摘要: Phosphatic clays, and the use of phosphatic clays as a soil wetting agent. agents aid in retention water sandy soil, and/or for prevention or reduction leaching nutrients. Due to its unique particle size shape, clay exhibits high absorbing retaining qualities. Further, is readily available by-product mining ore. The increases effectiveness applied thereby reducing amount run off, needed accomplish sufficient irrigation. can be delivered sprinkle-on product, spray-on amendment, fertilizer seed coating, composition.
