What is fertilizer
Fertilizer is food that is added to soil to improve plant growth and yield. It provides nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, which are essential for their development.
Fertilizers are used in agriculture, gardening, landscaping, and other areas to help increase crop production and plant health.
Explanation of the numbers on our fertilizer bags
1Er figure = Nitrogen. Plants grow rapidly and give them a dark green color. It controls the degree of use of other elements by the plant and nourishes microorganisms with organic materials that have a low content of this element.
2E figure = Phosphorus. Essential for plant growth Needed for respiration, photosynthesis, and many other vital processes. One of the most interesting aspects is its great mobility in the plant.
3E figure = Potassium. Plays an essential role in the formation, movement, and storage of sugars, as well as in nitrogen metabolism and protein production. Potassium plays an important role in maintaining an adequate level of water in the plant. This is essential for the proper functioning of photosynthesis and metabolism processes.
The benefits of fertilization in an era of biodiversity!
Fertilization is more than just providing nutrients that are essential for your lawn to grow. It also plays a crucial role in improving microbial life, organic matter, and soil structure, thereby increasing soil fertility. By promoting denser foliage growth through appropriate management, fertilization supports grasscycling, which partially meets the nutritional needs of the lawn in a sustainable manner.
This cycle of “fertilisation-grasscycling” practices is fundamental for sustainable lawns, as it reinforces the autonomy of plant cover. To optimize these benefits, it is essential that fertilization is adapted to the nutritional needs and growth of the lawn, in a sustainable approach.
Fertilizer is for me if:
- You want to keep your grass healthy.
- By increasing the density of the grass, insects and unwanted grasses have more difficulty establishing themselves.
