Other claims from this paper (3)
- Intervention effect Application of some biocontrol agents negated the deleterious effects of humic acid on cotton seedlings.
- Recommendation Using humic acid is not desirable where the soil is infested with Fusarium oxysporum.
- Recommendation If humic acid must be used, it should be accompanied by a suitable biocontrol agent.
