The Institute of Nature Management offers consumers the humate-containing fertilizer with microelements "TESORO" to provide plant growing with effective liquid humate-containing fertilizers, including basic nutritional elements, microelements and biologically active additives - regulators of plant growth of humic nature under manufacturing agreement and/or a license agreement and is looking for partners interested in a distribution services agreement.

Currently, there is a tendency to use liquid mineral fertilizers in global agricultural practice. Interest in the production and use of such fertilizers, both in foreign and domestic practice, is very high. Many countries have developed a wide range of liquid concentrates and fertilizers containing essential plant nutrients, microelements and biologically active additives.

It is intended for use in growing winter and spring grain crops, winter and spring rapeseed, corn, sugar beets, fiber flax, tomatoes and cucumbers in protected and open ground, green crops.

Humate-containing fertilizer "Tesoro" is approved for use in the Republic of Belarus in the agro-industrial complex and for retail sale to the population.

According to the Ministry of Agriculture and Food of the Republic of Belarus in 2019-2020, agricultural crops were grown in our country on an area of ​​about 5.9 million hectares, including grain and leguminous crops - 2.45 million hectares; corn for grain - 122 thousand hectares, rapeseed - 400 thousand hectares, sugar beet - 96 thousand hectares, potatoes - 268 thousand hectares; vegetable crops - 62 thousand hectares.

The consumption of "Tesoro" when used in crop production for foliar treatment of vegetative plants is 4-9 kg/ha per season. Based on the sown areas and consumption indicators, the total need for liquid humate-containing fertilizers only for use on main crops is 20-40 thousand tons per year, which indicates great prospects for expanding the production and use of such fertilizers.

Information is posted in  Album of promising developments of the NAS of Belarus organizations for the real sector of the economy (2023), p. 197-198. (in Russian)

Currently, liquid humate-containing fertilizers are produced in small quantities in the Republic of Belarus. The main biologically active component of "Tesoro" is humic acids, the mass fraction of which is at least 30 g/l. The fertilizer is enriched with nitrogen - 150-160 g/l, potassium - 15-16 g/l and microelements: boron - 1.28 g/l, iodine - 0.19 g/l and molybdenum - 0.13 g/l.

The combined use of humic preparations and mineral fertilizers contributes to more efficient absorption of potassium and nitrogen, which is due to their ability to bind nutrients and microelements by the ionic mechanism.

Along with the main nutrients, the liquid fertilizer contains microelements and a biologically active plant growth regulator of humic nature. The high efficiency of foliar treatments of plants is due to the fact that the solution is easily absorbed by the plant directly, through the surface of the green mass, acts quickly and in the required phase of development, which helps to avoid significant losses of fertilizers in the soil.

The use of "Tesoro" allows for strict differentiation of plant nutrition in different phases of vegetation, having a positive effect on their growth and development and contributing to an increase in the yield of agricultural crops and an improvement in the quality of plant products. At the same time, the entire complex of substances necessary for plant growth is introduced in one go, which helps to reduce the economic costs of cultivating agricultural crops.

"Tesoro" belongs to the substances of the 4th hazard class, i.e. it is classified as a low-hazard compound.

The basis of the humate-containing fertilizer "Tesoro" is the products of oxidative destruction of peat.

The technology of fertilizer production consists of obtaining a plant growth regulator by chemical processing of peat at elevated temperature and pressure, followed by the introduction of the main nutritional elements and microelements into the humic preparation.

The Institute of Nature Management is one of the oldest institutes of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus, carrying out research in the field of Earth sciences. The activities of the Institute are aimed at solving the problems of rational nature management and environmental protection together with international organizations.

The Institute carries out research in the following areas:
- development of scientific bases of nature management and environmental protection;
- assessment, forecasting and optimization of anthropogenic impacts on natural complexes;
- scientific justification for the creation of resource-saving technologies for the extraction, processing and use of solid fossil fuels;
- study of the formation conditions and assessment of the state of fresh drinking and mineral waters;
- study of the geodynamics of the earth's crust and modern geological processes on the territory of Belarus;
- geoecological substantiation of the design and placement of especially critical structures and environmentally hazardous facilities (nuclear power plants, hydroelectric power plants, underground gas storage facilities, high-toxic waste disposal sites, etc.);
- diagnostics of the state of the natural environment based on the use of modern aerospace, ground, telecommunications and information-measuring tools;
- study of the global and regional climate and its changes under the influence of natural and anthropogenic factors; forecasting climate change and its consequences.

The Institute participates in the scientific support of 6 international conventions:
- Convention on Long-range Transboundary Air Pollution;
- Ramsar Convention on Wetlands;
- UN Framework Convention on Climate Change;
- Stockholm Convention on POPs;
- UN Convention to Combat Desertification/Land Degradation;
- Convention on Biological Diversity.

The Institute has scientific contacts with organizations in Russia, Ukraine, Poland, China, the Baltic countries, Armenia, Vietnam.
