Sapropel – complex organic and mineral deposits (raw material), formed from the remains of plant and animal organisms.
This natural organic substance contains large amounts of macro- and microelements, vitamins, amino acids, and other biologically active compounds.
Sapropel is rich in microflora, especially beneficial bacteria, so it can be used as a probiotic for plants or soil, enhancing plant growth and increasing yield.
Sapropel has a positive effect on soil properties, such as moisture retention and air exchange.
Its use improves the structure of soil and substrates: heavy soils become more porous, while the humus content increases in light soils.
It is a long-term soil agrochemical improvement measure, effective for up to 5 years.
