BENTONITE FOR AGRICULTURE

Bentonite in agriculture is used as a feed additive, it contributes to the metabolic processes normalization, better absorption of nutrients, trace elements and vitamins, and stimulates livestock yield.

Bentonite has a high adsorption, catalytic, and ion-exchange activity. It adsorbs alkaloids, paints, heavy metals, toxins of microorganisms, nitrates and nitrites, and other harmful substances.

In addition, bentonite is widely used for:

manufacturing of bedding desiccants, designed to combat moisture, pathogens and ammonia. Bedding desiccants improve sanitary and hygienic conditions of newborn animals and workers.
land reclamation, as a carrier of plant nutrients. With the ability to retain moisture and nutrients, bentonite forms a favorable environment for plant nutrition in the rhizosphere.
seeds granulation. Seeds are added to a mixture of bentonite clay and water, which is formed into a ball by extrusion. After “granulation” clay balls with seeds are simply dispersed.

Bentonite for crop production

Bentonite products is directly added into the soil to:

Optimize air – water and nutrient regimes for the plants,
Sorb and neutralize heavy metals;
Prevent mold and fungal infection;
Increase resistance to adverse environmental factors;
Increase seed germinating ability;
Accelerate the maturation of agricultural crops, increase their productivity, improve the condition of products, reduce production costs;
With the optimal dosage, allows to increase the yield of spring barley, corn, grain, wheat by 15 – 30%.
