Where fertilizer comes from?

Fertilizer is a substance added to the soil to improve plant growth and yield. Fertilizers were first used by ancient farmers, and with the discovery of the chemical needs for growing plants, fertilizer technology developed significantly. Modern synthetic fertilizers consist mainly of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium compounds, with the addition of secondary nutrients. The use of synthetic fertilizers has greatly improved the quality and quantity of food available today.

How does the fertilizer form?

As time went by, fertilizer technology became more and more sophisticated. New substances have been discovered to improve plant growth. The Egyptians were known to have added weeds from burning ashes to the soil. This time it was also learned that it was beneficial to plant legumes in the field before planting wheat. Other types of materials added include shell, clay, vegetable waste, waste from different manufacturing processes, and other sorted waste. Plants are also made of cells. Many of the metabolic chemical reactions responsible for growth and reproduction take place in these cells. Because plants do not eat food as animals do, they rely on nutrients in the soil to provide the basic chemicals for these metabolic reactions. However, the supply of these ingredients in the soil is limited, and as the plant is harvested, its quantity decreases, resulting in a decrease in plant quality and yield.

1. Primary fertilizers include substances derived from nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. Various raw materials are used to produce these compounds. When ammonia is used as a nitrogen source in fertilizer, a synthetic production method requires the use of natural gas and air. Phosphorus is made from sulfur, coal, and phosphate rock. Potassium comes from potassium chloride, which is the main component of potassium.

2. Secondary nutrients are added to some fertilizers to help make them more effective. Calcium is obtained from limestone, which contains calcium carbonate, calcium sulfate, and calcium magnesium carbonate.

What’s the future of fertilizers?

Fertilizer research is currently focusing on reducing the negative environmental impact of fertilizer use and on finding new and cheaper sources of fertilizer. Among the things being studied to make fertilizers more environmentally friendly are improved methods of application, providing fertilizers in a form that is less likely to run off, and preparing more concentrated mixtures. New sources of fertilizer are also being studied. Sewage sludge has been found to contain many of the nutrients needed for good fertilizer. Unfortunately, it also contains certain substances that are harmful to plants, such as lead, cadmium, and mercury. We are trying to remove unnecessary elements and make this material a viable fertilizer. Another source being developed is feces. The original fertilizers were fertilizers, but they were not used on a large scale because of the high cost of handling them. As technology improves and costs fall, this material could become a viable new fertilizer.
