The answer is in the translation of NPK and what that means to plants. NPK is an abbreviation for nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium, the three main nutrients that stimulate plant growth.
The N of NPK relates to nitrogen, the primary nutrient that stimulates the growth of leaf and stem. Turf grass loves nitrogen because it's nothing but leaf and stem. Fertilizers blended for this purpose always have a very high nitrogen content and low phosphorous and potassium counts. If the "nitrates" that you refer to are a purely nitrogen fertilizer such as Urea which is 46-0-0, then read on.
The P and K of this formula indicate the amount of phosphorous and potassium the fertilizer contains. These nutrients stimulate roots, flowers and fruits. Formulas designed to stimulate flowering or fruit producition will have higher percentages of these nutrients along with the nitrogen.
Therefore a balanced fertilizer should have all these nutrients to function well with a wide range of garden plants.
Nitrogen fixing bacteria make nitrates available for plants to use.
Yes. Lightning provides the intense energy needed to combine atmospheric nitrogen and oxygen into nitrates. The rain then carries these nitrates down to the earth's surface enriching the soil. Acting as a fertilizer, nitrates in an indirect way helps make the grass green.
Nitrogen. Bacteria can convert or "fix" insoluable Nitrites into soluable Nitrates, which plants can absorb
No, endocytosis is the storing of energy as opposed to exocytosis which is the use of energy.
Although the air is made up of about 70% nitrogen, plants cannot use nitrogen in this N2 form. Nitrogen fixing bacteria change nitrogen into the form of soluble nitrates so that plants can use it. Other bacteria, known as de-nitrifying bacteria, change nitrates back into N2, which completes the nitrogen cycle. Some nitrifying bacteria lives in the roots of legumes, and do the same job.
nitrates are chemically salts. nitrates Can be used as fertilizers.
As a fertiliser and to generate gas for energy.
Compost
We could use it to produce electricity but we don't. We do use it most commonly in fertiliser.
Bacteria is the the most responsible organism that converts nitrogen into nitrates. Which plants can then use.
no peole use it on roses as it is a good fertiliser
Because it helps boost growth and productivity of a crop.
Yes you can use it as a fertiliser.
Nitrogen fixing bacteria make nitrates available for plants to use.
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.
There is no way to answer that question. It depends on the soil. The idea of a fertiliser is to add whatever is missing to the soil in each particular area. Farmers often use NPK (N=nitrogen P=phosphorus K=potassium) but often they have to add extra things like Iron and other metals. If you plant seed in iron rich soil this wouldn't help.
Mainly Plant fertilisers, but also for building bombs.
