Contest: Organic fertilizers vs chemical fertilizers .

in Nature & Agriculture21 hours ago

Hello Steemains friend,


Nature & Agriculture


Assalamu Alaikum

On behalf of the Nature and Agriculture Community @mostofajaman Admin of this community has organized a very nice subject Fertilizers contest for us. Fertilizers are essential to increase plant production and in increasing the production of these plants we use various Organic fertilizers as well as chemicals which are very harmful to the environment.And if trees cannot survive in the environment, the environment will become uninhabitable.

✅ Which one do you use between chemical fertilizer and organic fertilizer?

Planting a variety of plants, vegetables and fruits, to increase plant fertility and produce more crops, plants need some essential nutrients to produce.

For the normal growth of plants, plants collect nutrients other than oxygen, carbon and hydrogen from the soil, especially nitrogen potassium, phosphorus, calcium, sulfur, zinc, iron.And all these mineral nutrients are often deficient in the soil, the tree cannot receive its necessary nutrients, in which case the plant has to be fertilized for extra normal growth. Among these fertilizers there are some fertilizers which are available naturally and some fertilizers are mixed with chemicals .


Chemicals, anything be it trees or people are harmful to everyone. Anything naturally produced is not harmful to humans or plants.

So I always try to use natural or organic organic fertilizers in the production of my garden plants. In this case I use dung which is organic fertilizer. Many organic outfits that can be applied to many plants are: We use our daily vegetables a lot. We can decompose discarded residues of these vegetables and make organic matter.And I mix vegetables in my plants throughout the year with rotting organic manure and dung, organic manure in the soil of the plant.

I always try to apply organic fertilizers to plants all the time but in special cases some chemicals have to be used. Apart from dead animal bones molasses and horn molasses are also used as organic fertilizers. Moreover, there are various types of organic fertilizers available in the market that I apply to plants.

Many times it is seen that the leaves of the plant turn red brown on both sides and sulfur of potash cannot be applied naturally, in which case I spray chemical SOP then potash on the ground or mixed with water.

So I always try to give organic fertilizer to plants if any plant ever needs any specific fertilizer I use that chemical fertilizer. Chemical fertilizers are harmful to plants and environment so considering all these aspects I always use organic fertilizers in plant care.


✅ Assess the status of your country's us of chemical fertilizers.

We use a lot of chemical fertilizers for growing crops, crop production without worrying about soil health.
The most important thing to improve soil health is organic fertilizers. The main source of organic fertilizer is dung.
Our country uses different types of chemical fertilizers like Urea, DAP, Triple super phosphate etc. for crop production.
But the price of chemical fertilizers in the international market is exorbitant.Moderate use of chemical fertilizers is important to reduce the production cost of farmers to reduce major costs.


A small amount of fertilizer is required for some amount of crops.Plants grow by soil-derived fertilizers (it is not possible to meet the required needs of plants in sufficient quantities for the growth and production of fertilizers needed in the soil for the production of rights crops.The use of chemical fertilizers in the soil is required for the crops and production of rights to meet the nutritional needs of plants.

Applying chemical fertilizers increases crop productivity steadily, filling plant nutrient deficiencies as well as farmers achieving higher yields. Population is increasing day by day, the use of chemical fertilizers on land is increasing day by day to meet the food needs of this growing population.Chemical fertilizers are more economical to apply in soil than organic fertilizers and the application process is also much easier. So farmers are increasing the use of chemical fertilizers instead of organic fertilizers day by day.

✅ Explain the adventages and disadvantages of organic fertilizers and chemical fertilizers.

Organic fertilizers are natural fertilizers that reach the excrement or residual parts of animals and plant residues to naturally decompose to form organic fertilizers. The most important are organic fertilizers, dung, compost fertilizers, Mustard cake .

Applying organic fertilizers increases the amount of organic matter in the soil, as well as increases soil fertility. As the decomposing part of the organism merges into the soil, the nutrients needed by the plant, especially nitrogen, phosphorus, and calcium, can be obtained from the soil by plants organically. The use of organic fertilizers improves the quality of the soil and increases the fertility of the soil day by day.And crop production increases consistently.

The advantage of use is that the quality of the soil increases. Naturally, the organic matter in the soil is not damaged. All these organic matter in the soil can increase the water holding capacity of the soil. Organic manure it does no harm to the environment.

The biggest disadvantage of using organic fertilizers is that the soil does not contain the nutrients needed by plants, nitrogen, and potassium and calcium NPK are the basic nutrients required. So plant growth is low and crop production is reduced to a modest size.


Chemical fertilizers


Trees from soil to increase crop production
So that gets the necessary nutrients.Chemical fertilizers are mixed in the soil to increase crop production at higher rates.Chemical fertilizers are mixed with soil in areas where soil fertility is low to increase crop production.


One such chemical fertilizer is urea that increases plant growth containing nitrogen.


BenefitsDisadvantages
Advantages of chemical fertilizers are higher crop production by increasing fertility of fertile soilNatural microorganisms are damaged by chemical fertilizers thereby reducing soil fertility.
Micro nutrients needed by the soil for plant growth especially (NPK) Nitrogen, potassium ,calcium gets directlyThe use of chemical fertilizers increases plant production but decreases soil fertility.
We use chemical fertilizers at higher rates to increase plant productivityUsing chemical fertilizers often burns trees and kills trees.Crop production is disrupted.
The use of chemical fertilizers on land at a higher rate to increase plant production and increase crop production increases plant and crop production day by day, less plant attack than insects , resulting in higher yield on trees.In industrial plants, chemical fertilizers are made of harmful substances mixed with chemicals, although plant production and plant growth and production increase, these harmful chemicals cause a lot of damage to the human body and the environment. Applying excess chemical fertilizers to the soil reduces soil fertility, pollutes and pollutes the water mixed with this contaminated soil and pollutes the water in the river channel. Water pollution also pollutes the environment. Besides, eating crops, fruits or food grains mixed with this chemical causes a lot of damage to the human body.

Applying chemicals reduces plant productivity and kills trees, threatening the survival of humans and animals in the environment.


✅ Currantly, there is a lot of us of chemical fertilizers. How can we reduce this and use organic fertilizers?

If the soil loses fertility and the amount of organic matter in the soil decreases, it will be harmful to humans.

Because applying chemical fertilizers mixed with chemicals day by day will reduce soil fertility as well as increase plant production and decrease crop production.
Our country is dependent on agriculture so if the level of chemical fertilizers increases day by day, our agricultural land will become uncultivable.

  • So on land we can reduce chemical fertilizers and use organic fertilizers more in this case the production of cattle should be increased and also we will be able to produce more organic fertilizers mixed with dung from cattle.

  • We need to produce perennial pasture crops on agricultural land.The more cattle can be produced the more grazing land systems must be built for the cattle producer as well.If grazing land can be created, the application of chemical fertilizers will continue to decline.

  • Production of other types of crops is more important than planting similar crops repeatedly on the same land in terms of annual crop production. Repeated production of the same crop reduces the fertility of the soil fertility of that crop and therefore the production of the type of crop is necessary to keep the organic material in the soil intact.

In organic fertilizer production we can mix earthworms with soil to make vermicompost which is the best organic fertilizer. It also costs a lot less and I can mix the same fertilizer with the soil again and again to make more organic fertilizers. This fertilizer is an environmentally friendly natural organic fertilizer and is also relatively low in price. In this way I can reduce the demand for chemical fertilizers by applying more organic fertilizers mixed with Vermi compost to the soil than by applying chemical fertilizers.
