An agricultural or horticultural fertilizer featuring processed montmorillonite clay and other ingredients for improving plant growth and health. The organic components of a basic, dry, composition of the fertilizer composition include Aloe vera, gum Arabic, and Montmorillonite clay. The fertilizer composition may be prepared and used as a dry blended powder, or the dry powder mixed with water to compose a liquid fertilizer blend. Agar may be added to compose a liquid mineral fertilizer root dip solution. Liquid fertilizers for use in drip irrigation may comprise potash in an aqueous blend, as well as citric acid and humate.

Compositions and method for producing a systemic acquired response (SAR) in plants. The resulting SAR may improve plant health and corresponding yields. In an example, the composition comprises a base solution and an effective amount of chitosan (Aspergillus niger) (e.g., in an amount of about 0.04 wt % of the composition). The base solution may include organic material, vitamin K compound, and nitrogen. Additionally or alternatively, the composition may include adding to the composition at least one of potassium, phosphorus, or an acidic organic polymer. Still further, the composition may include a micronutrient comprising at least one of boron, calcium, copper, iron, manganese, sulfur, silicon, or zinc. The composition may be applied as a foliar spray or used to irrigate the plant.

Agglomerated dispersible granules are disclosed including activated alumina particles and phosphate particles. The activated alumina particles have a porous structure and a plurality of electrically-charged binding sites disposed within the porous structure. The activated alumina particles and the phosphate particles are present in the agglomerated dispersible granules as distinct phases agglomerated together. A method for amending soil with buffered phosphorus is disclosed including physically blending and then agglomerating activated alumina particles with phosphate particles to form the agglomerated dispersible granules. The agglomerated dispersible granules are applied to soil with the activated alumina particles and the phosphate particles being present as distinct phases and the activated alumina particles being free of phosphate disposed within the porous structure. An activated alumina suspension is disclosed including activated alumina particles suspended as a dispersed phase in a continuous phase, the activated alumina particles having a particle size less than 200 μm.
