Humus — the "salt" of the soil. Humates, especially fulvates — are its most active component. Lignogumate — a complex preparation from plant lignin, with 100% solubility and non-residue, high (up to 90%) content of active substance, contains sulfur in organic form, and has up to 40% salts of active fulvic acids.
Provides moderate yield increases of 10 to 30% (depending on cultivation technology and agro-climate). Compatible with pesticides, fertilizers, and growth stimulators.
The mechanism of action of Lignogumate is simple — seed treatment accelerates root system growth and development by speeding up biochemical processes, while applications during vegetation activate the photosynthesis process, relieve stress from chemical pesticides, and increase fertilizer and pesticide efficiency.
High economic efficiency is ensured by the low cost of the preparation and small application rates per hectare. Costs for treating cereal seeds: 4 UAH/ha; for vegetation treatment — 13.5 UAH/ha.
It is recommended to conduct 2–3 applications during vegetation.
The preparation is used on all agricultural crops. Registered and available on the Ukrainian market for over 5 years, registered in the European Union (approved for use in organic farming in Germany), Canada, and many other countries.
Guaranteed shelf life — 5 years, at temperatures from -20 to 30 ºC (grades A and AM) and from -1 to 30ºC (grades B and BM). The preparation does not lose its properties upon freezing.
The application of Lignogumate is aimed at:
— increasing crop yields (10–25%);
— improving product quality (gluten content in wheat (+2–2.5%), sugar content in sugar beet, sugars, vitamin C in grapes, vegetables, and fruits);
— strengthening plant immunity;
— enhancing drought and frost resistance due to increased root system;
— improving the effectiveness of seed treatments combined with seed treatments (increased germination, immunity, suppression of pathogens);
— reducing stress from chemical pesticides and fertilizers, enhancing photosynthesis;
— improving efficiency of mineral fertilizers, pesticides, and growth stimulators due to Lignogumate’s adhesion properties;
— organic sulfur helps open membranes, and low-molecular-weight fulvic acids act as rapid transporters for nutrient penetration into plants.
— due to increased root mass and its absorptive capacity, as well as enhanced microbial activity, it is possible to reduce mineral fertilizer use by 10–20%.
Features of Lignogumate:
— 100% solubility, non-residue, no clogging of nozzles during spraying, suitable for drip irrigation;
— availability of dry and liquid formulations (A, AM, and BM);
— best raw material for humates — "plant" lignin, produced under modern conditions (absence of heavy metals, radioactivity);
— high active substance content (up to 90%), reducing application rates and transportation costs;
— contains 3% sulfur in organic form;
— adhesive properties (surfactants);
— high content of fulvic acid salts, which intensify nutrient exchange and uptake processes.
