    Simply put, organically sourced nutrients and organic fertilizer come from natural sources such as manure, animal processing bioproducts, consumer waste, and plant biomass. The nutrients contained within these sources is broken down via a range of biological processes, and become available for plant growth. The diversity of living bacteria, microorganisms, and mycorrhizal fungi within organically sources fertilizers aids in nutrient uptake and plant health.

    Synthetic fertilizers are manufactured nutrients such as ammonium nitrate (N), ammonium phosphate (P), and potassium sulfate (K). Chemical fertilizer solutions are typically denoted by various NPK values. It is important to note that many chemical fertilizers on the market may lack appropriate levels of micronutrients, though these can be dosed into growing systems as additives or supplements. Unlike the biologically active fertilizers produced by the INTAG patented biodigestion process, chemical fertilizers are typically sterile solutions, devoid of beneficial microbes, bacteria, and fungi.

    The difference between Organic and Chemical Fertilizers

    Chemical fertilizer is a fertilizer composed of non-organic cultivated elements that stimulate the growth of crops. They consist of chemical nutritional elements that are artificially extracted. Chemical fertilizers are uniform and constant in composition and work faster than organic fertilizers because they almost immediately dissolve in water. However, they work for a short time. That’s why they cannot provide plants with the necessary nutrition for a long time. Also, no organic material is added to the soil, so the soil life will not be enriched or stimulated. Because chemical fertilizers are very salty, they extract the moisture from the soil.

    Organic Fertilizers

    Organic fertilizers can play a role if you want to grow crops in a more sustainable way. They have several advantages over chemical fertilizers. Organic fertilizers are made out of natural materials that are extracted from animal or vegetable material. Therefore, this type of fertilizer is more environmentally friendly, but it also takes more time for the nutrients of these fertilizers to reach the plant. This seems to be a disadvantage, but because of the gradual release of the nutrients the risk of over-fertilization is very small in contrast to chemical fertilizers.

    But organic fertilizers have advantages. But they may cost more than chemical, or inorganic fertilizers, because they are less concentrated, supplying fewer nutrients pound for pound. Since many chemical/inorganic fertilizers are concentrated and very soluble, it’s easier to apply too much and damage your plants.

    Chemical fertilizers are produced synthetically from inorganic materials. Organic fertilizers are substances that are derived from the remains or by products of organisms. Organic fertilizers depend upon the microorganisms found in soil to break them down and release the essential nutrients.
