Fertilizers: characteristics, types

It is no secret that the development of plant used mineral fertilizers – inorganic compounds, contributing to increase the harvest collection. In their composition they are divided into simple and complex.

Simple fertilizers are composed of one particular element, the complex also includes two or more components.

Here a logical question arises: if nature has created plants with all the necessary conditions, then why fertilize?

Yes, nature is really wise. She gave the plants the ability to synthesize organic matter from inorganic compounds, but with the latter a lot of trouble – the soil does not always have a huge number of them, as a result, the plant begins to lack. In the result grows less than planned, reduced productivity.

That is why every experienced farmer knows that the soil must be nourished! And that's what – depends on its type: clay often suffer from lack of manganese and iron sand in need of nitrogen and potassium and so on.

The main types of fertilizers:

• nitrogen;
• phosphorus;
• potassium;
• complex;
• micronutrient fertilizers.

Attention! To fertilize should be based on the user! In no case do not overdo it with fertilizer, otherwise there is a risk to cause the harvest (as well as the whole environment) irreparable harm! It is better to use less chemicals than to overdo it with him, remember this!

Fungicides

Mushrooms sprout everywhere, including vegetable and garden plants. If you do not take any measures, they will kill almost the entire crop. But often they do not succeed: farmers understand this, and therefore take protective measures. Almost every person, engaged in agriculture, there is at least one fungicide.

Fungicide is one of the most effective ways of combating fungi and fungal diseases. Essentially, it's a chemical (in some cases biological) weapons aimed at the destruction of the fungal cells.

Classification of fungicides

In the agricultural industry we distinguish between the following fungicides:

• inorganic;
• organic.

As practice shows, the most popular are organic because they: a) are composed of heavy metals; b) easy to use and easy to dissolve in water; C) blends with almost all types of pesticides.

Fungicides can be used as a means of prevention of diseases, and as the main method of dealing with them.

According to this criterion, they are divided into:

• preventive;
• treatment.

That is why, selection of fungicides should be used with caution: incorrect use of this tool is also able to strike at nature. And please don't forget to adhere to safety!

Fungicide – a dangerous and toxic substance that can destroy not only mushrooms, but also cattle, and even humans. Use it wisely!
