ROOT DISALT

Reclaim Saline Soils. Restore Their Productivity.

ROOT DISALT is a powerful soil salinity (EC) reducer. Soil salinity is one of the major constraints to agricultural production, as it interferes with the plant’s uptake of water and essential nutrients. When soil salinity is accompanied by sodicity, the problem becomes even more severe. Sodium causes soil dispersion and structural degradation, leading not only to drought stress and reduced nutrient uptake, but also to serious problems with root-zone aeration.

ROOT DISALT is a powerful formulation designed to reduce soil salinity and replace exchangeable sodium in the soil. It helps reclaim saline soils through three unique mechanisms, creating a more fertile and productive growing environment for crops:

1. Calcium Replacement: The high level of soluble calcium in DISALT replaces sodium on the surface of soil colloids. This helps prevent soil dispersion while improving soil structure, porosity, aeration, and water-holding capacity.
2. Sodium Removal: The sodium released from soil colloids reacts with specific anions present in DISALT to form highly soluble compounds that can be readily leached out of the soil and removed from the rhizosphere.
3. Enhanced Soil Fertility: The organic and fulvic acids contained in the formulation, due to their numerous functional groups, significantly increase the soil’s Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC) and substantially improve soil fertility.

Application of ROOT DISALT promotes root development, enabling plants to access and absorb more nutrients with lower energy expenditure.

Special Characteristics:

• Simultaneous remediation of saline and sodic soils
• Enhanced soil fertility through the presence of organic acids and fulvic acid
• Unique three-stage mechanism for salinity and sodium removal
