• Better retention and uptake of nutrients as well as an ability to absorb and release large amounts of moisture.
• Improved cell structural strength, reducing the incidence of lodging (weaken stems & roots)
• Improved resistance to pathogens and insect attack.
• Improved photosynthetic activity.
• Reduced drought and heat stress.
• Reduced salt stress by inhibiting sodium absorption.
• Improved utilization of applied fertilisers, particularly nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium.
• Alleviates toxicity of iron, manganese, cadmium, aluminium and zinc.
• Improves microbial activity.
• Improve soil texture.
