You’ve added the phosphorus. You’ve followed the recommended rates. But your crops are still struggling. What gives? The answer lies beneath your feet—in the chemistry of your soil. The Phosphorus Illusion: More Isn’t Always Better Many growers assume that applying more phosphorus guarantees healthy plant growth. But in reality, phosphorus applied does not automatically ...

Detection Technologies of Soil Fertilizer The detection of soil fertilizer is mainly to detect the chemical elements contained in it, and the most content is nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. Determination of nitrogen content Nitrate is reduced by nitrogen alloy in alkaline medium and then distilled out ammonia; or nitrate is reduced into ammonium salt in acid medium, and concentrated sulfuric ...
Organic fertilizer production machine is a kind of equipment which takes chicken and pig manure as the main raw materials, adds a certain amount of nitrogen fertilizer, phosphorus fertilizer, potassium fertilizer, magnesium sulfate and other substances, uses rice bran, yeast, soybean meal and sugar as biological bacteria for fermentation for a certain time, and produces biological fertilizer by ...
The main characteristics of NPK fertilizer production by counter roll pelletizing equipment are as follows: Processing compound fertilizer containing a certain proportion of nitrate nitrogen. Nitrate nitrogen is widely used due to its high temperature and humidity, but it has strong hygroscopicity, and it will be deliquescence into mud under high temperature and humidity, which makes the ...
The special organic fertilizer machine is a kind of equipment which takes chicken manure, cow manure and other animal manure as the main raw material, adds certain amount of potassium, nitrogen fertilizer, phosphorus fertilizer and other substances, and ferments yeast, rice bran, soybean meal and sugar for a certain time as biological bacteria, under the action of sulfuric acid, mixed ...
In recent years, the development of organic fertilizer production equipment is faster and faster. In order to solve the problem of manure, farmers or aquicultures have focused their attention on manure processing by fertilizer production machine. The following is the introduction of organic fertilizer production equipment by Tianci fertilizer machine manufacturers. 1. Fertilizer production ...
The content of soil organic matter is closely related to the level of soil fertility. Although organic matter only accounts for a small part of the total amount of soil, it plays a significant role in maintaining soil fertility. The manufacturer of organic fertilizer production equipment introduces six important functions of organic matter to maintain soil fertility. 1. Provide nutrition for ...
Enhancing Foliage Color of Ornamental Cabbage and Kale with Prior-to-Shipping Light and Temperature Treatments in Coolers Introduction Ornamental flowering cabbage and kale (Brassica oleracea var. acephala) is a bedding plant that is typically produced outdoors in the late summer and early fall. It is popular due to its vibrant and intense purple, white, and pink foliage colors that are ...
Rotem Amfert Negev Ltd (hereafter "Rotem") is an integrated, multinational company which mines and beneficiates phosphate rock and produces a comprehensive range of products based on phosphate rock as raw material, leading to downstream derivatives such as phosphoric acids, fertilizers, specialty chemicals and phosphate salts. ...
The other day I came across an old news article from 2008 about a Dutch energy plant that burns 485,000 tons of poultry litter each year, converting it into renewable electricity. Wow, I thought. That is an old-fashioned way of getting rid of poultry litter – they must be releasing some 14,550 tons nitrogen gas into the atmosphere. All this to produce 270,000 MWh of electricity, 890,000 MWh ...
Despite the fact that Ethiopia is one of the fastest-growing economies in the world, fertilizer often remains an out-of-reach expense. And if farmers are able to buy phosphorus fertilizer, they typically apply only a fraction of what is needed, which diminishes, if not eliminates, the intended effects of the fertilizer. ...

Phosphorus run-off from urban lawn care is a significant water quality concern in many US suburban communities. Many state and municipal governments in the USA adopt urban fertilizer laws or ordinances that prohibit the use of phosphorus-containing lawn fertilizers. This study assesses the long-term water-quality impacts of two phosphorus-reduction scenarios in a suburban watershed in Central ...
The concept of critical source areas of phosphorus (P) loss produced by coinciding source and transport factors has been studied since the mid 1990s. It is widely recognized that identification of such areas has led to targeting of management strategies and conservation practices that more effectively mitigate P transfers from agricultural landscapes to surface waters. Such was the purpose of P ...
On global and continental/regional bases, we assembled nine years data on: total dry cereal grain and total dry legume seed production, production of barley, maize, rice, soybean and wheat grains/seeds, yields, area farmed, the tonnage of phosphorus and phytic acid removed in these crops and the elemental phosphorus applied as mineral fertilizers ...
Received for publication December 8, 2008. Phosphorus enrichment of surface water is a concern in many urban watersheds. A 3-yr study on a silt loam soil with 5% slope and high soil test P (27 mg kg–1 Bray P1) was conducted to evaluate P fertilization and clipping management effects on P runoff from turfgrass (Poa pratensis L.) under frozen and nonfrozen conditions. Four fertilizer treatments ...
Phytoremediation or use of plants to extract soil nutrients is a practice used to ameliorate the impacts of excessive soil nutrients. Pensacola bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum Flügge) and ‘Floralta’ limpograss [Hemarthria altissima (Poir.) Stapf & Hubb] were grown in a P-impacted Immokalee fine sand (Mehlich-1 P 30 mg P kg–1) to evaluate increasing N levels on dry matter yield (DMY), forage P ...
A 3-yr (2005–2007) field experiment was conducted on a Gray Luvisol (Typic Cryoboralf) loam near Star City, SK, Canada, to determine the influence of single and combined annual applications of N, P, and S fertilizers on timothy (Phleum pratense L.) forage dry matter yield (DMY), quality [concentration of crude protein (CP), nitrate N, acid detergent fiber (ADF), neutral detergent fiber (NDF), ...
