Productivity and Protection in Agriculture

Natural Solution

As Eri Maden, we offer natural minerals used to improve soil structure and increase productivity in agricultural production. Sepiolite, zeolite, bentonite and kaolin contribute to the sustainable use of agricultural lands with their soil conditioning properties.

 

Sepiolite

High Water Retention and Aeration Ability
Sepiolite stands out as a soil conditioner with its lightweight and porous structure.

Benefits

  • It retains water for longer in arid regions, allowing water to stay in the soil for an extended period.

  • Its porous structure promotes soil aeration and supports root development.

  • It helps balance salt content in the soil, contributing to healthier plant growth.

Granule vs. Powder

Granule Sepiolite: Provides a longer-lasting effect and aids in the slow release of water.
Powdered Sepiolite: Mixes more quickly, especially effective in small areas like potted plants.

 

Zeolite: A Natural Ion Exchanger

Zeolite creates a balance in the soil with its chemical composition.

Benefits

  • It absorbs excess ammonia and heavy metals in the soil, reducing toxic effects.

  • It increases the cation exchange capacity of the soil, enhancing fertilizer effectiveness.

  • Provides a slow-release nutrient source for plants.

Granule vs. Powder

Granule Zeolite: Offers long-term effects with controlled release.
Powdered Zeolite: Quickly integrates into the soil and shows short-term effects.

Bentonite: A Natural Solution Strengthening the Physical Structure of the Soil

Bentonite regulates the soil with its high swelling capacity and clay structure.

Benefits

  • It helps retain water in the soil, improving yield in arid areas.

  • It binds soil particles together, preventing erosion.

  • It balances soil pH, regulating acidic soils.

Granule vs. Powder

Granule Bentonite: Provides controlled moisture release and long-term protection against erosion.
Powdered Bentonite: Works quickly as a soil conditioner, especially suited for small areas.

 

Kaolin: Supporting Soil Structure and Plant Health

Kaolin is used for soil conditioning and plant protection due to its fine structure.

Benefits

  • Reduces compaction on the soil surface, allowing roots to grow more easily.

  • When applied to plant leaves, it reflects sunlight, protecting plants from heat stress.

  • It helps regulate soil moisture and promotes more active microorganisms.

Granule vs. Powder

  • Granule Kaolin: Used for long-term soil improvement.

  • Powdered Kaolin: Effective for leaf applications and areas that require quick results.

 

General Benefits of Soil Conditioning Minerals

  • Increases Efficiency: Enhances water retention and nutrient balance in the soil.

  • Prevents Erosion: Strengthens soil structure, increasing resilience to natural disasters.

  • Maintains pH Balance: Regulates the acidic or basic nature of the soil.

  • Supports Microbial Activity: Boosts the activity of beneficial microorganisms in the soil.
