Plant nutrition refers to the need for essential chemical elements and compounds for plant growth and the steps necessary for plant growth and tissue change. Fertilizer is therefore a mixture of nutrients that plants need to support their growth and to grow healthily. Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P) and Potassium (K), commonly known as a mixture of NPKs, are the key nutrients in fertilizers and help plants to grow healthily. Fertilizers are therefore an important source of plant nutrition and are part of good agricultural practices.
