A fertiliser is a natural or synthetic substance that contains chemical elements that help plants grow and produce more. There are numerous different fertiliser types, but the majority of them comprise nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K). Fertilizers either improve the soil’s natural fertility or replace chemical elements that previous crops had taken from the soil.
Chemical fertiliser is defined as any inorganic element of entirely or partially synthetic origin that is applied to the soil to encourage plant growth. It has the advantage of being relatively affordable. Humans use chemical reactions to manufacture industrial fertilisers (ammonium phosphate, urea, and ammonium nitrate).
Organic fertilisers are substances that are formed from the remains or byproducts of natural animals and give the nutrients that plants require to develop. Mineral fertilisers (phosphorus and potash) extract from the environment and crushed or chemically processed before use. Animal faeces, plant or animal decomposed matter is used to create organic fertilisers (manure and compost).
Despite the fact that chemical fertiliser production is a part of the chemical industry, the chemical fertilizer industry has grown to become a distinct and important sector due to its nature.
