pH Minus / Efficiency Plus
In order for pesticides and fertilizers used in agriculture to be effective, the pH level is required to be below 7. pH values above 7 interfere with the intake of plant nutrients and more importantly, most pesticides will not work. As Olimpum, we offer you a solution. Thanks to ''Oligro pH Minus'', you can reduce the pH of the water and get maximum efficiency from pesticides and fertilizers. ...

Disc granulator has many advantages in processing organic fertilizer particles
Disc granulator can process fertilizer into granules, and fertilizer granulation is an important process in organic fertilizer production line. The quality of granulation affects the quality of final fertilizer. Organic fertilizer is mainly derived from plants and animals. It is a carbon-containing material that is applied to the soil to provide plant nutrition as its main function. The waste ...

NPK fertilizer granulation for slow-release granular fertilizer
Slow-release fertilizers mainly apply modern plant nutrition and fertilization theory, and take into account the law of crop nutrition demand, adopt some control mechanism technology to delay the release mode of fertilizer in soil, so that nutrient release mode and crop nutrient absorption are coordinated or synchronized. NPK fertilizer granulator machine makes powdery fertilizer into ...

Difference between organic fertilizer and chemical fertilizer
What is chemical fertilizer Chemical fertilizers are quick acting and exist in many forms, such as liquid and particle. Chemical fertilizers are water-soluble, and plants can immediately absorb nutrients. Although this provides a fast nutrient and fast greening, it will not last. Only organic fertilizer can maintain plant growth all the time. Chemical fertilizer can promote plant growth rapidly, ...

Fecal sludge-derived pellet fertilizer in maize cultivation
Fecal sludge (FS) contains significant amounts of plant nutrients and organic matter although it also contains pathogens. Therefore, FS can be used as fertilizer after proper sanitization. This study was designed to test dried fecal sludge (DFS)-based pellet fertilizers on maize cultivation. The DFS fertilizers were produced by composting, co-composting with sawdust, or irradiated by ...

Many Countries Reaching Diminishing Returns in Fertilizer Use
When German chemist Justus von Liebig demonstrated in 1847 that the major nutrients that plants removed from the soil could be applied in mineral form, he set the stage for the development of the fertilizer industry and a huge jump in world food production a century later. Growth in food production during the nineteenth century came primarily from expanding cultivated area. It was not until the ...

Top 10 Advantages of Organic Fertilizers for Agriculture and Farming
Fertilizers supplement the nutrients already present in the soil. The fertilizing products can be vaguely classified as Organic or Natural Fertilizers and Synthetic or Man-Made Fertilizers. While synthetic or chemical fertilizers are concentrated, strong and quick enough to dissolve in the soil immediately, Organic Fertilizers for plants release nutrients slowly with time and often contain many ...

Benefits of vetch and rye cover crops to sweet corn under no-tillage
Leguminous cover crops (CCs) may reduce N fertilizer requirements by fixing N biologically and storing leftover N-fertilizer applied in the previous year. The objective of this study was to determine the contribution of CCs [rye (Secale cereal L.) and hairy vetch (Vicia villosa Roth)] on plant N nutrition and weed suppression to the following sweet corn (Zea mays L.). The CCs were planted in the ...

Nitrogen recovery from source-separated human urine using clinoptilolite and preliminary results of its use as fertilizer
The use of source separated human urine as fertilizer is one of the major suggestions of the new sanitation concept ECOSAN. Urine is rich in nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium which act as plant nutrients, however its salinity is high for agricultural and landscape purposes. Moreover, characteristics change significantly throughout storage where salinity increases to higher values as the ...

How to Compost Pig Manure into Organic Fertiliser
In general, a 200lb pig would produce about 13lb manure per day. Pig manure contains plentiful essential nutrition ingredients like nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium for plant growth, which can promote healthy growth and increase the yield of grain crop. Even though pig manure is a commendable raw material of organic fertilizer, lots of pig manures carry E.coli, salmonella, parasitic worms and a ...

Recreating a functioning forest soil in reclaimed oil sands in Northern Alberta: an approach for measuring success in ecological restoration
During oil-sands mining all vegetation, soil, overburden, and oil sand is removed, leaving pits several kilometers wide and up to 100 m deep. These pits are reclaimed through a variety of treatments using subsoil or a mixed peat-mineral soil cap. Using nonmetric multidimensional scaling and cluster analysis of measurements of ecosystem function, reclamation treatments of several age classes were ...

Cool Season Fertilizing Time is Now
Cool season root and soil fertilizing is the best way to maintain year-round nutrient levels for deciduous trees, plants, and shrubs. In addition, cool season fertilizing prepares plants to grow with gusto as soon as warmer Spring temperatures return. Biofeed Solutions, Inc. has prepared this information to better explain. We will cover dormant root behavior, NPKs and Micro-nutrients.The cool ...

Top 10 Tips To Improve Plant Quality
1) Venting – it’s crucial to keep air movement and temperatures at the optimum levels. 2) Watering at the right times – and just importantly in the correct fashion! Make sure plants are grown nearby those with similar needs so plants with a need for a lot of water will be apart from those with dryer needs. 3) Keep roots strong – as fertilizers are applied and plants grow, ...

Organic Fertilizer Manufacturing Process Fermentation Mode
Organic fertilizer, commonly known as farm manure, consists of various animal, plant residues or metabolites, such as human and animal manure, straw, animal residues, slaughterhouse waste, etc. Carbon-containing materials, mainly from plants and animals, are applied to the soil to provide plant nutrition as its main function. It not only provides comprehensive nutrition for crops, but also has ...

Enhancing phosphorus phytoremedation potential of two warm-season perennial grasses with nitrogen fertilization
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 ...

Organic Fertilizer Benefits
Organic Fertilizer Benefits – Why not use synthetic fertilizers? It’s a reasonable question. After all, nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium ARE chemicals, so where is the advantage in these bags of heavy, grainy stuff, that need to be measured and mixed and then dug in, when you can just pick up a small plastic bottle of the blue stuff? There are several organic fertilizer benefits, ...
