Abstract
Humic acids are defined as heterogenic natural resources that have colours changing from yellow to black,high molecular weight and resistance to decay. They can be found, in varying concentrations in such sources as turf, peat-bogs, animal fertilizers, lignites and leonardites. Humic acids have an essential role in agricultural processes. Increasing cation exchange capacity (CEC) and enhancig soil fertility, they promote the mineral nutrients into forms available to plants. Humic acids help to retain water-soluble inorganic fertilizers in the soil, releasing them as needed for the growing plants. In particular, humic substances decrease the negative effects of chemical fertilizers.
