A lot of regions have favorable natural conditions (warmth, moisture) to develop agricultural activities, but they do not have suitable soil for it.

The peat moss products are the most attractive solution to deal with this problem due to its ability to interact with any type of soil, conditioning it to a perfect growing.

Peat moss binds sandy soil so that water and nutrients stay at root level where they are needed and as well increases the water retention capacity.

Peat bogs are located in Eastern European countries, such as Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and etc., and this is where all main resources are collected to justify the quality of LILOPEAT brand, widely distributed to many countries worldwide, such as Middle East region, North and South Africa countries, Mediterranean region and etc.

GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS

Based on the extraction layer, the peat moss can be allocated to one of three main categories:

Category of the product	The depth of extraction	Acidity pH (H2O)	Organic substance (%)	Bulk density (g/l)	Moisture (%)
White (light) peat	Is extracted from upper layer of deposit	3,5 - 4,5	> 97	160 - 200	45 - 55
Brown peat	Is extracted from middle layer of deposit	4,2 - 4,7	> 94	200 - 240	45 - 55
Black peat	Is extracted from bottom layer of deposit	4,5 - 5,0	> 90	240 - 280	45 - 55

All categories of the natural peat can be neutralized by reduction of acidity (pH 5,5-6,5). Neutralized high moor peat soil of well-balanced acidity in which there is no pathogens, plant pests, weed seeds is used as a supplement of mulching about stems of fruit trees, decorative trees and shrubs and for improvement upper layer of soil of plant seedlings.

00 - 05 / 00 - 10

Fine fractions are used mostly for decorative floriculture, home gradening. Also these fractions are used for prepa- ration of different types substrates.

05 - 10 / 00 - 20

Medium fractions are used in industrial gardening, landscaping projects, etc. Also these fractions are used for preparation of different types of substrates.

10 - 20 / 20 - 40

Large-scale fractions are used for cultivation of big plants, industrial gardening. Also these fractions are used as a bedding for animals.
