Harvesting Nature's Science™
This short (5:41) video provides a brief history of Huma Gro® and our product development.
Huma Gro® products are unique due to a proprietary complexing process that combines nutrients with very small organic particles that allow the nutrients to be absorbed into the plant at an efficiency rate far higher than other agricultural inputs. Huma Gro® offers products for every growing need. View the brochures:

In August, Florida strawberry growers will begin laying plastic for the next season. Planting starts in September/October and harvest extends from December to early April. After the strawberry season, growers are double-cropping with watermelon, bean crops, or vegetable crops.
In the following interview with Huma Gro® Regional Manager and Agronomist, Jason Garcia, we cover the Brilliance variety of strawberry and recommended nutrient applications.

Successful strawberry farming presents many unique challenges. As with every other type of crop, each farm will have its own challenges related to soil, soil tilth, soil pathogens, soil nutrient cycling, nutrient availability, plant vigor, irrigation needs, etc. Combined with those challenges are strawberry farming cultural practices related to continuous cropping and soil fumigation—with the resulting lack of crop diversity and soil microbial diversity that increases soil-borne diseases and tends to reduce yields over time. Strawberry farming continues to get more expensive while yields (and profits) are diminishing. What to do?

OMRI-Listed Huma Gro® Promax® is a soil-applied fungicide and nematicide used as a preventive and a curative agent. It is recommended for the control of many fungal diseases in the soil, as well as plant parasitic nematodes in a wide range of crops. Continue reading
Micro Carbon Technology® is a proprietary blend of extremely small organic carbon- and oxygen-rich molecules that act as a source of carbon and provide an ultra-efficient vehicle to move nutrients and other molecules into the plant through the soil and/or the leaves.
How does it work? Watch the video.
Huma Gro® products with Micro Carbon Technology® offer an unsurpassed level of application efficiency, allowing farmers to grow more with less fertilizer input. Growing more with less lowers input costs and maximizes return on investment. It also decreases the amount of N-P-K residues that can negatively impact the environment.

Los micronutrientes desempeñan un rol fundamental en el vigor de la planta, el rendimiento y la calidad de la cosecha. Sin embargo, a menudo se los pasa por alto cuando los productores desarrollan los programas de nutrientes. En este artículo proporcionamos información general sobre qué son los nutrientes, los roles que desempeñan, cómo se ve afectada la disponibilidad debido al suelo y otras condiciones, cómo reconocer las deficiencias y cuáles son los pasos más importantes al desarrollar un plan de micronutrientes para los cultivos.
