Larger amounts of the macro-nutrients nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca) and sulphur (S) are required compared with levels of micro-nutrients including zinc (Zn), iron (Fe), boron (B), manganese (Mn), molybdenum (Mo), copper (Cu) and chlorine (Cl).įertilisers containing macro- and/or micro-nutrients are applied to maximise economic yield of commercial crops. Commercial crops usually require nutrients in addition to those found in the soil. ![]()
