Zeolite

Zeolite, used in crop production, is a non-caking, non-combustible, loose, hygroscopic, a non-toxic material, and a natural absorbent which is actively involved in ion exchange processes. Due to its rich chemical composition and unique porous structure, it copes with the role of mineral fertilizer and soil amendment.
Use of sapropel in crop science
Zeolites have two valuable properties: the ability to absorb and give water and the ability to ion exchange (exchange cations and re-absorb various substances).

It is threaded with the thinnest cavities and channels, giving it properties of a molecular sieve. These voids are filled with cations of alkaline/alkaline earth metals and water molecules with significant freedom of movement, which gives zeolite a high ion exchange capacity.

During zeolite application, the roots of plants in the soil are protected from external temperature changes, so they develop more evenly. Due to the increased water capacity, water losses from drainage and evaporation are reduced and the introduced fertilizer solutions are not washed out. Hence, the amount of watering and fertilizing is reduced and the risk of root rotting from excessive watering or water stagnation is prevented.

Zeolite contains potassium, calcium, magnesium, borium, zinc, manganese, molybdenum, and silicon in the form, available to the plant.

The use of zeolites in agriculture, vegetable growing, and horticulture has great prospects.

Zeolite increases not only the amount, but also the quality of the crop. With application of this mineral, the amino acid composition in vegetables and fruits increases, as well as the amount of vitamin C. Moreover, the level of total sugar and dry matters, the amount of nitrate nitrogen, and the acidity decreases.

The properties of the zeolite are similar to the properties of vermiculite, which is more popular and more expensive.
The use of zeolite
Enhances the lightness, looseness, porosity, and air permeability of the soil.
The benefits of using zeolite for soil
Prevents from clumping, caking, and crust formation of the soil surface.
Accumulates and binds moisture, microelements, and fertilizers in the soil and gives them to plants when it is necessary.
Absorbs the excess nitrate salts of heavy metals from the soil and neutralizes them.
Prevents the development of fungi, mold, and root rot.
Stimulates the development of the root system.
Accelerates the growth and development.
Increases immunity of plants.
Nourishes plants throughout their life.
Increases the guaranteed crop yield.
Improves the quality of the final product.
