inorganic fertilizers
Inorganic fertilizers are man-made substances that provide specific nutrients, like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, to plants. They are synthesized through chemical processes and are designed to quickly supply essential elements that plants need for growth. Unlike organic fertilizers, which come from natural sources such as compost or manure, inorganic fertilizers are processed to deliver nutrients in a concentrated, soluble form, making them easily absorbed by plants. They are widely used in agriculture to boost crop yields efficiently but should be applied carefully to avoid environmental issues like runoff and soil imbalance.
