The Pros and Cons of Conventional Fertilizers

Conventional fertilizers are synthetic or chemically processed substances used to provide essential nutrients to plants for optimal growth. These fertilizers typically contain a combination of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K), which are the primary macronutrients needed by plants in large quantities. Additionally, they may contain secondary nutrients like calcium, magnesium, and sulfur, as well as micronutrients like iron, manganese, zinc, copper, boron, and molybdenum.
