At BioAg our goal is to work with products the way mother nature intended us to. Our products are not denatured by heat, and to the extent that is possible, we use all natural methods for processing our materials including the collection of rainwater.
For our liquid fulvic we use a complex enzymatic process, or slow fermentation, using a culture developed by Dr. Faust in Hawaii. The technology is based on an updated method of a centuries old Chinese process developed in the Ming Dynasty and mimics the earth’s natural processes (who does it better?). This results in a true fulvic (not fulvate or salt of fulvic) which has not been compromised by acids, chemicals and preservatives. Each batch takes up to three months to brew and is then bottled in small, made-to-order quantities. BioAg fulvic is a true isolate that is stable in a liquid form for much longer than humic acid liquids (which tend to degrade on the shelf).
Please note, although it’s filtered through micron filters, it is naturally made and it’s best to keep it out of light and away from heat. If stored improperly, naturally occurring blue-green algae may form. If algae does form, it is not harmful and in truth is actually a sign of the products natural bio-availability, however this is not optimum.
Dry, SOLUBLE powders & low heat conversion
Our powdered products are made via a proprietary dry to dry conversion method, utilizing state of the art equipment, and little to no heat. This process was developed by Dr. Faust with the intent of saving the integrity of the product as typical drying processes utilize high heat which can denature it. Unlike liquefied Humic acid, in dry form it is also highly stable for long periods. The products, containing both humic and fulvic, are highly concentrated helping to reduce the cost and energy of shipping.
BioAg offers dry products in fine, small, or granular form for use in a variety of systems. They are easy to liquefy or spread dry, and because they are soluble, they are available for today’s crops (unlike raw humate).
Sources high in HUMIC & FULVIC
As an industry pioneer Dr. Faust has searched the world over for the best raw materials. The correct type is rare. Only very old fresh water sites, where ancient broad leaf tree and cycads were grown are used. Additionally, it’s important that this very old material has been protected and not cracked or weathered, so only specific areas of any formation are worthy.
Most black looking minerals are not humic acids, or humic acids of value anyway. Hundreds of organic chemicals are involved and it is far more complex than, simply fulvic or humic. There is much misinformation and confusion surrounding humic & fulvic substances. For best results, it’s important to work with suppliers/scientists and/or manufacturers who understand the complexities and can separate fact from fiction.
Our Products are based on research from reputable studies and complimented by alliances with scientists, agronomists, alternative practitioners, & suppliers world-wide.
