Phosphorus Fertilizer

Phosphorus fertilizer is high used fertilizer due to its high nutrients capacity and its salient physical properties which helps in root and seed development and in the plant maturation process. Farmers used phosphorus fertilizers in the wide production of grains like Wheat, Barley, and Vegetables.

Potassium Fertilizer
