The A to Z Of Minerals Including Trace Elements, AZOMITE is a unique naturally mined mineral product from a volcanic deposit in Central Utah. This ultra-fine, odorless powder contains a broad spectrum of minerals and trace elements that support metabolic activity to enhance root growth, increase crop yield and improve soil health.
A hydrated sodium calcium aluminosilicate ground rock with other essential trace elements.
100% natural volcanic rock ground to a fine powder.
It can be used as a feed supplement in poultry and used as a fertilizer.
Feed Grade: It's said to improve immune system function in poultry, thus lessening the need for antibiotics. 2% of ration or less.
In plants, it is said to help produce larger root systems, bigger plants, more trace minerals in the produce itself and blight avoidance and/or reversal.
Ag Grade: Application rate is 1-2 lbs./10 ft2 or 1-600lbs./acre
Label - Feed Ingredient
Hydrated Sodium Calcium Aluminosilicate - Anticaking Agent - In compliance with CFR 582.2729, to be used as an animal feed ingredient at a level not exceeding 2% of the feed mixture in accordance with good feed mixing and manufacturing practices.
Azomite is a simple to use, natural mined mineral product. It requires no mixing or special equipment. it is odorless and won't restrict aeration or water penetration. Unlike some products, Azomite is not a manufactured, chemically prepared fertilizer. It is 100% natural with no additives or fillers.
Azomite trace mineral fertilizer is a complex of naturally occurring minerals which contains essential elements (micro-nutrients) for plant growth. Fertilization with Azomite adds some of the required mineral balance for the growth of common soil flora and fauna vital to overall productivity. Continuous plant propagation and the leaching effects of water may deplete essential minerals and micro-nutrients from soils. Azomite can improve soils that have been depleted of these important minerals and micronutrients. It can also supplement soil that are inherently deficient of these vital mineral concentrations.
Azomite is a natural source of trace elements for both animals and the soil. It is a hydrated sodium calcium aluminosilicate derived from a natural volcanic mineral deposit. Azomite is added to compost or other fertilizer material and spread at the rate of 300 to 600 pounds per acre and either lightly disked into the soil surface of applied in the row when planting. For gardens, spread ¼ to 2 pounds per 10 ft2 and spade into the soil. Use 1 teaspoon or 1 cup in watering can quarterly for house plants. In feed rations, 1-2 percent (do not exceed 2 percent) of the feed mixture and mix thoroughly with feed.
AZOMITE® For Plants
AZOMITE® should be applied with compost, humus, manures, or other fertilizers to provide additional levels of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. AZOMITE® will not burn plants.
Field Crops: Generally, apply 500 lbs initially followed by an annual maintenance level of 200 lbs per acre. Titration studies report more AZOMITE® is better. While not justified for most field crops, certain high value crops may warrant initial application up to 2 tons per acre.
Vegetables and Flowers: When preparing the soil, use AZOMITE® at the rate of 1 lb per 10 sq ft. If in rows, mix with the seed or starter plant and apply at the rate of 1 lb per 25 ft of row. If bed is established, sprinkle around each plant.
Citrus and Other Trees: Soil pH should be 6.5 or lower. Apply annually to all trees on ground surface under the drip line at the rate of 1 to 5 pounds, depending on the tree size. Double the application for decline or blight stricken trees.
Grapes, Roses and Shrubs: Apply 1/2 lb. to 1 lb. to the soil around each plant and lightly till into soil.
Lawns: For new lawns, rake in 1 lb per 10 sq ft of seed bed. For established lawns, broadcast 1 lb per 30 sq ft before watering.
House Plants: Mix 1 teaspoon per 1 inch pot diameter with potting soil before planting. Give 1 teaspoon quarterly thereafter.
