Zeolite Granules Agriculture Grade - Color: White

GLOBAL EARTHS Agriculture-grade zeolite granules are a type of zeolite specifically designed for use in agriculture and horticulture. GLOBAL EARTHS Zeolites are crystalline aluminosilicate minerals with a porous structure, and their use in agriculture is based on their ability to adsorb and release various ions, improve soil structure, and enhance nutrient and water retention. Agriculture-grade zeolite granules can be used for several purposes in farming and gardening. Here are some common applications:

1. Soil Amendment: Zeolite granules can be added to soil to improve its structure and water retention capabilities. The porous structure of zeolites allows them to hold onto water and nutrients, making them available to plants over time.

2. Nutrient Retention: Zeolites have a high cation exchange capacity (CEC), meaning they can exchange cations (positively charged ions) with the surrounding soil. This helps in retaining essential nutrients such as potassium, calcium, and magnesium, making them available for plant uptake.

3. Amendment for Sandy Soils: In sandy soils, where water retention is often a challenge, zeolite granules can enhance water-holding capacity by trapping and holding moisture in the soil.

4. pH Regulation: Zeolites can help buffer soil pH by exchanging hydrogen ions. This can be particularly useful in soils that are too acidic or alkaline, contributing to a more favorable pH range for plant growth.

5. Odor and Moisture Control: In certain agricultural applications, such as livestock bedding and manure management, zeolite granules can be used to control odors and absorb excess moisture

   Fertilizer Efficiency: Zeolites can improve the efficiency of fertilizers by reducing nutrient leaching and making nutrients more available to plants. This can result in better nutrient utilization and potentially reduce the need for additional fertilizers.

   When using agriculture-grade zeolite granules, consider the following:

• Application Rates: Follow recommended application rates based on the type of soil and crops you are cultivating. Over application may lead to excessive nutrient retention.

• Soil Testing: Conduct soil tests to understand the nutrient levels and composition of your soil. This can help determine the appropriate use of zeolite as a soil amendment.

• Integration into Soil: Ensure thorough mixing and incorporation of zeolite granules into the soil for even distribution.

• Watering Practices: Adjust watering practices based on the water-retaining properties of zeolites to optimize plant growth.
