How can you determine the amount of fertilizer to be applied in the soil for plant growth and development?

-
Land should be cared for like oneself, always showing love and appreciation for the soil you cultivate. Avoid overuse and excessive acidity. Fertilizers should be applied in the proper amount and ratio according to the specific needs of the plants.

Once you have obtained the results of your soil sample analysis from a laboratory or government soil department that offers soil examination services, you can proceed to calculate the amount of fertilizer required for your acre of land based on the nutrient recommendations provided by soil scientists.

The primary nutrients necessary for plant growth are nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, often referred to as N-P-K or complete fertilizer. These nutrients are crucial for providing the essential elements needed by plants.

Here are the sample problem for fertilizer computation:
A rice field experiment calls for the application of 140-100-130. How many kilogram of 14-14-14,17-0-17 and urea can applied to 625 square meter ?

Write the Given:
Recommended Rate/Nutrient Requirements 
140-100-130
Fertilizer to be Applied:
Complete fertilizer (14-14-14)
17-0-17
Urea (46-0-0)

Formula:                              

For Kilogram
For Bag 
To Get Recommended Rate For Every Fertilizers, You will subtract it to the Recommended Fertilizer until it become zero.
Note: that the subtrahend will depend to the fertilizer given.

  140-100-130
- 100-100-100  Recommended Rate For 14-14-14
----------------
   40 - 0 - 30
-  30 - 0- 30     Recommended Rate For  17-0-17
----------------
   10 - 0 - 0
-  10 - 0 - 0      Recommended Rate For Urea
---------------
      0 - 0 - 0

Then Compute all Fertilizer one by one depend to their Recommended rate by substitution to this Formula:

                                          100
Weight of 14-14-14 = ---------------
                                          .14

Weight of 14-14-14 =  714.29kg/ha

To answer the question how many kilogram of fertilizer will be applied to 625 square meter, use this Formula:



       625 square meter  X 714.29kg
x = --------------------------------------------
                  10,000 square meter

                 446,431.25 kg
x=---------------------------------------------
                      10,000 

x= 44.64 Kg

44.64 Kg of Complete Fertilizer for 625 Square meter.

DO IT TO THE 17-0-17 AND UREA

-

I sa sa mga factors na nakatutulong sa maayos na paglaki ng manok ay ang tamang sukat ng kulungan. Sa mga nag-aalaga ng manok pansabong at native na manok kadalasang binabaliwala na natin ang sukat at laki ng kulungan. Pero sa mga nagbabalak tumayo ng sariling poultry farm, this is the best first thing to know. Why? Maximizing the space we have is the best for the business para hindi masayang yong investment natin sa lupa. Bakit nga ba natin kailangan malaman ang tamang sukat sa kulungan ng manok? Halimbawa na lamang kung ikaw ay nagpagawa ng isang poultry house, kung hindi mo ito alam pwede kang malugi. Kasi possible kung ang capacity pala ng building mo ay kaya ang 10,000 heads of broiler and then you just raise only 8,000 heads, sayang pa din ang 2,000 heads na dapat ay magiging kita mo na. Just wise thinker, that’s why I wanna share this thing to those who are willing to put up a poultry farm.  Ito ang tamang sukat, kailangan at least 0.75 sq. ft to 1 sq. ft ang sukat na pag...
