Humus acids are presented by three fractions of humic acids and four fractions of fulvic acids.
Many substances act as precursors of these compounds: humic acids have been widely studied for this reason (Li & Sun, 2001; Singer, 1999).
The amount of humic acids is significantly smaller, while about 60-70% of them are bound with alkaline earths (Table 1).
