Lutum47’s exceptional anionic charge can enhance the soil’s ability to retain essential cations such as calcium, magnesium, potassium and ammonium. It can also help to prevent nutrient leaching, especially in sandy soils, by retaining nutrients in the root zone where plants can access them.
Lutum47 has a myriad of elements that compose its biomineral matrix. For instance, it contains potassium, calcium, iron, phosphorus, magnesium, humic acid, carotenoids, illite, albite, apatite and chlorite. This unique combination of minerals and organic compounds works synergically to help plant growth, accelerate germination, regulate soil pH and enhance soil structure.
In the last few years, lanthanides have been recognized as an underestimated ally in crop development. They are very potently effective, giving them unique beneficial properties.
Lutum47 contains an array of lanthanides which act as catalysts in different cellular and enzymatic processes. It can promote arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) growth, help to increase chlorophyll concentrations, help to decrease water loss in plants, help with early germination, and help to increase the rate of nitrogen transition from inorganic to organic.
Farmers aiming to maximize their harvest while maintaining soil health need to consider adding Lutum47-based products to their regimen. We provide fertilizers formulators and soil conditioning specialists with this never-seen-before natural ingredient, promising to offer new ways to enrich their product lines.
With its mineral composition including phosphorus, illite and albite, Lutum47 enhances soil aggregation, thereby promoting better aeration, water infiltration, and root growth.
Lutum47’s high anion exchange capacity and its composition rich in elements such as phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and iron oxide ensure the retention and gradual release of nutrients and organic matter, promoting plant growth. These nutrients support physiological processes such as enzyme activation, photosynthesis and cell formation.
Due to its anionic charge, Lutum47 stabilizes soil pH, promotes nutrient absorption, and enhances microbial activity. Additionally, its calcium, sodium, aluminum and magnesium oxides work to reduce soil acidity.
Fine particles and various clay minerals such as illite, albite and chlorite can retain water molecules through processes of adsorption and absorption. This improves water retention, reduces irrigation needs, and enhances drought resistance, which are essential for sustained plant growth and improved resilience.
The glyphosate adsorption potential of Lutum47 has been demonstrated under experimental conditions.
Lanthanides and other elements present in Lutum47 act as catalysts in cellular enzymatic processes, which could potentially accelerate the biochemical reactions necessary for early germination.
When mixed with an organic substrate, Lutum47 can act as a potentiator enhancing the nutrient availability for plants, potentially leading to better growth and yield.
Lutum47 can be mixed with compost or other organic materials to create a balanced organic fertilizer that enhances soil fertility and structure.
Lutum47 can be used as a soil conditioner to improve soil texture, drainage and aeration, particularly in clay-heavy or sandy soils.
Lutum47 can be applied to contaminated soils to neutralize toxins such as glyphosate and heavy metals, and to improve soil health.
Lutum47’s hyperflexible composition profile allows development of specific formulations tailored to the nutrient needs of particular crops or growing conditions.
Lutum47 can be incorporated into soil or hydrogel products designed to improve water retention and reduce irrigation needs.
When sprayed on plants, Lutum47 forms a protective mineral barrier that helps prevent the development of various diseases, thanks to its bactericidal properties. This barrier also acts as a deterrent to certain insect pests, providing an added layer of defense.
We operate on precious land, aiming not only to protect it, but also to enhance it. Since 2007, we proudly bear the seal of the UNESCO Manicouagan – Uapishka Biosphere Reserve for our exemplary environmentally friendly business practices.
