What is humus 3?

Published in Soil Science 2 mins read

The question "What is humus 3?" is unclear as the provided reference describes humus as a single substance, and not different types or a numbered variety of humus. To best answer this, we can interpret the question in a couple of ways, and address each separately. The question can be considered:

  1. A misunderstanding of the term humus, and what the user actually wants to know is what humus is in relation to its function or characteristic?
  2. "Humus 3" is a specific term not explained in the provided reference.

Humus Explained Based on the Provided Reference

Based on the provided reference, humus is not a numbered entity and refers to a single substance.

It's defined as:

A substance created from dead leaves and plants, which, when added to the soil, helps plants grow. It's basically partially decayed organic matter.

Function of Humus

  • Makes soil porous, which increases the soil's ability to hold both air and water.
  • It is a great source of plant nutrients such as minerals.

If "Humus 3" is a Specific Term

If "Humus 3" refers to a specific type or classification of humus not covered in the reference materials, then I am unable to provide an answer with the information given.

The reference only explains the general term "humus," so I cannot identify any 'Humus 3' based on the document. Further information or context would be needed for this.
