Why do we need fertilizers?
The current world population of 7.3bn is expected to reach 8.5bn by 2030, 9.7bn in 2050 and 11.2bn in 2100, the report said.
Global food demand will rise proportionally to populations growth and fertilizers are essential in order to meet this demand.
Growing food crops requires soil, water and nutrients. In agriculture, plant nutrients are supplied through soil but soil nutrients deteriorate from continuous cropping. This means that many soils do not provide enough essential nutrients necessary for optimum growth of the crops. This trend is particularly apparent in developing countries with rapid population growth. Evidenced by increasing demand for mineral fertilizers in such regions.
Moreover, crops require different nutrients during different times of their development, and it is important that an appropriate nutrient management programme is formulated to match the crop’s needs. If crops lack any of the essential nutrients, yield and profitability are reduced.
Fertilizers contain at least on plant nutrient and are applied to soil in order to boost soil fertility, and so help to increase the quality of crops and improve yield. moreover, they can be tailored to the need of specific crops to ensure optimal growth.
Soil needs nutrients, farmers need fertilizers, especially good quality fertilizers.
