How Humic and Fulvic Acids Support Soil Microbes (and Handle Heavy Metals)

In this episode of our Soil Health Series, Ryan Gibbs from Singular Agronomics breaks down the role of humic and fulvic acids in supporting your soil microbes—and handling common issues like high salt and heavy metals.

What Are Humic and Fulvic Acids?
Humic and fulvic acids start as raw humate—a natural organic material—before being processed into a liquid form. They serve different functions due to their molecular size:

Humic acid: Larger molecule, dark in color, known for improving soil structure and bonding with salts and metals.

Fulvic acid: Smaller molecule, more mobile, known for enhancing nutrient uptake in plants.

Why Do They Matter?
Ryan breaks it down into two main benefits:

1. Soil Microbe Support
Humic acid helps aerate the soil, improving microbial habitat.

It also binds with excess salts and metals (like aluminum or iron) that might be harming biology or restricting nutrient availability.

2. Improved Nutrient Efficiency
Fulvic acid plays a critical role in transporting nutrients into the plant, especially when used in-furrow or in foliar applications.

This makes it an excellent tool when combined with liquid fertility programs, especially under irrigation with high-iron water.

Real-World Application
Ryan uses these acids in different ways depending on soil and crop needs:

To bind salts in saline soils

To neutralize high iron in irrigation water

To address heavy metal toxicity like excess aluminum

To boost nutrient delivery in both soil and foliar programs

Whether you're managing tough soil conditions or just want to improve nutrient use efficiency, humic and fulvic acids offer flexible, affordable tools to boost soil health and crop resilience.
