Crop nutrition industry primarily consists fertilizers (chemical, organic and bio-fertilizers) and bio-stimulants. Overview and types of fertilizers: Fertilizer is any material of natural or synthetic origin that is applied to plant tissues or soil to supply plant nutrients. For most modern agricultural practices, fertilization focuses on three main macro nutrients: Nitrogen , Phosphorous and Potassium. Fertilizers are mainly classified as - i. Chemical fertilizers ii. Organic fertilizers iii. Biofertilizers. Overview and key types of bio-fertilizers: As per several studies conducted by the Centre of Science & Environment, crops no longer respond to chemical fertilizers as they used to. The fertilizer response ratio used to be 13.4 in 1970 which further reduced to 2.7 by 2015. Due to heavy subsidies provided for nitrogen, the nitrogen-phosphorous-potassium ratio has been skewed towards nitrogen. However, the continuous use of nitrogenous fertilizers adversely affected the soil health in India. The crops displayed symptoms in deficiencies of macro and micro nutrients. This became a growing concern and led to the search foralternative non-chemical choiceswhich included biofertilizers and organic fertilizers. Bio fertilizers contain microbes, that enhance plant nutrition or increase nutrient availability in soils. E.g. azospirillum, rhizobium, etc. They are regulated under the Fertilizer Control Order.
