Definition for foliar Application?
Foliar fertilizers are fertilizers that are applied to boost nutrient density in crops and to correct nutrient deficiencies.
Why do chemical fertilizers provide nutrients to algae?
Fertilizers contain high concentrations of nitrogen, a limiting nutrient for algae.
What type of pollutant Fertilizers such as nitrates and phosphates are examples of?
plant nutrient
What are complex fertilizers?
Complex Fertilizers ate fertilizers that supply more than one plant nutrient. Example: Di-Ammonium Phosphate (DAP) contains 18% N and 20% P (46% P2O)Advantages of Complex Fertilizers are:The possibility of adulteration is generally less.Each granule is homogenous in nutrient content.Being granular, the drilling of fertilizer is easy.They are cheaper than straight or mixed fertilizers.Phosphorus availability is not affected (fixation is less) as the phosphorus in the granules will have less contact with soil particlesIf you want to more detailed answer check out the related link below.
Why are fertilizers applied?
To give the tree what it is lacking. Fertilizers are given to trees or plants because the landscape they re planted in does not support the nutrient needs of the plants.
What nutrient is least likely to be affected when overcooking?
minerals
What is the impact of chemical fertilizers and pesticides?
Declining diversity, dependent growth, depleted soil fertility, nutrient build-up and polluted nutrient runoff are impacts of chemical fertilizers and pesticides.Specifically, chemical fertilizers focus on the three macronutrients at the expense of the total nutrient picture for healthy plants and soils. They leave the soil less fertile and more occupied by nutrient build-up that is in inaccessible forms at too high levels. Additionally, they may harm soil structure so that particles do not clump together well or that air and moisture levels are harmed. Problems with air, moisture and nutrient levels often lead to polluted nutrient runoff into area water bodies during rain events.
When a deficiency exists for one nutrient will other levels be affected?

How are fertilizers which contain nitrogen potassium and phosphorus made?
Artificially or naturally are ways in which fertilizers containing nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium are made.Specifically, artificially made fertilizers contain synthetic nutrient ingredients. Naturally made fertilizers include naturally occurring minerals, as in the case of organic fertilizers. They list among their ingredients natural materials that break down into plant and soil nutrients in the case of compost.
Explain why farmers regularly add nitrate fertilizers to their field?
It's not entirely true to say, "...regularly add nitrate fertilizers..." since farmers in the US generally select the kind of fertilizers to use based on the nutrient needs of the crop, timing of application, and price of the fertilizer material. Nitrate fertilizers are one form they can use to get nitrogen, possibly the single most important nutrient, to their crops. However, nitrates are not always the most appropriate form to use, and so they also use ammonium types such as urea or anhydrous ammonia.
What has the author Wen-Yuan Huang written?
Wen-Yuan Huang has written: 'The economic and environmental consequences of nutrient management in agriculture' -- subject(s): Environmental aspects, Environmental aspects of Nitrogen fertilizers, Nitrogen fertilizers
What fertilizer is best for cabbage?
Palm fertilizer is what is best for cabbage palm trees (Sago palmetto).Specifically, cabbage palm trees benefit from specialty fertilizers. They do not need heavy nitrogen nutrient inputs. Instead, they have to have fertilizers with a higher percentage nutrient weight in phosphorus. They also like their fertilizers to include magnesium and manganese, nutrients in which they easily become deficient.
