It helps increase the efficiency of providing plant nutrients and reduce the cost of fertilizer use. It should be used according to the needs of the plants, the characteristics of the area, the fertility of the soil, the planting system, the management techniques and the weather conditions as follows:
1). Right fertilizer formula and type Apply fertilizers according to the type and formula that is appropriate for the needs of the plants, as assessed by soil analysis.
2). Right dosage Add nutrients to the soil to meet the needs of plants and to be consistent with soil fertility, as assessed by soil analysis.
3). Right time Fertilize at the right time according to the growth stage of the plant. Plants have different nutrient requirements and quantities at each stage. Also, the time to fertilize should be when the soil is moist, such as in the morning or after rain, which will help increase the efficiency of fertilizer use.
4). Right place Apply fertilizer near the root system, where plants can absorb nutrients best. Choose fertilizer application methods and locations that allow plants to easily use nutrients. Applying fertilizer in small amounts but frequently and burying fertilizer will help reduce the loss of nutrients from fertilizer.
