Difference Between Potassium Fulvic Acid and Mineral Source Potassium Fulvic Acid
Oct 31, 2023
From the source, it can be seen that mineral derived humic acid is formed by the transformation of animal and plant residues (lignite, weathered coal, peat) through soil microorganisms over tens of millions of years. Biochemical fulvic acid is produced by concentrating and spray drying the waste water from molasses or yeast production. Such fulvic acid is easy to absorb moisture and has a taste of sugar.
From the perspective of composition: The main components of biochemical potassium fulvic acid are polysaccharides, lignin, and proteins, with few functional groups. The mineral source potassium fulvic acid is rich in various functional groups such as hydroxyl, phenolic, and carboxyl groups, with high utilization efficiency.
From a functional perspective, potassium fulvic acid from mineral sources can regulate soil acidity and alkalinity due to its functional group function. It is also a natural chelating agent that chelates with metal ions, reducing nutrient loss or solidification, and promoting direct absorption by plants; It can promote the formation of soluble nutrients from insoluble inorganic minerals (phosphorus and potassium) in the soil, which are directly absorbed and utilized by plants. Biochemical fulvic acid also has the effect of adjusting acid, improving soil, and stimulating root growth, but its persistence is not strong and its effect is weak.
