Brief Project Summary:

C-Cat Carbon Catalyst is a humic acid product sold by AgSource LLC which has been reported by University of Arkansas researchers to enhance cotton yields. Humic acids are commonly used as a soil supplement in agriculture. The company reports that farmers who applied C-Cat to soybeans also obtained yield increases. This project will test the product and report on the results found.
