About

Compound NPK fertilizer provides a mix of nutrients that can be tailored to a specific plant's nutritional needs, taking into account soil and climatic conditions. 

Compound fertilizers contain at least two of the three main plant nutrients: nitrogen (N), phosphate (P) and potassium (K), which together is often referred to as NPK fertilizer. Plants require all three of these main nutrients to grow. Compound fertilizers produced through a physical mixing of granule types (N, P, K) are called blended fertilizers, while those produced through chemical processes combining the various nutrients into a single granule, allowing for more uniform application, are called homogeneous fertilizers. 

 Compound fertilizers may be treated to make them slow-release, either in blended or homogenous forms. As a result, slow-release fertilizers may be single nutrient, such as SCU (sulfur coated urea, urea being a source of nitrogen), or compound. While these three elements only scratch the surface of healthy plant nutrition and growth, they are the main nutrients required in the development of healthy, productive plants.
