Edasil clay particles play a very important role in soil fertility. In this way, they can regulate the moisture in the soil very well. They also ensure that the essential trace elements, such as zinc, copper, and manganese, are bound and released when there is a shortage of these elements.
- Increases CEC of soils
- Improves water absorption
- Improves light and sandy soils
- Better nutrient uptake by crops
- Used in making Bokashi
Clay minerals together with micro-organisms, organic material, even grains of sand, form an indispensable soil substance, namely the “clay-humus complex”. The clay-humus complex provides, among other things, pH buffering, regulation of phosphate and sulphate, the exchange of nutrients for the plants, and even moisture, air, and heat management in the soil. Clay minerals have a pH7-8, contains 6-8% moisture, and can absorb up to 135% water.
