1、Zero Growth of Chemical Fertilizer and Pesticide Use: China's Objectives, Progress and Challenges

For example, water soluble fertilizer, a completely water-soluble polyhydric compound fertilizer, containing nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, various trace elements, and all other nutrients needed for crop growth, has a utilization rate when applied to crops of 70% to 80%.

2、Smart Fertilizers as a Strategy for Sustainable Agriculture

They introduced inorganic fertilizers (urea and borax) in order to develop an organomineral fertilizer within a core/shell structure. They found that the final product contained 23.3% N and 0.65% boron with potential slow-release characteristics.

3、Preparation and characterization of controlled

The pellets of water-soluble nitrogen fertilizer were coated with the marine polysaccharide derivatives and MW. A convenient and eco-friendly method was used to prepare the CRF.

Water soluble phosphate fertilizers for crops grown in calcareous soils – an outdated paradigm for recycled phosphorus fertilizers?

The currently used commercial P compounds WSP and RP confirmed the requirement of water soluble P to nourish plants efficiently, as the fully water soluble WSP was the most efficient, and the sparingly water soluble RP the least efficient fertilizer on the calcareous soil (Fig. 5).
