The ability to absorb moisture is what is meant by the hygroscopicity of fertilizer materials.

Specifically, the moisture absorption is an important characteristics of fertilizers. Everything must be taken in dissolved form by plant roots. Fertilizer materials that cannot absorb moisture or that have limited atmospheric or soil moisture to absorb will not be taken in by plant roots and in fact cause damage just by being located in undissolved form near plant underground body parts.

What are the methods of granulation?

There are two types of granulation they are Wet Granulation and Dry Granulation.Wet granulation and dry granulation depends on the type of fertilizer granulators and whether adding water during granulation.In general, Roll Extrusion Granulator(Azeus Fertilizer Machinery) is dry granulation machine. It requires moisture of raw materials less than 40% and no water added during granulation. So, it's compound fertilizer granules are also dry, in long-stick shape.But, as for New-type Granulator(organic fertilizer by Azeus Fertilizer Machinery) and Pan Granulator (both organic and compound fertilizer), with required a low moisture of raw materials, water must be add during granulation. Or, the fertilizer granulation will fail.
