Application Guide
AZOMITE® For Plants AZOMITE® should be applied with compost, humus, manures, or other fertilizers to provide additional levels of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. AZOMITE® WILL NOT BURN PLANTS.
Field Crops: Generally, apply 500 lbs initially followed by an annual maintenance level of 200 lbs per acre. Titration studies report more AZOMITE® is better. While not justified for most field crops, certain high value crops may warrant initial application up to 2 tons per acre.
Vegetables and Flowers: When preparing the soil, use AZOMITE® at the rate of 1 lb per 10 sq ft. If in rows, mix with the seed or starter plant and apply at the rate of 1 lb per 25 ft of row. If bed is established, sprinkle around each plant.
Citrus and Other Trees: Soil pH should be 6.5 or lower. Apply annually to all trees on ground surface under the drip line at the rate of 1 to 5 pounds, depending on the tree size. Double the application for decline or blight stricken trees.
Grapes, Roses and Shrubs Apply 1/2 lb. to 1 lb. to the soil around each plant and lightly till into soil.
Lawns: For new lawns, rake in 1 lb per 10 sq ft of seed bed. For established lawns, broadcast 1 lb per 30 sq ft before watering.
House Plants: Mix 1 teaspoon per 2 inch pot diameter with potting soil before planting. Give 1 teaspoon quarterly thereafter.
AZOMITE® for Livestock Dairy, Beef, Swine, Sheep, Horses, and Poultry including broilers, layers and turkeys.
For livestock on a prepared feed diet, we generally recommend adding AZOMITE® at 1/2% (10 pounds per ton) of the total feed mix. A maximum of 2% (40 pounds per ton) may be added in accordance with good feed manufacturing or feeding practices. We recommend adding 2-4 ounces of AZOMITE® to the daily rations of horses and dairy cows.
Note: Shrimp grown in Thailand adding AZOMITE® at 1% showed a significant increase in weight gain
Approved for Organic Applications AZOMITE® is listed by the Organic Materials Review Institute (OMRI) for use in organic production, and it is approved in the U.S. National Organic Program under sections 205.203(d) for plants, and 205.237(a) for livestock, and Halal approved by IFANCA.
Safe A series of research studies have been completed which serve to confirm that AZOMITE® is safe. Although there are a few natural contaminates, they all fall safely within the guidelines established by the American Feed Control Officials and Fertilizer guidelines.
