Liquid fertilizers are made from chemical powders that are mixed with nitrogen, phosphorus, or potassium and then dissolved in water. They are things that plants need to grow. You can spray liquid fertiliser right on the plant's leaves or put enough of it in the soil.
Farmers add these fertilizers to the soil to make it better for farming. Liquid fertilizers are used a lot these days in commercial farming and to help crops grow quickly. Nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium (NPK) balance is very important for healthy plant growth, and these fertilizers add any nutrients that are missing from the soil.
Different kinds of liquid fertilizer
organic fertilizers
- Minerals are found in crop waste, animal waste, and animal slurries, which are all sources of organic fertilizers. These fertilizers have a lot of nutrients and make the soil better in other ways. They help plants grow and thrive in general.
- Liquid biofertilizers are organic fertilizers that are good for the environment and have living microorganisms. They give the plants the nutrients they need and make the root mass bigger.
- These liquid biofertilizers fix the amount of nutrients in the air and dissolve phosphorus nutrients so they can be absorbed by plants.
- These fertilizers can last longer than chemical fertilizers and are very important for growing organic crops.
Mineral Fertilizers
Mineral fertilizers are the chemicals that are put on the leaves or in the soil of plants. These fertilizers give the plant the essential nutrients it needs to grow well. They have all the nutrients plants need to grow healthy and help get rid of the need to switch crops.
- Mineral fertilizers include nitrogen fertilizers, phosphorus fertilizers, and potassium fertilizers.
- Liquid nitrogen fertilizers add nitrogen to the soil so that plants can take it up quickly. These nutrients can be put on the plant or in the soil with other nutrients. The most common liquid nitrogen fertilizers are liquid urea fertilizers i.e., urea-ammonium nitrate solution.
- Liquid phosphorus fertilizers give the plant phosphate, which is a macronutrient that helps plants grow quickly in the early stages.
- Liquid potassium fertilizers add potassium to plants, which is important for cell growth and keeping plants from getting sick. They are important for making the roots stronger and for the plant to grow as a whole.
Liquid Micronutrients Fertilizer
These fertilizers add to the soil the essential micronutrients that plants need to stay healthy. The trace elements such as copper, zinc, boron, and manganese are often ignored and much importance is not given to their deficiency in the soil. When plants don't get enough micronutrients, their growth stops, their leaves get damaged, and their roots get weak. The lack of these trace minerals can be fixed with liquid micronutrient fertilizers.
