Which fertilizer brand is good? See the top ten fertilizer brand rankings
Our country is a country with a large population, and grain production occupies an important position in the development of agricultural production. Fertilization is the main way to increase yield per unit area and promote grain increase in our country. Fertilization can not only improve soil fertility, but is also an important measure to increase crop yield per unit area, and is the most basic and most important material input in agricultural production. When choosing fertilizer brands, farmer friends should learn more about the basic characteristics, scope of application, methods of use, and precautions of fertilizer products. So which brand of fertilizer is good?
According to statistics from the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), chemical fertilizers account for about 40%-60% of the total share of crop yield increases. The fact that China can feed 22% of the world's population with 7% of the world's cultivated land shows that chemical fertilizers play a pivotal role. In recent years, under the strong advocacy of the state, new-type fertilizers in our country have developed rapidly, and various new-type fertilizers have continued to emerge. However, what is incompatible with the vigorous development of new-type fertilizers is that rural areas lack educated new-type farmers who understand technology. Many farmers have relatively low educational levels, are conservative in thinking, are slow to accept new things, and lack agrochemical knowledge. They do not know that improper fertilizer selection or improper application can also lead to reduced crop yields or even total crop failure, and they are especially unfamiliar with new-type fertilizers. Therefore, understanding some information about new-type fertilizers can help with better and more reasonable selection of fertilizer brand products, thereby achieving the goal of increasing yield.
Slow and controlled release fertilizers: refer to a type of fertilizer whose release pattern during the crop growing season is preset through a certain regulatory mechanism, so that nutrient release is consistent with the crop's fertilizer requirements. They have advantages such as improving fertilizer use efficiency, reducing usage amount and fertilization frequency, lowering production costs, reducing environmental pollution, and improving crop product quality. They can allow farmers to apply fertilizer only once per crop season and still meet the nutrient needs of the crop at each stage of growth. They are the best carrier for scientific fertilization technology and an important trend in fertilizer development. The disadvantage is that the price is a bit higher than ordinary chemical fertilizers, and release and dissolution are relatively slow, and even the early effect may be inferior to ordinary fertilizers.
Water-soluble fertilizers: are a kind of multi-element compound fertilizer that dissolves quickly and disperses quickly, can dissolve rapidly in water, is easily absorbed by crops, and can be used in facility agriculture such as sprinkler and drip irrigation to achieve integrated water and fertilizer management, achieving the effect of saving water, fertilizer, and labor. Water-soluble fertilizers include: macro-element water-soluble fertilizers, amino acid-containing water-soluble fertilizers, humic acid-containing water-soluble fertilizers, trace element water-soluble fertilizers, etc. Conventional water-soluble fertilizers contain various nutrient elements needed for crop growth, such as nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and various trace elements. When applying, the formula can be designed according to the nutritional requirements needed for crop growth, avoiding unnecessary waste. The disadvantage is that the fertilizer effect is relatively short.
Formula fertilizers, also called blended fertilizers (BB fertilizer): are new-type fertilizers developed during the implementation of soil testing and formula fertilization based on compound fertilizers (complex fertilizers). They are produced by compound fertilizer manufacturers according to specialized formulas formulated for the fertilizer requirements of different crops, soil nutrient content, and fertilizer supply performance. They can effectively regulate the contradiction between crop fertilizer demand and soil fertilizer supply, and supplement the nutrient elements needed by crops in a targeted manner. Whatever the crop lacks is supplemented, and however much is needed is supplied, controlling the amount of chemical fertilizer within a scientific and reasonable range. The disadvantage is that there are currently many ordinary, mass-market formula fertilizers on the market, while truly targeted formula fertilizers are relatively few.
Commercial organic fertilizers: are organic fertilizers produced in an industrial and commercialized manner using river mud, weeds, human and livestock manure, crop straw, and other resource materials rich in organic matter and usable as the main raw materials. Compared with traditional farmyard manure, they have higher nutrient content and stable quality. In particular, during the production process, harmful microorganisms such as parasite eggs and impurities such as grass seeds are killed, which can reduce the spread of diseases, insects, and weeds. Applying organic fertilizers can increase soil organic matter content, improve soil physical properties, and have a certain effect on improving the quality of agricultural products. The disadvantage is that although organic fertilizers contain relatively comprehensive nutrient elements, the content of effective components is relatively low, and the process by which organic fertilizers decompose in the soil and are absorbed and utilized by plants is relatively slow. It is best to apply chemical fertilizers together with organic fertilizers so that their advantages complement each other.
Trace element fertilizers: trace elements are relatively small in amount, such as boron, manganese, iron, zinc, copper, molybdenum, and other nutrient elements. Although crops need them in very small amounts, they are indispensable. For crops to be high-quality and high-yield, multiple nutrients need to work together and complement each other. They not only need macro elements such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, but also medium and trace elements. The lack of any one element in the soil will affect the normal growth and development of crops. When a certain trace element is lacking in crops, growth and development will be affected, yield will decrease, and quality will decline. In many areas of our country, the phenomenon of trace element deficiency in crops is already relatively common, and in some places it has restricted the improvement of crop product quality and yield.
Microbial fertilizers: are fertilizers made from one or more beneficial microbial living cells, mainly including rhizobium agents, nitrogen-fixing bacteria agents, phosphate bacteria agents, antibiotic bacteria agents, compound bacteria agents, etc.; polypeptide urea: uses metalloproteases to promote nutrient absorption and can improve nitrogen fertilizer use efficiency.
