Water-soluble fertilizers are applied to the crops during irrigation. The major advantage of using them is that farmers can regulate the concentrations of the nutrients according to the needs of a particular crop. Farmers often choose a fertilizer concentration and apply it at every watering. This process is generally known as fertigation or continuous liquid feeding (CLF).
Technavio’s analysts forecast the global water-soluble fertilizers market to grow at a CAGR of 5.25% during the period 2016-2020.
