Fertilizer is a substance added to soil to improve plants’ growth and yield. First used by ancient farmers, fertilizer technology developed significantly as the chemical needs of growing plants were discovered. Modern synthetic fertilizers are composed mainly of nitrogen, phosphorous, and potassium compounds with secondary nutrients added. The use of synthetic fertilizers has significantly improved the quality and quantity of the food available today, although their long-term use is debated by environmentalists. Like all living […]
What are the dosage of medium and trace element of fertilizer for crops? The dosage of medium element on soil is about the same with nitrogen (N) phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) or even more, but that of trace element is less, such as most field crops with only 1-2 kilograms of zinc sulfate and 0.5-1 kilograms of borax. The dosage for cash crops such as fruit and vegetables is a little higher but still […]
The capability of soil to provide and coordinate nutrient substance and environmental conditions for plants’ normal growth is called soil fertility. When it comes to formula fertilization, the first need is to realize the soil fertility. Soil fertility is the comprehensive performance of physical, chemical, biological and environmental factor. By now there is not an exact quantity index to express soil’s fertility, nor one or several factor numbers to generalize soil fertility, so it is […]
