Tomatoes are a globally cultivated and popular vegetable. The output quality of tomatoes significantly influenced by the use organic fertilizers. It was discovered that fertilizers increase tomato productivity improve fruit quality. influence on yield is shown to be complex dependent soil matter, total nitrogen, kinds, other variables. In this review paper, we evaluated 769 data sets from 107 r...

Abstract Nitrate pollution of ground and surface water bodies all over the world is generally linked with continually increasing global fertilizer nitrogen (N) use. But after 1990, more N consumption in developing countries especially East South Asia than industrialized nations North America Europe, nitrate freshwaters now increasingly becoming a pervasive problem. In this review it has been at...

Tracking information about fertilizers consumption in the world is very important since they are used to produce agriculture commodities. Brazil consumes a large amount of fertilizers due to its large-scale agriculture fields. Most of these fertilizers are currently imported. The analysis of consumption of major fertilizers, such as Nitrogen-Phosphorus-Potassium (NPK), Sulfur, Phosphate Rock, P...

The source and quantity of nutrients available to plants can affect the quality of leafy herbs. A study was conducted to compare quality of Cosmos caudatus in response to rates of organic and mineral-based fertilizers. Organic based fertilizer GOBI (8% N:8% P₂O₅:8% K₂O) and inorganic fertilizer (15% N, 15% P₂O₅, 15% K₂O) were evaluated based on N element rates at 0, 30, 60, 90, 120 kg h⁻¹. Appl...

The content of nitrates and nitrites in agricultural products has been assessed as an indicator of the quality of the products and has important health influences 1. Changes in patterns of agricultural practice, food processing and industrialization have impacted accumulation of nitrates/nitrites in the environment. Intensive farming practice has resulted in an increasing use of nitrogen-based ...

At the end of November 1914 Lord Moulton (1844-1921) became the director of explosives production in the War Office. A 70-year-old jurist may seem an extraordinary choice, but he was an extraordinary man. He was Senior Wrangler at Cambridge, was elected to the Royal Society for research on electricity, and learned about chemistry as a barrister for dye and explosives manufacturers. He assembled...

We measure the diffuse reflection spectrum of solid samples such as explosives (TNT, RDX, PETN), fertilizers (ammonium nitrate, urea), and paints (automotive and military grade) at a stand-off distance of 5 m using a mid-infrared supercontinuum light source with 3.9 W average output power. The output spectrum extends from 750-4300 nm, and it is generated by nonlinear spectral broadening in a 9 ...

In connection with a study at the Fixed Nitrogen Research Laboratory on the possible transformation products of cyanamid, there was obtained a number of materials and mixtures concerning which there is either very little known, or concerning which there is still some doubt as to their fertilizing value. Thus, in the preparation of urephos, a product was obtained in which approximately 55 per ce...
