WHY BIO / ORGANIC
FERTILIZERS ?

Environmental pollution increasing

UAS’s Mission and Vision
What We Do:
Product Development:
 Products
are developed as
problems are determined.
 Products are developed as
demanded.
 Products are developed to
compliment our programs.
 Our
mission is to protect
and preserve the
environment
 Provide the tools for
growing quality foods for
future generations
 Save the environment.by
using less teaching the
farmer how to use less
fertilizer.
How we do It:
 We
go back to the
basic principles of
agriculture

Organic Agriculture
Organic agriculture and organic
markets is growing by 25% annually.
– International Federation of Organic Agriculture
Movement (IFOAM)
The largest UK organic trader expects
today’s $11B organic market to grow to
a volume of $100B in the next 10 years
with a major share of this growth taking
place in the USA and Japan.
--IFOAM
Natural
Products
“Today organic food is a booming
$3.5 billion
industry growing at an average
rate of 20% annually”
Sustainable Agriculture
Sustainable techniques helped maintain
overall profits due to savings on fertilizers
and pesticides of $95.00 or more an acre
and yield increases worth $600 an acre.
– Union of Concerned
Scientists
– USDA, 1995 SARE Project Highlights
Organic production is in increasing trend
all over the world…
About 17,500 (millions US $ ) organic food is sold
Our philosophy to New age approach is
Simple as 1…2…3
1 Cleanse Soil

2 Infuse soil with
Beneficial Bacteria
3 Apply Supplemental
Micro and Macro
Nutritional Applications
Super Hume helps cleanse soil
biology to virgin state.
•
Nitro-Fix Helps bring necessary
Microbial actions back to proper
levels.
•
Supply the plant with necessary
booster feedings to help add quality,
yield and size.
Result is reflected 1-2 weeks after the application
How and where do We Start?
STEP 1
We Start with the Soil
STEP 1 Starts with in the SOIL
We Cleanse the Soil Using Super Hume
We Condition the Soil Using SSP
We Adjust pH using Super Sul 26 or Super Cal 8
Why we do this?
Just like when we build a house. A successful crop needs a
Solid foundation.
THE SOIL MUST BE ABLE TO SUSTAIN LIFE!
Soil Physical Structure
Air Voids, Water, and Organic Matter
25% Air
45% Minerals
25% Water
5% Organic matter
Super Hume actions on soil
Detoxifies Soil
Soil looks like “black Gold”
Rich in Organic Matter.
Super Hume
How does it works?

One of the highest quality “Liquid Humic
Acid” concentrates in USA.

Organic Carbon derived from the highest
and the most active quality Humate
source, Leonardite

Capable of retaining soil nutrients in an
exchangeable form to be made available
to plants as required

Help to control the toxic chemical levels
within the soil.

It is acceptable by OMRI, OCIA &
FOG as "organic"
Super Hume (Humic Acid)
* Will help to increase the CEC of the soil.
* Increases the holding capacity or retention ability of the soil for holding water.
* Increases the transfer of fertilizer, by preventing excessive leaching away from the
root zone and ultimately releasing it to the root zone as needed.
* Helps to reduce soil erosion by increasing cohesive forces of very fine soil
particles.
* Changes the physical and mechanical properties of the soil in structure, color, consistency, and
moisture holding capacity to a very great degree.
* will increase the permeability of plant membranes , promotes the uptake of
nutrients more efficiently.
* improves the growth of various groups of beneficial micro-organisms.
* buffer pH problems, allowing plants to survive until the pH can be corrected.
* Increases the rate of germination of seed.
* decrease stress deterioration. Until it can be corrected.
* increase and enlarge root systems and plant cell division
* Will increase microbial soil activity.
* will help to intensify the Enzyme systems increasing the metabolic and/or other chemical changes inside
the plants living cells.
* will releases various types of auxins responsible for plant growth.
* known as an organic catalyst helping to speed up the rate of chemical reactions within the plant.
* will provide an environment that will not allow some weeds to grow.
Humic vs Fulvic
The higher molecular weight Humic Acid alters the physical characteristics of the
soil, while the lower molecular weight Fulvic Acids are involved in the chemical
reactions in the soil that influence plants’ metabolic processes. Fulvic acids also
possess growth promoting properties.
Both Humic and Fulvic acid are in the same family and serve the same purpose.
Their Chemical composition has almost no difference.
Both Humic and Fulvic acid are extracted from LEANARDITE. Mined in the Dakotas
It is often stated that the "primary action" of humic acids comes from the fulvic acids
because their chemical and biological activity is higher than the humic acids.
Fulvic acid extracted from Leonardite is more soluble and mobile through the water in
the soil.
Simply stated Fulvic acid is a more active Humic acid

Phytophthora in Citrus:
Phytophthora diseases often termed as, damping-off of seedlings in the
seedbed, root and crown rot in nurseries, foot rot and fibrous root rot, and
brown rot of fruit in groves are major problems in citrus industry in United
States (US). Not only in US but also represents one of the biggest threats to
citrus production around the world.
Different species of Phytophthora reported in citrus.
P. parasitica,)
P. citrophthora,
P. nicotianae,
P.palmivora)
Symptoms in
CITRUS
Root rot / Crown rot: (Caused by Phytophthora citrophthora, P. nicotianae,)
Root rot is near the ground level
Crown root results from infection of the bark below the soil line
Root rot produces bark lesions
Root rot extends down to the bud union on resistant rootstocks
Root rot occurs when the cortex of fibrous roots is infected
Roots turns soft and appears water-soaked.
Foliage turns yellow as the disease progresses the,
Permanent dieback of twigs occurs
Weak new growth
Cankers are formed on the larger roots.
Symptoms in
CITRUS
Brown rot of fruit: (Caused by P. citrophthora, P.hibernalis and P.
nicotianae var.parasitica
Starts as a slight surface discoloration and extends rapidly
Eventually the entire rind turns light to olive brown
Infected fruit has a strong and quite distinctive smell
Fruit remains firm with a leathery texture
A white fungal growth often develops on the fruit surface and
the common blue mould may follow
Fruit usually falls from the tree
Leaf infections appear as dark brown, roughly circular, spreading blotches
Dark brown lesions and often exude gum are produced on twigs.
How is it works?
UAS results
Potassium Phosphonate act as an *Elicitor* imparting immune system (SAR-systemic acquired
resistance). Also act as fungistat against pathogen like Phytophthora, Fusarium and pythium like
fungus.

activators.
Research has shown the plant can assimilate Micronutrients better via foliar application than if the
Micronutrients where applied to the soil. The response is quicker and seems to be more effective.
Humic and Fulvic acids affect the plants and soil and activate DNA and RNA. This activity has a positive
growth regulating effect on the cell of plants and microorganisms.
DNA is the nucleic acid found in the nucleus of cells
RNA is the nucleic acid found in the cytoplasm of cells
Nucleic acid is necessary in the protein manufacture.
Micro-Hume is a Humic/Fulvic acids combined with Micro-Elements. This combination acts as a catalyst
helping to speed up the rate of chemical reactions within plant cells.
Micro-Hume will help activate enzymes and intensify the metabolism of proteins having a positive
growth regulating effect on plants.
