Why Ratnakar Fertilizer Industries
- Chemical fertilizer is man-made fertilizer which is manufactured by reacting different chemicals. The organic fertilizer is manufactured using nutrition containing compounds that are present in the nature.
- Chemical Fertilizer can't be decomposed easily in extreme climatic conditions where as chemical fertilizer decomposes easily in high temperature. Also, the primary difference between chemical fertilizer and Organic Fertilizer is the speed at which nutrients become available to the plant for use.The chemical fertilizer provide plant nutrients for days, however Flora releases plant nutrients for months and years.
- Organic fertilizer contains more than a dozen of nutrients in organic form. This includes key components such as Nitrogen, Potassium, Phosphorous, trace elements like Calcium, Magnesium, Sulfur, Sodium, and other micronutrients such as Copper, Zink, Manganese, Iron, Cobalt, Molybdenum, Boron etc.
- The above nutrients are instrumental in plant growth development and available in Organic Fertilizer all at the same time where as chemical fertilizer contains one or two elements at a time.
- The chemical fertilizer provides nitrogen in the form of Ammonia. When it's sprayed on the plant, plenty of Nitrogen becomes available in the short amount of time, allowing some quantity of Nitrogen go to the atmosphere without being utilized.
- Also, the increased quantity of Nitrogen in chemical fertilizer¬ may denature the structure of the plant resulting in increased toxicity. As a result, when consumed by the end users, it may impact the final product in the food chain such as processed food, milk, meat etc.
- The fruit, flowers and color of the plant developed using Organic Fertilizer are better and offers more nutrition compared to the one's developed using chemical fertilizers.
- The chemical fertilizer freezes the microbial activity in the soil. As a result land becomes passive, hard, less porous and less fertile. On the other hand, Organic Fertilizer not only improves the soil condition, but also increases the porosity of the soil that allows air to penetrate the inner surface of the soil allowing plenty of Oxygen to micro-organism. This results in increase the microbial activity, which is instrumental for plant's health.
- The Organic Fertilizer contains ample of organic carbon and organic materials which is not available in chemical fertilizers. Here are the benefits of organic carbon
- The organic carbon is very good sources of food for micro-organism. The micro-organism multiplies in numbers by consuming organic carbon as a food. This results in increase the microbial activity in the soil.
- The micro-organism helps breaks down organic fertilizer to be able to provide nutrients that are easily absorbed by the plant.
- The organic carbon also help retain water in the soil for longer time. This helps significantly in drought conditions.
