Best Answer

A lot of fertilizer contains ammonium nitrate (NH4-NO3) which will detonate if it is pure enough and started with a blasting cap. If simply placed on a fire it may or may not burn depending on the purity of ammonium nitrate. If diesel fuel is added to ammonium nitrate fertilizer it is called a Fuel-Oxidizer fire, or fuel oxidizer bomb as the case may be.
