What is organic fertilizer

1. Organic fertilizer is mainly a substance containing carbon, usually processed from animal and plant waste and plant residues. This processing mainly eliminates some toxic and harmful substances, leaving only a large amount of beneficial substances. Organic fertilizer contains various elements such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, which can provide more comprehensive nutrients for crops. Moreover, the fertility of organic fertilizer is long-lasting, and it can help increase or update the organic matter in the soil, promote the reproduction of microorganisms in the soil, and make the soil more active.

2. There are various types of organic fertilizers, such as animal and plant remains, human and animal manure, etc., which are processed and mixed with soil through fermentation and maturation. For example, in a sealed biogas digester, organic matter decomposes to produce by-products such as biogas.

3. One major difference between organic fertilizer and chemical fertilizer is that organic fertilizer contains a lot of organic matter. Organic fertilizer enters the soil and is decomposed by microorganisms, releasing organic matter for crops to absorb. Chemical fertilizer, on the other hand, must penetrate deep into the soil before it can be effective.
