Humic DG™
Humic DG™ granules contain 70% humic acid and 10% humic acid precursor. DG technology creates a dust-free, spherical, ultra-dry particle that rapidly disperses into thousands of microparticles upon contact with moisture.
The increased surface area of Humic DG™ granules creates greater availability to the plant. It performs in various conditions and soil types, independent of application method, and features dual carbon sources unique to The Andersons’ granular humic products. Humic DG™ contains the full spectrum of humic substances: fulvic acid, humic acid, and humin, as well as humic acid precursor.
Composition:
- 70% Humic Acid, 10% Humic Acid precursor
The Power of Humic DG™
Benefits:
- 4X more efficient than screened humate
- Enhances nitrogen and phosphorus efficiency
- Promotes good soil structure and increases water-holding capacity
- Enhances root system development
- Easy to handle and spread through all types of application equipment
- Flexible application allows for use as a stand-alone product or in blends with granular fertilizers
- Economical application cost per acre compared to liquid and screened humates
Dispersing Granule Technology:
- The Andersons Dispersing Granule (DG) technology creates spherical, dust-free, and ultra-dry particles. These granules rapidly disperse upon contact with soil moisture, creating tens of thousands of microparticles, which greatly increases surface area and allows for faster breakdown and availability of the applied substances.
- DG granules can be spread evenly and consistently through all types of application equipment. Other granular competitor products are dusty, non-uniform, can contain up to 20% moisture, making them hard to handle and difficult to spread.
- DG granules are designed to be ultra-dry, which allows for successful blending with all types of dry fertilizers, including urea.
Application Details
Directions for Use:
Apply as directed or as advised by your representative or local agronomist. Some situations will require higher use rates and/or more frequent applications to produce significant benefits.
For best results, after application, water area with a minimum of 0.3 inches of water. Product will self-incorporate into coarse textured soils. Cold weather and/or
cold water (lower than 45ºF / 7ºC) can result in slower particle dispersion.
Humic DG can be applied to all crops, including vegetable crops, row crops, herbs and field crops; trees; shrubs; vines; turf; ornamentals; nursery; xeriscaping; garden landscaping and potting soils.
CROPS (BROADCAST):
Apply at 40 pounds per acre or higher as a broadcast treatment, one to two times annually. Best when applied in fall, post-harvest or early spring. May be used at pre-plant up to first blossom or anytime fertilizer is applied. For severely carbon depleted soils, apply 40-500 pounds per acre.
CROPS (IN-FURROW/BANDED):
Apply 4 -10 pounds per acre in-furrow or as a banded treatment.
Recommended Application Rate:
Humic DG application rates are dependent upon soil and climate conditions.
The typical application rates for corn applications are:
- In-furrow (strip-till or air drill with fertilizer): 4-10 lbs Humic DG/acre
- 2x2 with urea: 4-10 lbs Humic DG/acre
- Sidedress: 45-90 lbs of urea with 10-20 lbs Humic DG/acre
- Broadcast with urea or ammonium sulfate: 10-20 lbs Humic DG/acre
