  1. Fulvic acid The key to facilitating plant metabolic activities

  2. Formation of Fulvic acids Fertilisers Plant Vegetation Decomposition Humus Carbon 68 % Oxygen 22 % Hydrogen 6 % slow Fulvic Acids Carbon 43 % Oxygen 50 % Hydrogen 5 % HumicAcids Carbon 52 % Oxygen 40 % Hydrogen 5 % slow

  3. Lignin Tannin Pigments Protein Chitin Carbohydrate Lipid Formation of Fulvic and Humic acids Dead Organisms & Wastes, etc. Decomposition Nutrient Cycling HUMUS : Decomposed organic matter Chemical, Biochemical, Pressure, Age, Oxidation, Reduction High Pressure and Low Oxygen favours Condensation = Humate production Low Pressure and High Oxygen favours Decomposion = Fulvate production Humification HUMIC ACID FULVIC ACID

  6. Complexity & Size of Fulvic Acids and other molecules Structure Humic Acid Fulvic Acid Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) Calcium Nitrate Amino Acid (Aspartic Acid) Zinc (Zn) Molecular Weight 5,000 to 50,000 300-600 175 164 133 65 CH2COOH Ca (NO3)2 HOOCCH2CHCOOH NH3 Decreasing Complexity Zn++ QSAGR227 V1

  8. Benefits of Fulvic acid 1. Fulvic acid is nature’s life restorer – the electrolyte theory Fulvic acid is a natural organic electrolyte. Balance, activate and energize biological properties of organic materials. Prevents cell disintegration and death.. By restoring its normal chemical balance and electrical potential. Talk to us. It pays. Web: www.omnia.com.au

  9. 2. Promotes electrochemical balance –donor or receptor Electrochemical balance is required for health in any organic system. Fulvic acid helps in fulfiling the requirement for balance. During oxidation – species loses electrons as donors. During reduction – species gains electrons as acceptors. Fulvic acid actively involves in donor-acceptor charge transfer mechanisms. Fulvic Acids Talk to us. It pays. Web: www.omnia.com.au

  10. 3. Fulvic acid dissolves minerals and trace elements Fulvic acid dissolves minerals and metals when in solution with water. Metallic minerals dissolve into the Fulvic structure. Then they becomes bio-chemically reactive and mobile. It transforms these minerals and metals into Fulvic acid complex structure. It has also the ability to weather and dissolve silica into assimilable form in soil Zn Fe Mn Cu + Fulvic acid Fulvic acid dissolves metals Talk to us. It pays. Web: www.omnia.com.au

  11. 4. Fulvic acid enhances nutrient availability and assimilation Fulvic acid enhances availability of nutrients and makes them readily absorbable. This is because of the fulvic acid electrolyte chelation. It facilitates inter-nutrient interaction and breaks them down to simplest ionic forms. The metalic organic complexes have small molcular size and can easily penetrate cells. . Nutrients in Cytoplasm Metalic ions with Fulvic acid Cell Membrane Fulvic acid helps transport nutrients through cell wall and sensitize cell membranes Talk to us. It pays. Web: www.omnia.com.au

  12. 5. Fulvic acid catalyzes enzyme reactions. With Fulvic acid Fulvic acid increases the activity of several enzymes like transaminase and invertase. Talk to us. It pays. Web: www.omnia.com.au

  13. Transminase enzymes are important in the production of various amino acids. Building blocks of cells Proteins Amino Acids More living cells means higher growth rate (Yield and quality). Talk to us. It pays.

  14. Invertase is a digestive enzyme Invertase Monosaccharides Monosaccharides tend to be absorbed and become available as an energy source more quickly Talk to us. It pays.

  15. 6. Fulvic acid stimulates metabolism It causes the genetic mechanism of plants to function at a higher level and improve growth. Oxygen is absorbed more intensely It changes the pattern of metabolism of carbohydrates A higher osmotic pressure is created inside the cell wall because of this Also stimulates the immune system Hence increases the vital activity of cells This results in accumulation of soluble sugars Which enable plants to withstand wilting Healthy plants Talk to us. It pays. Web: www.omnia.com.au

  16. 7. Fulvic acid detoxifies pollutants Fulvic acid helps the formation of new species of metallic ions. These binds with pesticides to catalyze breakdown of toxic pollutants. Talk to us. It pays. Web: www.omnia.com.au

  17. 8. Fulvic acid increases metabolism of proteins Fulvic acid intensifies metabolism of RNA and DNA. Fulvic acid increases DNA content in cells. This will positively impact cell size and disease resistance Talk to us. It pays. Web: www.omnia.com.au

  18. 9. Fulvic acid catalyzes vitamins within the cell Fulvic acid has the ability to introduce vitamins into its structure. And presented to the cell with complex mineral structures. In this condition, the vitamins can be catalyzed and utilized by the cell. Talk to us. It pays. Web: www.omnia.com.au

  19. 10. Fulvic acid chelates Mon, Di & Trivalent elements Fulvic acid has the power to form stable water soluble complex structures. With mono-valent, divalent, trivalent and polyvalent metal ions. Helps the movement of metal ions that are normally difficult to mobilize. Mono/ Di/Trivalent Elements Mono/Di/Trivalent metals Fulvic acid molecules Talk to us. It pays. Web: www.omnia.com.au

  20. 11. Fulvic acid as spray adjuvant Fulvic acid can be used as spray adjuvant. Especially with herbicides to increase efficiency (absorption). At the same time, prevents adverse effect of herbicides on Soil micro flora and fauna. As well as potential downstream pollution. Talk to us. It pays. Web: www.omnia.com.au

  21. Differences between Fulvic and Humic acids

  22. K-FULVATE 10% - Omnia’s Fulvate product. Type Liquid foliar product for improved uptake Content 10% fulvate (~2% K) Application Mixed in nutrient tanks and applied with nutrients. Can be used for foliar or fertigation Rates 3-5 L/ha @ 0.5% of mix Purpose Improve nutrient uptake, reduce burn, improve tank mix compatibility Features Easily handled liquid, soft chelate, Benefits Improves nutrient uptake from leaves giving faster responses and reducing leaf burn from high concentration mixes. Most useful for low volume sprays and field application (drench) where soil benefits also apply. Improves soil health while improving nutrient availability in drench and fertigation applications Target Markets Field Crops (Cotton, Potato, Cassava, Cane) Vegetables Low volume spray applications (Cereals)
