Raw materials (FERTILIZER)

Agricultural fertilisers are one of the agricultural inputs necessary for higher crop yields.
There are three types of fertilisers:
Organic: those that are naturally formed with very little human involvement in their formation. Organic fertilisers can be of mineral, vegetable or mixed origin. Manure would be an example of an organic fertiliser.
Chemical: these are mainly man-made nutrients. We also differentiate these chemical fertilisers by their manufacture: nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. They are mainly of mineral, vegetable or synthetic origin.
Inorganic: substances derived from rocks and minerals that are applied to the soil or substrate to increase the fertility of crops.
Fertilizers are food for plants. Just as we need an adequate and consistent diet to grow and stay healthy, plants and crops have to get proper nutrition from the soil to thrive.
Plants require a balanced supply of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and sulphur. As plants extract these nutrients from the soil during every growing season, they must be replenished through fertilizers, manure, and compost added to fields or gardens annually.
The advantage of using fertilizers is they can be applied with more control to match crop needs and protect the environment. They can also supplement manure or compost to ensure the soil gets an adequate supply of nutrients.
TAJ GMBH, is a leading company in supplying large quantity of single super phosphate. The reason is that the farmers are sure about the end benefits. The fertilizer is available in granule as well as powder form. The main raw materials required for ssp are rock phosphate and sulphuric acid. Ssp is a straight phosphatic multi-nutrient fertilizer which contain 16% water soluble p2o5,12% sulphur, 21% calcium and some other essential micro nutrient in small proportion. Ssp, which is a poor farmer’s fertilizer (price-wise), is an option to optimize the use of phosphatic fertilizer. It also helps to treat sulphur deficiency in soil (40% indian soil is sulphur deficient) as well for future enhancement of yield at the least cost. In various crops, which require more of sulphur and phosphate like oilseed , pulses, sugarcane, fruit, vegetable and tea etc, ssp is an essential fertilizer.
Most fertilizers that are commonly used in agriculture contain the three basic plant nutrients: nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. Some fertilizers also contain certain “micronutrients,” such as zinc and other metals, that are necessary for plant growth
Ssp is used in the basal dose for all crops like cotton, oil seed, sugarcane and wheat etc. Ssp is a multi nutrient carrier fertilizer.
The npk mixture is better & cheaper than complexes. It has a slow releasing nature & remains in the field for a long time. It is tailor made as per soil and is crop specific. It also contains sulphur & calcium without extra cost.
Fertilizer is responsible for approximately 50 percent of the world’s food supply. Macronutrients are the major building blocks of all fertilizers and make up the bulk of all fertilizer produced. Secondary nutrients are just as essential, but are needed in smaller amounts. Micronutrients may sound less important, but they’re not. The ‘micro’ means plants only require trace amounts, but they still can’t do without them.
Fertilizer is essential to sustainable crop production, for food and renewable fuels to feeding the world’s increasing population.
Fertilizer manufacturing sector is among the most efficient in the world. In the last few years, the industry has achieved significant reduction in emission levels, while total production has increased.
The industry also helps farmers reduce their greenhouse gas emissions while achieving the maximum economic yield from their fields. Applying nitrogen fertilizers correctly reduces the amount of nitrous oxide emissions into the atmosphere.
