Controlled Release Encapsulated Fertilizers & their applications - Richa Kothari - Bog

This book presents a ¿CONTROLLED RELEASE ENCAPSULATED FERTILIZERS:PREPARTATION AND SPECTROSCOPIC CHARECTRIZATION¿ derived from urea , potash, sodium alginate, calcium chloride. All these two fertilizers get immobilized in sodium alginate by the help of calcium chloride, the characterization of Urea and Potash by UV and FT-IR shows that urea and potash fertilizers get immobilized in beads of urea and potash which is prepared by the help of sodium alginate and calcium chloride. The determination of soil content indicates that fertilizers which get immobilized in the beads prepared are slowly releasing fertilizers to the soil and it is proved by characterization of soil by UV. So from the above method it can be concluded that this method can be used for manufacturing of fertilizers and after preparation of encapsulated fertilizers it will increase the fertility of soil by applying in less amount and it will help farmers to save their money, and lot of farmer will want to cultivate more land which will be a very good sign for our country.
