Functional fertilizers, also called functional fertilizers and multifunctional fertilizers, are comprehensive fertilizers that combine various nutrients required by crops with physiological and biochemical substances that promote crop growth, development, high yield, high quality, high efficiency, health and safety, and solve specific problems in specific periods of specific crops. Functional fertilizers are also called complete fertilizers, medicinal fertilizers, etc.
The research, development and application of functional fertilizers meet the requirements of ecological fertilizer process science, and their application technology distills advanced technology from the crossover of various disciplines such as crop cultivation, soil science, plant nutrition, plant protection, microbiology, chemical engineering and environmental protection, which is one of the important research and development directions of new fertilizers in the 21st century.
Functional Fertilizer Has the Following 7 Characteristics
I. Complete Nutrition
Functional fertilizer contains large amount of elements, medium amount of elements, trace elements and other nutrients required by crops, and once applied, no other fertilizer will be applied. It is a comprehensive fertilizer that solves all problems at one stage.
II, Medicine and Fertilizer in One
Functional fertilizer contains not only nutrients, but also pesticides, including plant regulators, herbicides, insecticides, fungicides and so on. Medicine and fertilizer in one, both fertilized and drugged.
III, The Dosage is Precise
A variety of fertilizers and pesticides, according to the crop stage needs, targeted and accurate measurement. Not only to meet the needs, but also not waste, economic and effective.
IV, High-Tech Content
Functional fertilizers contain various nutrients, chemical substances and pesticides. The ingredients are complex and the dosage is precise. For the production, processing, use are strict technical requirements, is the highest new modern science and technology.
V, Convenient and Labor-Saving
Functional fertilizer combines all the substances that need to be applied, such as fertilizers and pesticides, in one application, without the need for farmers to mix and match. Plus the shape of the fertilizer dosage form is very conducive to the application. The operation is simple and convenient, saving labor and time. It is commonly known as "lazy man fertilizer". Farmers are most welcome.
VI, Economic and Efficient
Functional fertilizer is fully nutritious, functional and precise dosage, both a substantial increase in yield and income benefits, but also the benefits of reducing input costs.
VII, Saving Environmental Protection
Functional fertilizer improves the utilization rate of fertilizer and saves resources; saves labor and energy. No waste, very helpful to prevent soil and water pollution, protect the ecological environment.
