BACKGROUND: Humic acid is a natural polymeric composition which is produced as a result of decaying organic matters in soil, peat and lignin to increase crop product. OBJECTIVES: Assessment the effect of different irrigation regime and humic acid on red bean production and correlation coefficient between measured traits. METHODS: Cu...

organic compounds including seaweed extract were applied in organic production system and sustainable agriculture. one of these compounds is humic acid that was used widely in research and commercial programs. humic acid is an organic acid obtained from humus and other natural resources with hormonal effects and improving nutrient absorption, increasing root and shoot biomass. in order to inves...

the effect of compost and humic acid in mobility and concentration of cadmium and chromium in contaminated soil were investigated. experiment was carried out with three levels of soil cadmium and chromium and two organic matters (compost and humic acid). the study was performed in a randomized complete block design with 3 replicates. results indicated that application of organic substances enha...

to study the effect of foliar application of humic acid on morpho-physiological traits, nutrients uptake and postharvest vase life of cut marigold, an experiment was conducted with five levels of humic acid (0, 250, 500, 750 and 1000 ppm) based on completely randomized design with three replications. based on the results, in compared with control, leaf number and leaf area, total phenol and aer...

effect of foliar spraying by humic acid on mineral leaf composition, yield and fruit quality of apple (malus domestica l. cv. ‘granny smith’) was studied. an experiment based on randomized complete design was conducted in khorramdare city of zanjan province. spraying of humic acid was conducted in four levels 0, 5, 10 and 15 mg/l on eight year-old ‘granny smith’ apples grafted on mm106 rootstoc...

Humic substances are routinely applied to creeping bentgrass putting greens during times of stress to improve turf health. Confounding effects of added nutrients and other ingredients make it difficult to separate the effects caused by the organic material from additional effects of the supplemental ingredients. Claims made in advertising and marketing of the effectiveness of humic substance pr...

photocatalytic membranes exhibit great potential for water treatment since they combine the filtration and photo degradation in a single unit. although blending photocatalytic nanoparticles into polymeric thin film remains the simplest method to prepare the photocatalytic membrane, the entrapped photocatalyst showed less catalytic activity due to the agglomeration and shielding effects in the p...
