How to Calculate Fertilizer for Any Crop Smart Farming Begins with Smart InputsFertilizer application isn’t guesswork—it's a science! To maximize yield while minimizing waste, you need to calculate the right dose based on: Crop nutrient requirement Target yield Soil test report Nutrient content in the fertilizer Here’s the Simple Formula:Required Fertilizer (kg/ha) = (Recommended Nutrient Dose / % Nutrient in Fertilizer) × 100Let’s break it down with an example for Wheat (per hectare): Recommended Dose:• Nitrogen (N): 120 kg• Phosphorus (P₂O₅): 60 kg• Potassium (K₂O): 40 kg Using:• Urea (46% N)• DAP (18% N, 46% P₂O₅)• MOP (60% K₂O) DAP for P₂O₅:60 / 46 × 100 = 130 kg DAP(NOTE: This gives 23.4 kg N too) Urea for remaining N:(120 - 23.4) / 46 × 100 = 209 kg Urea MOP for K₂O:40 / 60 × 100 = 67 kg MOP Final Fertilizer Requirement (per ha): Urea: 209 kg DAP: 130 kg MOP: 67 kg Tips for Success: Split Nitrogen into 2-3 applications Integrate organic matter (FYM, compost) Test soil every season Ensure proper irrigation for nutrient uptake.https://t.me/plantprotectionTAU
