Proposed Benefits of Sea Minerals
-
Raised brix and plant health. Brix,
or the solids in the sap, is made up
not only of sugar, but also of
minerals. It has been proven that
the higher the brix, the
healthier the plant, the more
resistant to sickness and disease,
and the more nutritious it will be.
The trace minerals in
Ocean Trace
help to raise the brix, not just in
sugar content but in trace mineral
content of the sap, resulting in a
healthier plant.
-
Flavor. A higher brix means more
flavor. However, when sea minerals
are a part of the brix, it makes
such a difference in flavor. This
is one of the greatest testimonials
we receive. People just can’t
believe how good their food tastes
when they use Ocean Trace.
-
Nutrition. The higher brix, along
with the trace mineral component of
the brix, translates into greater
nutrition. Not only does the trace
mineral content of the plant
skyrocket, but the vitamin content
also increases substantially. In Montana
we did a 2 year study using Ocean
Trace on wheat. The results for the
2 years were similar. The vitamin
content of wheat grown with Ocean
Trace was 11% to 34% greater,
depending on which vitamin was
tested. Ocean Trace is a wonderful
product for increasing the nutrition
of our foods.
-
Shelf life. Because of the
increased brix rich with trace
minerals, our customers report that
produce grown with Ocean Trace has a
shelf life 2 or 3 times as long as
the same crop grown without it.
This can be huge. Who likes eating
wilted, rotten food?
-
Animal health. Dr. Maynard Murray
did significant research with Ocean
Minerals. He documented his
findings, which have been published
in the book, "Sea
Energy Agriculture, Nature's
Ideal Trace Element Blend for Farm,
Livestock, Humans”. In his many
laboratory tests, animals that ate
food grown on land that was rich in
sea minerals were injected with
carcinogens to produce cancers, fed
a diet that should result in
hypertension, etc., etc. Incredibly
enough, the animals that were fed a
diet grown with sea minerals didn’t
get the cancer, the hypertension,
etc., while the animals whose diet
didn't include foods grown with sea
minerals did. These same health
benefits will surely be experienced
by humans as well. Sea Minerals
really are a key to increased
health.
-
Better yields. Plants grown with
Concentrated Sea Minerals generally
yield better, if the plant has
adequate moisture. This increase in
yields is generally anywhere from
10% to 17%, depending on the crop,
the growing environment, and
application rates.
-
Less insect pressure. Many farmers
have reported that when they used
Ocean Trace, their insect problems
disappeared. For sure,
Ocean Trace
is NOT a pesticide. One reason for
less insect pressure is that the
potassium in Ocean Trace is a
nutrient greatly needed by the
plant. But it is also because the
crop now has the perfect balance of
micronutrients found in the Ocean.
By helping to balance these
micro-nutrients, plants become so
much healthier. Sapping insects
target sick plants. A sick plant,
especially one without the proper
cat ion exchange, will emit an
infra-red signal that says to
sapping insects, “dinner time”. But
according to Tainio Technologies,
when the hydrogen makeup of the
plant is in balance with the cat
ions, the insect no longer
identifies the plant as food.
-
Sea Minerals help to establish a
good balance of micro-nutrients.
This is very important. Trace
minerals work together. One trace
mineral is necessary for a plant to
pick up others. So if a farmer just
gives his crops a specific trace
minerals, many times it will not be
very available to the plant, because
it doesn’t have other trace minerals
needed to utilize it. Therefore
when a farmer loads his crops with
Zinc, if it isn’t part of a balanced
trace mineral application, his crop
might not be able to utilize the
zinc. What does the farmer do
then? He just keeps putting on more
zinc, hoping that his crops will get
enough. The result is a zinc
toxicity in the soil. Not a pretty
thing. So having a balanced
micronutrient program is so very
helpful to both plants and soil.
-
The law of the minimum. There are
many trace minerals that are needed
only in small amounts by the plant,
but if the plant doesn’t have them,
the plant will suffer. Ocean Trace
supplies all 76 of the naturally
occurring minerals on the Periodic
Chart of Elements, and in a perfect
ratio. It has been stated that both
sap and blood plasma have almost the
exact same ratios of trace minerals
as ocean water. So when we apply a
fertilizer which naturally has this
perfect balance, it can be very
beneficial. While
it is true that most of these 76
minerals have not been acknowledged
by the USDA as being needed by
plants, every few years enough
evidence is gathered to suggest that
another of these minerals should be
added to their list of "beneficial
minerals". By giving a plant the
full buffet of minerals found in the
ocean, it is allowed to utilize the
minerals it needs.
-
Less fungus. A replicated study was
done with the University
of Georgia on the effects of Ocean
Trace on 2 fungus types, including
white mold. This study demonstrated
that peanuts had less fungus (and
greater yields) than peanuts not fed
with Ocean Trace. Ocean Trace is
not a fungicide. Decreased fungus
can only be linked to better plant
health.
-
Ability to promote photosynthesis.
Ocean Trace is a good source of
Magnesium. It is the magnesium that
within days can turn leaves to a
darker shade of green. We have
numerous testimonials to this. The
more photosynthesis, the more food
the plant is able to manufacture,
which can translate into greater
yields.
-
Greater soil health. When the
beneficial microbes in the soil
thrive, the soil becomes healthier,
and plants in turn become healthier.
These microbes need trace minerals,
and thrive when they are present.
One of our dealers uses Ocean Trace
in his product designed to increase
the number of microbes in the soil.
He said that before adding Ocean
Trace to his product, he could not
achieve his goal of 1 billion
microbes per square inch. But by
adding Ocean Trace, he said he is
now able to meet that goal.
AG-USA now sells MycorrPlus for
soil and plant fertility. It contains
both Ocean Trace and Soil Balance, a
product designed to restore balance to
the soil.
MycorrPlus is like Ocean Trace on
steroids! We sell it instead of Ocean
Trace for soil and plant fertility
needs.
