What fertilizer are you applying onto your field? Do you know that many planters have neglected Phosphate fertilizer as they think it is not as important as other nutrients?
What role does Phosphate (the P nutrient) play in the health of your plant? Do you know the difference between the source of the rock phosphate that you buy? What do terms like total P2O5, citric solubility, reactive rock phosphate, water soluble phosphate, particle size and all this other words mean to you?
When you buy compound fertilizer, do you know what type of Phosphate source is used as the raw material? Which number represents the P source in a compound formula of 12-12-17-2?
If you are a little unsure, perhaps you can do a Google search to find out some of this terms. If you are like me, you will find that a lot of material out in the web are too scientific and rather overwhelming. Too much data and numbers if you ask me. They are important though. What you need then is someone to show you what this numbers mean.
