Minerals needed by plants exist in the soil. There are
about sixteen elements that are necessary in cultivating a
healthy plant. Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen are major nutrients from water and
carbon dioxide. Nitrogen, phosphorous, potassium, calcium, magnesium, sulfur, silicon,
boron, iron, copper, manganese, molybdenum, and sodium are macro and micro
nutrients needed for growth and reproduction.
However,
soil loses these nutrients. These are washed off from the soil during the rain. A very small part of organic fertilizer
return to the soil after
harvest. The fertility of the soil diminishes when it does not have time to rest.
Fertilization is not proportional due
to inappropriate amount of fertilizer
applied. These are common concern
of farmers around the globe until today.
The predicament of farmers and agriculturists inspired the
conduct of thorough research to address such problems which resulted to the
development of fertilizers containing the same nutrients, but act
more quickly and less susceptible to weather changes.
Various companies
have provided solutions to the prevailing problem thereby making it available commercially.
Here are some
of the known good and bad things about organic and inorganic fertilizers:
Organic fertilizers take longer time to take effect while inorganic fertilizers
have immediate effect on plants. Making compost is cheaper than buying an
inorganic fertilizer. But it will take more time to produce an organic
fertilizer than having an inorganic fertilizer from the store. Organic
fertilizers improve the quality of the soil while inorganic fertilizers
contribute to the toxicity and acidity of the soil. Try applying the good
points and avoiding the negative effects which may help a lot in your gardening.
