They are not better than organic fertilizers. They can really harm the plant.

----------

Organic fertilizer is only a source of nitrogen; chemical manmade fertilizers can offer nitrogen, potassium, phosphorous and other microelements. These fertilizers are stable and can be easily transported at long distances.

Natural fertilizers are insufficient for all the world.

Are all fruits and vegetables at a Farmers Market organic?

No, not really. Most organic farmers like to tell that they are so they can sell to people who want only organic. Ask the farmer if he is or not. He'll tell you. Organic means no chemicals, pesticides or fertilizers, at a farmers market you will find wholesome fresh picked straight from the vine vegetables, but to certify that they have never come into contact with any chemicals of any kind is a different matter altogether, that is why organic ( certified ) cost so much. Trust me you will be very happy with the food you get at the farmers market, and it will be a lot better than anything you can get at a chain store.


How do organic fertilizers differ from inorganic fertilizers?

Organic fertilizers are animal manures or materials like alfalfa meal, feather meal, blood meal, fish meal, greensand, oyster shell flour, and other organic soil amendments. Organic fertilizers are either waste from farms, or byproducts of fishing, poultry, or cattle processing. Inorganic fertilizers are purely chemical, and are much more concentrated than organic fertilizers. Organic fertilizers require the soil food web (soil organisms like bacteria, fungi, and protozoa) to break them down into the chemicals plants need to fuel the growth of roots, leaves, stems, flowers, and fruit. Because organic fertilizers need soil organisms to break them down, they release more slowly into the environment. They also tend to work best when the soil is warm than under cooler soil conditions, because soil organisms are more numerous and active when soil is warm. Inorganic (chemical) fertilizers release very quickly into the soil, so they tend to produce a faster response in plants. They're also water-soluble, so they may flush through the soil and into waterways during heavy rains, polluting the water.
