Sodium Humate Powder

Water-Soluble Humic Ingredient for Biostimulant, Soil Nutrition & Fertilizer Formulations

Humic Acid ≥65% | 100% Water Soluble | Humic-Based Biostimulant Ingredient

Sodium Humate Powder is a concentrated, water-soluble humic ingredient designed for use in biostimulant, soil nutrition, fertilizer and specialty crop nutrition formulations.

Rich in humic substances, Sodium Humate provides multiple functional roles within agricultural formulations. It can be used as a humic-based biostimulant ingredient, a functional component in soil and root-zone nutrition products, and an organic complexing material in fertilizer and micronutrient systems.

Its humic structure contains multiple functional groups capable of interacting with nutrient and metal ions, while its water-soluble form provides flexibility for manufacturers developing soluble humic and fertilizer products.

Unlike defined synthetic chelating agents such as EDTA and DTPA, Sodium Humate is a complex humic material rather than a single molecular chelator. Nutrient complexation is therefore one part of its broader functionality—not its only role.

TerraNutrix supplies Sodium Humate Powder for biostimulant manufacturers, fertilizer formulators, soil nutrition companies and OEM/private label projects requiring a concentrated, water-soluble humic ingredient.

Why Sodium Humate?

Humic-Based Biostimulant Ingredient

Sodium Humate can serve as a functional humic ingredient in biostimulant and specialty crop nutrition formulations. It is particularly relevant to products designed for: Root-zone application; Soil application; Fertigation; Humic fertilizer programs; Specialty crop nutrition

Soil & Root-Zone Nutrition

Sodium Humate is widely used in humic-based soil and root-zone formulations where organic humic components are combined with conventional plant nutrition. It can be incorporated into products designed to complement soil fertility, nutrient management and root-zone nutrition programs.

Nutrient Interaction & Complexation

Humic substances contain carboxylic, phenolic and other functional groups capable of interacting with nutrient and metal ions. This allows Sodium Humate to be evaluated as an organic complexing component in formulations containing micronutrients and other fertilizer ingredients.

Fertilizer Functional Ingredient

Sodium Humate can be incorporated into formulations combining humic substances with: NPK; Secondary Nutrients; Micronutrients; Chelated Micronutrients; Amino Acids; Fulvic Acid; Other Compatible Biostimulant Ingredients

Water-Soluble Humic Source

The current TerraNutrix grade provides 100% water solubility, allowing formulators to use Sodium Humate in soluble humic and fertilizer manufacturing systems.

Sodium Humate vs Fulvic Acid

Property Sodium Humate Fulvic Acid
Material Type Humate / Humic-Based Material Fulvic Fraction of Humic Substances
Typical Appearance Black to Dark Brown Brown to Yellow-Brown
Molecular Character Generally Larger & More Complex Humic Structures Generally Smaller & More Mobile Humic Fractions
Typical pH Character Generally Alkaline Depends on Product Form & Manufacturing Process
Water Solubility High in Water-Soluble Grades Generally High
Metal Interaction Humic Complexation & Metal-Binding Organic Complexation & Metal-Binding
Soil-Focused Formulations Well Suited Suitable
Liquid Fertilizer Formulations Suitable with Compatibility Testing Often Well Suited
Micronutrient Formulations Can Be Used in Humic + Micronutrient Systems Can Be Used in Fulvic + Micronutrient Systems
Typical Formulation Role Humic Ingredient, Soil Nutrition & Organic Complexing Material Fulvic Ingredient, Nutrient Formulation & Organic Complexing Material
Best Fit Humic-Rich Fertilizer & Soil Nutrition Formulations Water-Soluble, Liquid & Micronutrient Formulations
Sodium humate and fulvic acid are different humic-based materials rather than direct substitutes. Selection should be based on the target formulation, pH, solubility requirements, nutrient system, application method and compatibility with other ingredients.
