It is only a legend; natural fertilizers are not complete fertilizers (they doesn't contain phosphorous, potassium, calcium, microelements), the quantities are not sufficient and they are also a great source of pollution.

Why are chemicals better than organic fertilizers?

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.

What is the difference between chemical and organic fertilizer on the growth of plants?

Chemical fertilizers are typically synthesized from inorganic compounds while organic fertilizers are derived from natural sources such as compost, manure, or plant residues. Organic fertilizers provide a slower release of nutrients, improve soil structure, and promote beneficial microbial activity, while chemical fertilizers provide a quick nutrient boost but can lead to nutrient imbalances and soil degradation if overused. Overall, organic fertilizers support long-term soil health and plant growth sustainability.

What is the difference between chemical fertilizers and organic fertilizers?

(1) Organic fertilizers contain a large amount of organic matter, which has a significant effect on soil improvement and fertilization; chemical fertilizers can only provide inorganic nutrients for crops, and long-term application will have adverse effects on the soil and make the soil more barren. (2) The fertility period of organic fertilizer is long; the fertility period of chemical fertilizer is short and strong, which is easy to cause nutrient loss and pollute the environment. (3) Organic fertilizers come from nature, and the fertilizers do not contain chemical synthetic substances. Long-term application can improve the quality of agricultural products; chemical fertilizer is a pure chemical synthetic substance, and improper application will reduce the quality of agricultural products. (4) Organic fertilizers have low nutrient content and require a large amount of application, while chemical fertilizers have high nutrient content and less application amount. (5) Organic fertilizers contain a variety of nutrient elements and are nutritionally balanced; although chemical fertilizers contain a single type of nutrient, long-term use is likely to lead to nutrient disturbances in soil and food (6) Organic fertilizers contain a large number of beneficial microorganisms, which can promote the process of soil biotransformation and are conducive to the continuous improvement of soil fertilizer efficiency; long-term large-scale application of chemical fertilizers will inhibit the activity of soil microorganisms and reduce the ability of soil to adjust automatically. (7) In the organic fertilizer production, as long as it is fully decomposed, the application can improve the drought resistance, disease resistance and insect resistance of crops, and reduce the application of pesticides; long-term application of chemical fertilizers will reduce the immunity of plants. Large amounts of biopesticides are usually required to maintain crop growth, which can easily increase harmful substances in food.
