Composition: Decomposed organic matter. Benefits: Improves soil structure, water retention, and microbial activity. Application guidelines: Apply 1-3 inches on topsoil and mix lightly.

Composition: Often made from rock phosphate treated with sulfuric acid to create phosphoric acid or superphosphate. Benefits: Encourages root development. Application guidelines: Often applied at planting time, beneath the seed placement.

Composition: Common forms include urea ($CH_4N_2O$), ammonium nitrate ($NH_4NO_3$), and ammonium sulfate (($NH_4)_2SO_4$). Benefits: Promotes leaf growth. Application guidelines: Apply according to soil test recommendations, often before planting.

Composition: Derived from plant or animal matter, examples include bone meal, blood meal. Benefits: Improves soil fertility and microbial life. Application guidelines: Apply according to the type of organic fertilizer and crop requirement.

Composition: Potassium chloride ($KCl$), potassium sulfate ($K_2SO_4$). Benefits: Helps with plant stress resistance and strengthens cell walls. Application guidelines: Apply based on soil test, usually before planting.

Composition: Coated or encapsulated nutrient sources that release over time. Benefits: Reduces the frequency of applications, less risk of nutrient leaching. Application guidelines: Follow label instructions; less frequent applications needed.

Composition: Contains essential elements like iron, manganese, zinc, copper, molybdenum, boron. Benefits: Prevents micronutrient deficiencies. Application guidelines: Apply in small quantities; foliar application is common.

Composition: Nutrients dissolved in water, usually for quick uptake. Benefits: Fast-acting, precise application. Application guidelines: Apply directly to the foliage or root zone; careful not to over-apply and cause damage.

Composition: Animal waste products. Benefits: Provides many nutrients and organic matter. Application guidelines: Should be well-composted to avoid burning plants; apply during the off-season to allow nutrients to break down.
