humin
Humin is a chemical substance that is an amorphous, insoluble component in soil and other naturally occurring organic materials, formed from the decomposition of plant and animal matter. It is considered a complex class of high-molecular-weight organic compounds that resist degradation and have structures that are not yet fully understood. It is responsible for the dark color in soil or compost and is generally less bioavailable and useful to plants compared to other soil humus substances like humic or fulvic acid.
