But, few have used the products that are used to thrive and develop faster. These products are known as fertilizers that are substances that contain nutrients that help plants to develop their development.
The use of these fertilizers dates back to ancient times, when farmers provided the soil with nutrients empirically.

Organic fertilizers: are those that come from animals or vegetables. The fertilizers of animal origin are those that come from slaughterhouses and / or fish merchants that are excellent, because their slow decomposition enriches the small humus that contains the soil where the sowing is. The resources of vegetal origin are the green residues that are composted or not in those that are great amount of elements like: nitrogen, phosphorus and calcium. This is the oldest practice in the use of fertilizers.

The simple fertilizer is that composed of a single nutrient, these can be nitrogen, phosphate, potassium. The compound fertilizer is that the formula contains two or more nutrients that can be found among them: nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium; one of the following secondary nutrients is present: calcium, magnesium and sulfur or micronutrients boron, copper, iron, manganese, molybdenum and / or zinc which are essential for the growth of the plants.
