Controlled Release Encapsulated Fertilizers & their applications

Más información sobre el libro

The book details a novel method for creating controlled-release encapsulated fertilizers using urea and potash, immobilized in sodium alginate with calcium chloride. Spectroscopic characterization through UV and FT-IR confirms the successful encapsulation of these fertilizers in beads, which release nutrients slowly into the soil. This innovative approach not only enhances soil fertility with reduced fertilizer application but also offers economic benefits to farmers, encouraging increased agricultural productivity and contributing positively to the economy.
