Thiago's Peer Review

Lead This article contains a strong lead sentence and underscores the gravity of agrominerals. Concerning the two lead paragraphs, I would suggest including one sentence to introduce the history of agrominerals and the demineralization process which is discussed throughout the rest of the article. Minor edits: (1) add "and" to the first sentence when mentioned plant nutrients; (2) adjust wording from "used replenished to" to "used to replenish" in the 3rd-to-last sentence of the first paragraph; (3) consider removing the penultimate sentence of the first paragraph- I do not understand what it is saying and it does not seem to add to the introduction significantly; (4) add "-ing" ending to weather in the second sentence of the second paragraph; (5) remove ", which means it would be" in the last sentence of the second paragraph.

Structure I very much enjoyed reading through the two added sections and was impressed by the significant additions! However, I think that you can reorganize the "Remineralization" section to include a more coherent order with less text- why was the information presented in the order it was (potash -> remineralization -> rock powder)? Further, I would like to better understand why remineralization was highlighted over other processes related to agrominerals. It may be interesting to expand on the composition of agrominerals, too. Minor edits: consider rewording phrases and reviewing the overall flow of your paragraphs. Currently, it is difficult to understand how some sentences are connected and there are some grammatical/spelling errors that are easily fixable and would greatly enhance the readability!

Coverage Rock powder is significantly [and interestingly!] covered within the "Remineralization" section, whereas the actual process is not covered as much as I would have hoped. The introduction also introduced the reader to the vast world of agrominerals, yet the article covered little of what was initially mentioned. Overall, nevertheless, I enjoyed reading your work. Minor edits: consider adding visual aids in your discussion.

Neutral Content This article felt quite balanced overall- perhaps just a little rock powder/remineralization heavy (unless, of course, that is the only major process associated with this topic)! Minor edits: The article contains occasional vague phrases such as "agriculture practice" and "the agriculture industry" which prevent clarity at some instances; consider providing more specific examples when emphasizing these points.

Reliable Sources For the amount of content presented, it seems that there are too few sources provided. Further, the link for one of the sources does not work. Nevertheless, since both sources come from geochemistry and soil-related scientific journals, they do appear reliable!
