Rice growth, grain yield, and floodwater nutrient dynamics as affected by nutrient placement method and rate
The loss of major nutrients can be high in rice (Oryza sativa L.) fields, particularly rainfed rice, where water flowing from field to field during periods of high rainfall not only reduces the nutrient use efficiencies but also has the potential for environmental degradation. We examined the influence of deep point placement of N, P, and K briquettes compared to broadcast incorporation of N, P, ...

Sugarcane response to mill mud, fertilizer, and soybean nutrient sources on a sandy soil
Improving soil organic matter and soil fertility are important factors in the sustainability of sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) production. A 3-yr field trial was established in 2004 on a sandy Alfisol in Florida to compare the effect of organic and inorganic nutrient sources on sugarcane production. The three nutrient sources were (i) mill mud (filter cake, cachaza), (ii) local standard fertilizer, ...

How to ferment sugar dregs quickly to make organic fertilizer
Filter mud, chicken manure, pig manure, furfural residue and sugar residue left from sugar processing in sugar factory can be used as raw materials for organic fertilizer production. They are fermented under suitable conditions to form organic matter, which is then processed by the organic fertilizer production equipment to provide nutrients for crops. Method of fermenting organic fertilizer ...

NPK compound fertilizer production line manufacturers talk about sulfur use methods
NPK compound fertilizer production line manufacturers often use sulfur to reduce soil pH value and improve saline alkali soil in agriculture. However, the use of sulfur as nutrient fertilizer in agricultural production has not attracted people's attention until recently. Sulfur is an inert, insoluble yellow crystalline solid. Commercially, it can be stored in the open air, and it remains ...

Three reasons the F15/F15B is ideal for fall fieldwork
As all farmers know, there’s no rest after harvest—as soon as the crops are in, it’s time to prep seedbeds for next planting season. Fall fieldwork is key to generating good emergence and yield, so it’s important to get it right. Here’s a few reasons why AMCO’s F15/F15B Double Offset Tandem Disc Harrow is the perfect tool for the job: The F15/F15B breaks up ...

It’ll all be for the same purpose: to maximize the yield and take care of that soil
Brad McDougald jokes that farmers can always find something to complain about. “Doesn’t matter whether it’s too warm, too dry, too cold,” McDougald says with a chuckle. This year was a dry season in Drumheller, Alta., where his 2,500-acre farm produced about 40 per cent of its regular yield of wheat, canola, peas, lentils and barley. But for all the elements outside a ...

Benefits of fertilizer produced organic fertilizer granulator with chemical fertilizer
The actual utilization rate of chemical fertilizer in many areas is only 30% - 45%, and even lower in some areas! After applying organic fertilizer, due to its beneficial biological activity, the soil structure was improved, the soil water and fertilizer retention capacity was increased, the loss of nutrients was reduced, and the effective utilization rate of chemical fertilizer was increased to ...

The sanitation and urban agriculture nexus: urine collection and application as fertilizer in São Paulo, Brazil
Separately collected urine is an attractive potential fertilizer because of its high nutrient content, low cost, and inherent linkage of urban wastewater management and peri-urban agriculture. Urine from waterless urinals was applied to corn and lettuce plants to examine the impact of urine application rates and frequency on plant growth and soil parameters. In both corn and lettuce ...
