Nitrogen, phosphorus potassium (NPK)

NPK Fertilizer; Compound Fertilizer; Complex Fertilizer; Complete Fertilizer

CAS NA

Chemical Formula NA

Molecular Weight Not applicable (mixture of compounds)

Nitrogen, phosphorus potassium (NPK) are essential macronutrients in fertilizers that support plant growth. Nitrogen promotes leafy growth, phosphorus aids in root and flower development, and potassium enhances overall plant health and resistance. NPK ratios are key in agriculture and gardening for balanced crop nutrition.

Industrial Uses

1: Agrochemicals

  • Primary Fertilizer in Crop Production: NPK fertilizers are widely used to boost the yield of cereal crops (wheat, rice, maize), oilseeds, pulses, and vegetables. Different NPK ratios are tailored to the crop and soil type to maximize growth and productivity.
  • Soil Replenishment & Nutrient Balance: In intensive farming systems, soil nutrients are quickly depleted. NPK fertilizers help replenish essential nutrients, improving soil fertility and ensuring sustainable crop cycles.
  • Precision Farming & Site-Specific Application: Advanced NPK formulations are used in GPS-enabled precision agriculture to deliver nutrients exactly where and when needed, minimizing waste and maximizing uptake.
  • Component in Granular and Liquid Fertilizers: The NPK blend is used as the core active ingredient in many granular, water-soluble, and foliar fertilizers manufactured and distributed globally.
  • Coating & Stabilized Fertilizer Technology: Used in slow-release formulations (e.g., polymer-coated NPK) that improve nutrient use efficiency and reduce environmental loss.
