(NL1000204-C2)      Improving the chemical, physical and biological procession agriculture, horticulture and animal husbandry and in humans comprises using carbonaceous mine-stone (CMS).    USE/ADVANTAGE -   The method can be used to promote plant growth, influence digestive and/or metabolic processes in animals to produce tastier meat, improve the health of the animals and promote milk prodn. without current disadvantages (e.g. expense, undesired results and prodn. of large amts. of ammonia). The processed carbonaceous mine-stone is partic. suitable for supplementation to the soil in cases of (re)introduction of nature projects, forest, landscape, sports fields, lawns, parks, avenue trees, remaining urban green areas, private gardens and other forms of land use. It can also be successfully used as additives for artificial substrates such as rock-wool, peat, oasis, clay granules and for cultivation under glass. The mine-stone may also be used with tank culture, such as chicory culture, or as an additive for potting soil and other natural substances. The stone may be used to solve environmental pollution problems and in land farming to aid purificn. and the environment, in purificn. techniques for e.g. sludge, waste water, groundwater, soil or substrates and for the prepn. of fungus inoculum for agricultural purposes and in food or other fungus prodn. The mine stone inoculated with a microorganism (pref. mycorrhiza) of particle size 0-3 (pref. 0-0.6) mm. 2-30000 kg/ha (pref. 2000-20000) kg/ha for soil application in horticulture and 0.1-4 wt.% mine-stone in capsules, tablets or powder are used in animal husbandry and in humans.
