The risks of nitrate leaching into water, fluctuations in the global prices of granulated urea and the high level of energy consumption in the production of ammonium nitrate are all reasons that urge us to seek alternatives to the sole use of chemical mineral fertilisers as a source of nitrogen fertilisation for plants. Enriching soil …

Urea 46: a nitrogen fertiliser used worldwide Urea 46 is the most used nitrogen-based fertiliser worldwide in terms of tonnes due to its high nitrogen content. Industrially synthesised from ammonia and carbon dioxide, the finished product in the form of granulated or prilled urea contains the elements carbon, oxygen, hydrogen and nitrogen. The gradual mineralisation …
Adopting organic farming practices for your fields or garden means encouraging plant growth without using most synthetic chemical products. Based on respect for the universal life cycle, fertilisation in organic farming should help plants rather than act as a substitute for nature, and has emerged as a response to consumer trends towards sustainable farming. …
For the last few decades, plant fertilisation has been based on 3 components: The analysis of the soil and its compounds, pH, levels of NPK nutrients The crop’s physiological needs in terms of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium for growth The NPK nutrients to input in the form of fertiliser to bridge the gap between crop …
The many functionalities of silicon make it a fundamental element for plants in their strategies to fight against diseases and pathogens. After oxygen, silicon is the most abundant element in the earth’s crust, yet it is only present in small quantities in living matter. Indeed, these origins make it an element that is difficult to …

Soil is said to be poor when it is not able to produce nutrients such as essential microorganisms for humans, plants and animals, and this for generations. Unfortunately, it is not uncommon to see acidic soils poor in humus and organic matter. Therefore, it is high time to reconsider the earth as the fundamental link …
