Whether you’re growing vegetables in your home garden or growing crops for a living, it’s important to look at the soil as a living organism. The difference between organic fertilizers and chemical fertilizers is; organic fertilizers sustain and improves the soil while chemical fertilizers harms and even destroys the soil.
There are harmful acids in chemical fertilizers, such as hydrochloric and sulfuric acids.
There are several adverse effects of these acids,
These acids dissolve the materials (cement) that hold together rock particles, once destroyed the surface soil compacts, making it difficult for rain to enter the soil.
These acids also negatively affects the pH in the soil, which in turn alters which microorganism are able to live in the soil. These microorganisms are necessary for a healthy soil and preventing plant diseases.
Chemical fertilizers also dissolve quickly into the soil, much of the fertilizer is leached away into the water, not even being absorbed by the plant. Chemical fertilizer leaves the plant undernourished, soil conditions are compromised and money is wasted, though you may see short term results, over time the ground water, soil and our health are compromised.
Organic fertilizers enhance the soil by implementing slow release nutrients to the plants, help retain moisture in the soil, averting ‘water run off’, boosts nutrients to the plant, and produces vegetables and fruits that just taste better!
