What sets Menefee Humate apart?
1. The Source. Humics vary widely in quality. Our products originate from northwest New Mexico, the world's premium source for freshwater humates. All of our products are derived from the same premium reserve, leading to consistently high quality. Our products are free of harmful salts and toxins, and they consistently test high in humic and fulvic acids.
2. Consistent particle size. Menefee Humate® goes through a multiple-screened process. The finished product is uniform in particle size, which is easy to blend and apply.
What particle sizes are available?
Menefee Humate goes through a multiple-screening process to reduce dust and ensure consistent sizing. It is available in three particle sizes. MH300 is most commonly used in agriculture, with a particle size ranging from 2-3 mm. We also offer MH150 (particle size ranging from 1-2 mm) and Menefee Humate fines.
What are the packaging sizes?
Menefee Humate is available in 50 lb bags (one ton minimum) and one ton super sacks. Truckload quantities are available in 50 lb bags, one ton super sacks, and in bulk loads.
What’s the recommended application rate?
We recommend that Menefee Humate is applied at a rate of 50-200 lbs/acre.
Application rates may vary due to factors such as soil type, crop type, application method, and economics. For instance, if Menefee Humate is being banded into the soil, we’d recommend a lower rate than if it’s being broadcast. For heavily polluted soils that require remediation, we recommend an even higher application rate—often between 200 - 400 pounds per acre. If you’d like an estimated application rate based on your soil’s specific conditions, feel free to get in touch.
How often should it be applied, and when?
We recommend applying Menefee Humate 1-2 times per year. In agriculture, it’s most often applied at pre-plant, post-harvest, and pre-bloom.
Menefee Humate is a slow-release product that breaks down in the soil over time. Its benefits typically last between 6-9 months, depending on conditions. For annual crops, Menefee Humate is often applied pre-plant. For perennial crops, it’s often applied post-harvest to revitalize the soil and reinvigorate plants. Pre-bloom is also a popular application period, when plants are preparing to expend energy and are intaking significant nutrients from the soil.
