Could crude home made or even store bought Chitosan be considered to be an organic soil additive or amendment.
To make (as far as im aware) you boil you shrimp/crab/lobster/crayfish/grasshopper waste in caustic soda solution (for quite a long time) wash the caustic solution off and dissolve the remaining shell waste in (cider) vinegar. Then dialute 1-200/500 and use as a pre germ seed treatment, foliar spray, soil drench.
