“…SNNM CEC also is related to the utilization of macro-nutrients, e.g., potassium [16,17], oligo-nutrients, e.g., zinc [18,19], and micro-nutrients, e.g., manganese [19]. The interaction between silicate and phosphates is involved in the beneficial effects of natural zeolites applied to soil on crop yield and soil phosphate leaching [20,21].…”

Siliceous natural nanomaterials (SNNMs), i.e., diatomaceous earth and natural zeolites, have a nanoporous structure with large active surfaces that adsorb cations or polarized molecules. Such nanoporous feature determines the effects related to SNNM utilization as low-risk plant protectants and soil improvers. This work used SNNMs from Romanian quarries as carriers for foliar fertilizers applied to stone-fruit trees, apricot and peach. We determined the effects of SNNMs on the physiology, yield and fruit quality of the treated stone-fruit trees. SNNM application determined impacts specific to the formation of particle films on leaves: reduced leaf temperature (up to 4.5 °C) and enhanced water use efficiency (up to 30%). Foliar fertilizers’ effects on yield are amplified by their application with SNNMs. Yield is increased up to 8.1% by the utilization of SNNMs with foliar fertilizers, compared to applying foliar fertilizer alone. Diatomaceous earth and natural zeolites promote the accumulation of polyphenols in apricot and peach fruits. The combined application of SNNMs and foliar fertilizer enhance the performance of peach and apricot trees.

“…The current methods of activating soil accumulated P mainly include phosphate solubilizing microorganisms, phosphatase enzyme, organic acids, biochar, zeolites, humic acids (HAs), lignin, and other materials. − Some activators have the advantages of a high activation effect and fast response speed such as phosphate solubilizing microorganisms and phosphatase enzyme; however, they are usually more expensive and highly specific . HA is increasingly used for activating soil phosphorus in agricultural production owing to HA itself being beneficial for the soil.…”

Humic acid (HA) has been widely used in agricultural production processes because it improves soil nutrients and has a growth-promoting effect on plants. Understanding the relationship between the structure and function of HA is the key to efficient utilization of HA in the field of activating soil legacy phosphorus (P) and promoting crop growth. In this work, HA was prepared using lignite as raw materials by the ball milling method. Moreover, a series of HAs with different molecular weights (<10, 10–50, and >50 kDa) were prepared through ultrafiltration membranes. The chemical composition and physical structure characteristics of the prepared HA were tested. The effects of HA with different molecular weights on activating accumulated P in calcareous soil and root promotion of Lactuca sativa were investigated. Results showed that HAs with different molecular weights have different functional group structures, molecular compositions, and micromorphologies, and the molecular weight of HA can significantly affect the activation performance on soil accumulated P. Moreover, the HA with low molecular weight more easily enhanced the seed germination and growth of Lactuca sativa than that of raw HA. It is expected that more efficient HA can be prepared in the future for the activation of accumulated P and promoting crop growth.
