Reacted Carbon Technology™ (RCT)
Background
Reacted Carbon Technology™ (RCT) is a platform that encompasses a wide range of complex carbon mixtures that have been precisely designed for specific performance and agronomic benefits.
Derived from leonardite, our organic matter is a complex mixture of molecules ranging in size, composition, and chemical functionality . Every product in the RCT line has a different extraction and reaction process and was developed for certain elements, nutrients, and effects on soils and crops.
Reacted Carbon Technology is a trademark of Actagro LLC and Nutrien Ag Solutions.
The bigger picture
RCT is comprised of unique complex carbon mixtures, which are designed to deliver optimal agronomic benefits. RCT increases product efficiency through a dynamic formulation process, which can be tailored for specific nutrients.
BENEFITS
Reacted Carbon Technology™ (RCT) offers 8 unique crop benefits:
- Increases root mass due to increased nutrient uptake
- Decreases the amount of root burn from fertilizer salts
- Increases drought tolerance by increasing the water holding capacity and potassium availability
- Increases the Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC) in that application zone
- Supports microbial activity by providing a food source and a place for those microbes to live
- Buffers salts that are in the soil solution
- Buffers the negative effects of soil pH
- Positively impacts Nutrient Use Efficiency
