Sodium (Na) is an element essential to all life. SEA-90 provides all essential minerals and trace elements in addition to the sodium. Much of our agricultural soils, especially in the Midwest and east of the Mississippi River, have significant sodium deficiencies due to the fact that sodium is water soluble and readily leaches from the soil. In addition organic farms are especially deficient having operated for many years without salt based chemical fertilizers. Soil specialists and consultants world-wide are now recommending applications of SEA-90 in small amounts (50-100 lbs per acre) to combat sodium deficiencies.
SeaAgri encourages its customers to consult a soil la and conduct soil tests to assure the presence of sodium is adequate for good plant growth and development (two to three percent).
Another positive aspect of SEA-90 is that it stimulates micro-organism populations in the soil. SeaAgri found that when SEA-90 is used as recommended, the soil microbes feast on the minerals and trace elements and their populations expand thereby improving the soil’s biology.
