Why are manure and fertilizers used in fields?
Manures and fertilizers are used in fields to enrich the soil with the required nutrients, improve fertility of the soil and crop yield and quality. Manure helps in enriching the soil with organic matter and nutrients. This improves the fertility and structure of the soil. On the other hand, fertilizers ensure a healthy growth and development in plants. They are a good source of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. A balanced combination of manures and fertilizers in the soil should be used, to get an optimum yield.
