhyWHY BIO-STIMULANTS?
Bio-Stimulants?
• Agricultural bio-stimulants are biological or biologically sourced fertilizer-additives
that are used in crop production to enhance plant nutrition, health, growth and
productivity
• Crop bio-stimulation is complementary to crop nutrition and crop protection
Humic Substances
• Humic substances are the end product of decaying organic
matter NOT ALL BLACK OR
• Humic substances come from the accumulation and natural DARK BROWN
chemical reaction of by-products produced by the LIQUIDS/
biodegradation of organic matter SUSPENSIONS /
POWDERS ARE
• They are commonly present in soils, surface water, sewage,
HUMIC
compost heaps, marine and lake sediments, peat bogs,
carbonaceous shales, and lignites SUBSTANCES.
• There are three types of humic substances, which differ
slightly in acidity and chemical composition
• Humic acid
• Fulvic acid
• Humin
Benefits of Humic substances
Improves Germination Rates
Enhances nutrient uptake
Decreases water usage
Benefits of Humic substances
Harvested Earlier
(accelerated ripening)
Increases crop production
Improves nutrient content of
end product
Give your crop the right
nutrition and protection
Agri-Humic Concentrated Liquid
Formulation (6% Humic
• Agri-Humic contains: Substances):
For:
I. Humic Acid • Foliar application
II. Fulvic Acid • Drip irrigation
• Sprinkler irrigation
III. Humin
Humic Acid Fulvic Acid Humin
How is Agri-Humic different from similar
Market products
• Similar products available in the market
contains humic acid
• Agri-Humic offers a combination of Humic
acid, fulvic acid and humins
• For Agri-Humic, its raw material and the
decomposition process is controlled at
every step of manufacturing
• So that the percentage of Humic Acid
in the solution remains consistent
• Also, for every batch we test its bio-
effectiveness on the crop using in-house
testing methods in our lab

AGRI-HUMIC
Agri-Humic Advantages
• The extraction of Humic substances
is done using organic raw material
• It is a better way of producing
Humic substances
• The method used to extract Agri-
Humic contents is superior
compared to other products
available in the market
• This results in improved storage and
shelf life of the product
• It gives superior bio- effectiveness
to the product
Agri-Humic
What it is: What it is not:
• It is a true combination Humic • Not a stand-alone Humic acid
acid, Fulvic Acid & Humins from produced from lignite or peat
Renewable Agri Bio-mass • Does not contain insoluble
• Remains as a colloid in inert materials
suspension • Do not have very high
• Contains very high concentration molecular weight inactive
of small molecular weight humic colloids
• Remains bioactive for a long time • Does not degrade to
of storage biologically inactive molecules

SPREADER ACTIVATOR WETTER
Agricultural Wetting Agents
• Spreading and wetting agents help
to maximize the performance of
agricultural chemicals
• They do this by
– reducing spray droplets’ tendency
to bounce off of plant foliage
– by spreading these products to
greater leaf surfaces
• They are capable of reducing the
surface tension of water to that
allows rapid coverage and
penetration of cuticular waxes
Agri-82
• Highly concentrated non ionic
spray adjuvant with 82% active
ingredients
• Excellent Spreader, Activator and
Wetter
• Increases crop yield by improving
pesticide coverage
• It activates the spray fluid to
moisten the plant surface and
allows uniform spreading of spray
deposits
• Helpful tool in irrigation,
improves water absorption in soil
