Introduction:
| The cost of fertilizer
is one of the most important expenses for many farmers
and gardeners. Adding fertilizer to soil will substitute
for the nutrients that are consumed by plants or that
are washed away by rain. |
 |
There are many different types
of fertilizers; however, in general you can divide them into two
main categories of organic and inorganic fertilizers. To have a
cost effective and competitive product farmers have to decide
which fertilizer is best for them. In this project we will
compare an organic fertilizer with an inorganic fertilizer to
see which one gives farmers a better bang for their buck. (or
which one is more cost effective).

Project
description:
In this project you will
compare an organic fertilizer with an inorganic fertilizer and
compare their productivity per unit of investment.
You will need at least 4 weeks time for your preparation and
plant growth experiments. If you are doing this experiment in a
cold weather environment, you will need to do your experiments
indoors and use artificial light. |
