Abstract:
The advantage of rock dust is seen in the fact that it is a natural mineral raw material and carrier of numerous minerals and trace elements with long term effects. The nutrients are released slowly and gently during the process of natural weathering in the forest ecosystem (without fertilization shock). In the following we report the latest results of the experiments in the forest of Arenberg-Schleiden.
