positive sides of fertilsers
Answers
Fertilizer comes in many forms, from chemical products to old grass clippings. By providing nutrients like nitrogen, fertilizers help plants thrive despite the threat of weeds and disease. Organic fertilizers, like manure, improve the fertility of soil by feeding microorganisms in the soil, reducing erosion and keeping soil well hydrated. Grass clippings, scattered on the lawn, are a form of fertilizer that provides valuable phosphorus, nitrogen and potassium and can be had for free by mowing the lawn.
