Basaltec is a natural basalt rock dust production company with over 15 years of research in validating the potential of this rock. Basalt establishes optimum soil conditions that could reduce the rate of loss of released nutrient element by leaching, and provide a readily available nutrient source for plants. Basalt igneous rocks contain a broad spectrum of up to 100 minerals and trace elements necessary for the well being of all life and the creation of fertile soils. Benefits: • Reduces soil acidity, similarly to the action of lime, but basalt does not chemically react to produce harmful CO2 • Rejuvenates the mineral and chemical properties of highly weathered soils • Improves the cation exchange capacity of the soil • Enhances the ability of soils to retain nutrient cation • Enhances the ability of soils to supply nutrient cation to plants • Reduces phosphorous fixation capacity, so that phosphates added in fertilizer are kept in soil solution and are more readily available for plant nutrition • Provide silicon for the uptake in plant cells, which is thought to result in improved plant vigor and quality • Provides slow, natural release of elements and trace minerals • Increases the nutrient intake of plants • Rebalances soil pH • Increases microbial and earthworm activity and improves biodiversity • Builds humus • Prevents soil erosion • Increases the storage capacity of the soil • Increases resistance to insects, disease, frost, and drought • Produces more nutrientious crops • Decreases dependence on fertilizers, pesticides, and herbicides • Boost plant growth • Dramatically increases crop yield • Improves disease resistance of crops • Extends shelf-life of crops • Improves flavor of edible crops • Improves nutritional value of crops • Benefits the soil and the environment • Improves fertility of the soil • Binds up pollution caused by chemical fertilizers For More Infromation Contact Us
