What are NPK fertilisers?
They are fertilizers containing high percentage by mass of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium
What are the ingredients in man-made fertilizer?
Depends on the formulation of the fertilizer in question. Generally the most commonly produced fertiliser blends are "NPK" type fertilisers. These contain the three main "macro-nutrients" that plants require for growth - namely Nitrogen (N), Phosphate (P) and Potassium (K) - the NPK notation is the chemical element as per the periodic table. The amount or ratio of NP and K varies according to the formulation that is manufactured and according to the purpose of the fertiliser. Nitrogen - encourages green shoot formation Phosphates - aid in the establishment of a good root system Potassium - is used in flower and fruit formation For example a fertiliser NPK 10-10-10 can be produced, this has equal parts NPK and can be considered a "balanced fertiliser", another formulation such as NPK 3-1-5 is designed to promote shoot (green) growth and flowering and fruiting - and only offers a small percentage of Phosphate for root development. Advanced formula of chemical fertilisers can also contain Trace Elements (normally denoted by +TE after the NPK on the packaging). These provide the equally necessary micro-elements for growth (Copper, Boron, Manganese etc.) but in much smaller quantities than the NPK portion.
What elements are supplied when NPK fertilizers are used?
Nitrogen (N), Phosphorous (P), Potassium (K).
Will plants still grow without the NPK fertilizer if all the trace elements are present?
yes if u lick my balls
On a label NPK fertilizer is written What does this expression mean?
N stands for Nitrogen.P and K stands for phospharus and pottasium respectively.They are elements in fertilizer.
Are NPK fertilizers harmless?

Can you export NPK fertilizer?
Yes, NPK (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium) fertilizers can be exported.
What is the NPK of a mixture of equal amounts of one fertilizer whose NPK is 2-1-1 with another whose NPK is 0-3-1?
2-4-2.

Do you know how to make granules of npk compound fertilizer?
The npk production line for producing npk compound fertilizer includes feeding, mixing, granulating, screening, drying, cooling, packaging and other links. Do you want to know how to make npk compound fertilizer granules? NPK compound fertilizer granulation equipment is the main equipment for producing NPK granular fertilizer. Such as npk compound fertilizer double roller granulator, npk compound fertilizer disc granulator and npk compound fertilizer drum granulator, etc.NPK fertilizer twin roll extrusion granulator is the most popular granulator among all NPK fertilizer granulator. Why does the public choose a twin-roll extrusion granulator? The npk compound fertilizer double roller granulator belongs to dry granulation. So you don't need to use drum dryer and drum cooler to remove moisture from npk fertilizer granules. This will save you production time and the cost of coolers and dryers. Various granule shapes can be selected with the npk fertilizer twin roll extrusion granulator. Such as pillow shape, semicircle shape, rod shape, pill shape, walnut shape, flat shape, square bar shape, etc. Besides twin roll extrusion granulation, we also have another fertilizer making machine rotary drum granulator to make npk fertilizer granules. Compared with the twin-roll extrusion granulator, there are some different features. Lined with rubber engineering plastics, the raw materials are not easy to stick to the cylinder. Rubber engineering plastics can also play the role of anti-corrosion insulation. This npk fertilizer drum granulator still has the characteristics of large output, low power consumption and low maintenance cost. The particle formation rate of npk fertilizer is as high as 70%, and the amount of returning material is small. And the particle size of the returned material is small, which can be re-granulated. In addition, the drum granulation method is used to make npk fertilizer, no matter the powder fertilizer can be successfully made into granular npk at a temperature lower than or higher than room temperature.
