farmers fertilise soil because it means they can grow good crops every year. The soil only has so many nutrients, essential to plants, and they can be used up easily. Without nutrients, the plants will die so farmers add extra nutrients to keep their plants alive with enough nutrients
soil is just earth and fertilizer is animal excrement or droppings and soil mixed together
If you mean bagged, granular fertilizer, like that sold for garden and lawn use, it tends to be slightly acidic. Use of fertilizers, as in farm soil, over a period of years definitely increases the acidity of the soil, which is why farmers add lime every few years.
Fertilizer helps to provide nutrients. When added to soil, plants and flowers can greatly benefit from the minerals and nutrients.
Soil can be too acidic for some crop plants to grow. Thus liming the soil, which is a basic fertilizer, will decrease acidity and increase neutralization of the soil so plants can grow well in. It's also a way for livestock to get their calcium when grazing.
You apply fertilizer to soil to increase the amount of nutrients and minerals inside, so that any plants you grow on the soil will grow stronger and better
by using fertilizer
Nitrogen enriched soil and chemicals are typically used as fertilizer to improve soil.
The farmers put lime water on acidic soil.
idsloving it in soil
some farmers add fertilizer, and some add manure. they are for the same purpose. to help grow their crops! :)
to increase the soil nutrient is to get fertilizer and put it in the soil to get fertilizer you could get it from many stores like the home depot or lowe.
They can either a) spread a nitrogen based fertilizer, or b) rotate to a crop that replaces the nitrogen in the soil.
It helps put nutrients in the soil and this helps the plants in it to grow.
That's a very odd question, farmers don't put minerals in soil the minerals are already there
Yes, fertilizer is a form of nutrients.Specifically, fertilizer acts to put into the soil nutrients necessary for plant and soil well-being. The nutrients can be made and mixed artificially or naturally. Either way, fertilizer is a bundle of nutrients for distribution throughout the soil and intake by plant roots.
If you're asking about soil nutirient depletion; they do it by spreading fertilizer - animal manure - soil nutrients - and by practicing crop rotation.
Put fertilizer in clay soil to make more rich for growing plants
