We produce a range of Compound Humates and Fulvates to improve soil, plant, and ultimately human health
By improving soil health through enhanced microbe activity and carbon utilisation, we improve the quality of plants consumed by people. And improve human health as a result.
- Improved plant health and crop yields
- Better seed germination
- Increased root vitality
- Improved nutrient uptake
- Stimulates beneficial microbial activity
- Increased fertilizer uptake, lower leaching
- Increased chlorophyll synthesis
- Adds organic matter to deficient soil
Reduce and Reverse the impact of climate change globally
Promote soil health through regeneration and sustainability
Deliver effective and practical solutions to the agriculture industry
Our mission is to unlock a new paradigm in Agriculture designed to –
- Reduce and Reverse the impact of climate change
- Promote Soil Health through regeneration and
sustainability for human health - Deliver effective and practical solutions to the Agriculture industry
Our Product Range
Autus Gold
Autus Gold combines the best of two components – a fusion of Humates and Fulvates. Humates improve the soil’s water retention capacity, and nutrients are metabolised more efficiently. The Fulvate component accelerates and enhances the absorption of nutrients.
Autus Yellow
A liquid fulvic acid. Fulvic acid is a low molecular weight humate with unique properties. It forms soluble complexes with metal ions and can be taken up directly by plants even in an acidic environment.
Autus Black
A formulated humate-based soil conditioner and coating. Autus Black substantially increases the water and nutrient retention capacity of soil by enhancing the soil’s chelating and cation exchange properties.
FOR LARGE SCALE SUCCESS
The Autus Product Range of Humic and Fulvic Acids are available in a wide range that can accommodate agricultural operations at any scale.
Our established South African partners include...
What are biostimulants?
Biostimulants are substances or microorganisms applied to plants to enhance their growth, development, and overall health. Unlike fertilizers that provide essential nutrients, biostimulants work by improving the plant’s natural processes, making them more efficient in absorbing nutrients, managing stress, or developing stronger roots. They can stimulate a plant’s metabolism, enhance its resistance to environmental stressors like drought, heat, or salinity, and promote better yield and quality.
Did you know?
Any material applied with Fulvic acid will be absorbed more efficiently. Fulvic acid is found in humus, the organic matter created by plants and animals being decomposed by microorganisms. As a mineral courier, fulvic acid shows superior chelating action and acts as a promotor of efficient fertilizer absorption.
- Improves robustness of plants
- Carries iron up to 10 x its own weight
- Can be applied to soil
What are Humates?
Humates are the most chemically active compounds in soil and are the major component of soil organic matter. Humates are formed in nature through the humification of plant matter over a long period of time. There are 3 major components of humates: Humic Acid, Fulvic Acid, and Humin.
The presence of multiple functional groups is the key to quality for manufactured humates.
Autus Growth contains 6 different functional groups. The slow brewing design of the Autus production process is a key to building an activated humate product containing a good mix of these functional groups.
Global perspectives on humates in agriculture
Humates and human health
Here’s a closer look at how the use of humates in agriculture can benefit human health.
Organic Matter: The Fabric of Life
A cornerstone of our ecosystems, playing a crucial role in maintaining soil health, supporting plant growth, and sustaining diverse life forms.
What is the difference between humic acid and fulvic acid?
While they share similarities and both contribute to soil health and fertility, there are distinct differences between them in terms of their chemical composition, properties, and functions.
