Organic Manure offers several benefits for soil health, plant growth, and the environment. Here are some key benefits:
Improves Soil Structure:
Organic manure improves soil structure, increasing the soil's ability to retain nutrients and water, which eventually makes plants and soil strong and healthy.
Slow-Release Nutrients:
Since organic manures are slow-release, it is rare to over-fertilize and harm the plants.
Safe for Plants: The chances of toxins, salts, and chemicals building up in the soil are hardly there, therefore, your plants will be safe.
Environmentally Friendly:
Organic manures are biodegradable, renewable, environmentally friendly, and are also sustainable.
Increases Water Retention:
Organic matter increases the amount of available water in sandy and loamy soils.
Reduces Erosion:
Surface run-off and erosion are reduced by organic matter as there is good infiltration.
Provides Nutrients:
Organic matter serves as a reservoir of chemical elements that are essential for plant growth.
Improves Drainage and Aeration:
Organic matter supplies food for such soil life as earthworms, ants, and rodents. These micro-organisms improve drainage and aeration.
Microbe-enriched organic composting is a process that involves the decomposition of organic matter, such as leaves, vegetable scraps, and garden trimmings, into a valuable soil amendment known as compost. This cycle is worked with by microorganisms, like microbes and growths, alongside bigger life forms like worms and bugs.
Fertilizers play a key role in improving the productivity of various crops. Fertilizers contain three primary elements. They are nitrogen (N), phosphorous (P) and potassium(K). They are usually represented on the package as a percentage of their weight i.e. 10-8-6 meaning 10% of N, 8% of P and 6% of K. Formulation percentages vary depending on intended use and desired effects.
DAP+ fertilizer is a balanced and available source of phosphorus and nitrogen for plant nutrition. It is highly soluble and dissolves quickly in soil to release phosphate and ammonium. DAP+ provides P nutrition throughout phenological stages of crop development and growth, as well as a starter dose of nitrogen and low sulfur. During dissolution in the soil, it temporarily alkalizes the soil solution, which allows effective use of DAP+ on soils with a pH < 7.0.
