Yes, potassium humate is organic and suitable for use in organic farming. It is derived from natural sources such as leonardite, a type of oxidized lignite rich in humic substances. Potassium humate acts as a soil conditioner and natural fertilizer, enhancing soil structure, microbial activity, and nutrient availability without the use of synthetic chemicals. Its organic nature aligns with the principles of organic agriculture, which emphasize sustainability and environmental stewardship. Before using potassium humate in certified organic operations, it’s advisable to verify that the specific product is approved by relevant organic certification bodies in your region, as certification requirements may vary.
