Types of Fertilizer in the Market

Classified by ingredients or characters, fertilizer includes

inorganic fertilizer,organic fertilizer and biofertilizer. Inorganic fertilizer is also called as chemical fertilizer like nitrogenous fertilizer,phosphatic fertilizer,potash fertilizer and BB fertilizer; Organic fertilizer is called as farmyard manure such as animal manure,green manure,cake fertilizer,barnyard manure and compost windrow,etc; Biofertilizers containing living cells or latent cells of efficient strains of microorganisms that help crop plants’ uptake of nutrients by their interactions in the rhizosphere when applied through seed or soil.  accelerate certain microbial processes in the soil which augment the extent of availability of nutrients in a form easily assimilated by plants.

By the requirement of a certain element, fertilizer can be needed in large amount,medium amount and micro amount. The large amount fertilizer is like nitrogenous fertilizer,phosphatic fertilizer,potash fertilizer; the medium amount need fertilizer is like calcium fertilizer,magnesium fertilizer and sulfur fertilizer; the micro amount need fertilizer is the fertilizer with ingredients like iron, manganese,boron,zinc,copper, molybdenum and so on.

Categorize fertilizer into basic fertilizer,additional fertilizer,seed manure and foliar-fertilizer. Single-nutrient fertilizers will remain the dominant product while multi-nutrient and organic types grow the fastest.

Foliar fertilizer plants take in nutrients more efficiently through stomata (plant pores) than do through root uptake. give the growing things a quick boost with periodic mists or sprays of natural foliar fertilizers. Not only good for general fertilization but also an immediate way to revive and stimulate stressed, tired, or diseased plants. Foliar feeding is an effective way to compensate for soil deficiencies and poor soil’s inability to transfer nutrients to the plant. Tests have shown that foliar feeding can be 8 to 10 times more effective than soil feeding.

Seed manure is an excellent green manure that has bio fumigant properties. (Biofumigation is the suppression of soil borne pests & diseases by the release of naturally occurring gases). By combining the lush organic matter with the plants biofumigant properties the activity of beneficial soil microbes is increased, so they can outperform the pathogen microbes and this helps keep harmful soil diseases down.

BB fertilizer is a kind of bulk blending fertilizer which contains at least two elements among nitrogen,phosphorus and potassium. The widely applied formula fertilizer also belongs to bb fertilizer and it is specially formulated through nutrition and crop growing law which is very effective. The formula fertilizer is cost-effective and high-effect in crop, thus can increase profit.
We have seen controlled-release fertilizer which is a new type fertilizer. It can extend the effective period of fertilizer nutrition adoption by many controlling methods such as delay releasing initially. Formula fertilizer can improve fertilizer effect,reduce fertilizer amount and times, lower crop cost and environment pollution, improve crop quality. It is proved that the effective rate can be improved above 20% by using formula fertilizer.
