Organic fertilizers are natural fertilizers made from plant or animal-based materials. They are often derived from plant and animal waste products, such as compost, manure, bone meal, and fish emulsion, or from natural minerals like rock phosphate and greensand. Organic fertilizers provide essential nutrients to plants, such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, as well as other micronutrients that are necessary for healthy plant growth.
Unlike synthetic fertilizers, which are manufactured using chemical processes, organic fertilizers are made using natural materials that are minimally processed. They are often considered to be a more environmentally friendly and sustainable option than synthetic fertilizers because they are less likely to contribute to soil and water pollution and can improve soil health over time.
Organic fertilizers also have the added benefit of improving soil structure and microbial activity, which can improve nutrient uptake by plants and reduce the risk of soil-borne diseases. Additionally, they can help to maintain long-term soil fertility and reduce the need for chemical fertilizers and pesticides, which can have negative environmental impacts.
