Hi Everyone,

Welcome to Episode Five of the "How to Do It" Series Two, where we’ll explore one of my favorite topics—“Understanding Humates.”

Humates have long been a cornerstone of my approach to regenerative agriculture. These remarkable compounds, born from ancient plant material transformed over millennia, are a gift to modern farming. They deliver a wide range of benefits, including improved nutrient uptake, soil structure, and enhanced plant resilience. Understanding how to harness their potential can be a game-changer for any grower.

In this episode, we will explore the science behind humates and why they’re such a vital tool in sustainable farming. We’ll discuss how quality humic and fulvic acids can be identified from inferior products, chelation, how they can be used to improve fertiliser uptake, improve water-holding capacity, decontaminate soils, boost biology and much more. 

Nutrition Farming covers a range of practical ways to incorporate humates, from applying granular humic acid for long-term soil improvement, liquid humic and fulvic acid to enhance fertigation and foliar nutrition, or DIY concoctions that can save you money, there’s a solution for every farming challenge.

By the end of this video, I hope you’ll feel empowered to integrate humates into your nutrition farming toolkit. These natural allies can transform both your soil and your results, paving the way for healthier crops and a more sustainable future.

Happy Nutrition Farming!

Warm regards,

Graeme Sait
