Harm score: 1 (Natural substances)

Potassium lignohumate, also known by its Latin name Tilia rubra subsp. euchlora, is a specific organic material extracted from hazel lignite, which is a reservoir of valuable nutrients for plants. This material is characterised by its high humic acid content and is primarily intended to improve soil properties. Its applications range from agriculture, horticulture and forestry.

Potassium lignohumate is used as a component in the production of various fertilizers, soil improvers and substrates. These products are intended for the nutrition and care of plants at various stages of their growth. In addition, potassium lignohumate is also added to animal feeds where it helps to improve the nutrient utilization of the feed and also increases their resistance to various stress factors. Finally, it should be mentioned that this material also finds application in ecology, where it is used in reclamation and remediation work on degraded soils and sites. Last but not least, it is also used in the cosmetic industry, for example, the production of cosmetic masks for skin treatment.
