Question

different between compost and fertilizer
​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Compost contains similar nutrients to that found in fertiliser, but it's stored in organic matter. When you add fertiliser to the ground, the nutrients are available to the plant instantly. Compost, on the other hand, is a much slower release of nutrients, taking days/weeks/months to fully expel its nutrients.

Answer 2

Explanation:

a mixture of dead plants, old food, etc. that is added to soil to help plants grow is called compost

a natural or chemical substance that is put on land or soil to make plants grow better is called fertilizer
