Abstract: A phosphate fertilizer as described contains a blend of finely ground sulfur component, swelling agent and rock phosphate (for example, apatite). Preferably, the swelling agent is bentonite. The sulfur component, swelling agent and rock phosphate raw materials are preferably present as particles of less than about 500? in size, more preferably between about 400-200?, but more than 100?. The sulfur component and swelling agent may be combined together before sizing as a composition of about 85 wt % sulfur sublimed onto/into or melted together with about 15 wt % bentonite. These components are present in the phosphate fertilizer at about 10 wt % for the sulfur, at about 5 wt % for the swelling agent and about 80 wt % for the rock phosphate. In addition, when the blend is pelletized, a granulation aid, like lignin, molasses, etc., is also present at about 5 wt % of the blend.
Abstract: A particulate fertilizer coating composition or a coated fertilizer containing a solid acidic particulate material and a solid basic particulate material. The coating composition and coated fertilizer are each stable, chemical compatible with other fertilizers, and/or are abrasion resistant.

Abstract: A lubricated agricultural mixture and method(s) of use thereof is described. Embodiments of the lubricated agricultural mixture can include a carbon source, a fertilizer, a binder, and a hydrogel. The lubricated agricultural mixture can be formed into tablets, granules, and wafers. The different forms of the lubricated agricultural mixture can be implemented in various situations. For instance, the table form can be distributed via machinery such that the carbon source acts as a lubricant for the machinery to minimize wear on the machinery.
Abstract: A method for preparing an organic manganese fertilizer for engineering wound soil remediation includes a step of: effectively compounding chitin oligosaccharide or/and wormcast or/and silkworm excrement, water or/and hydrogen peroxide, an organic manganese element solution, polysorbate and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose under certain conditions. The present invention has significant effects on improving physical and chemical properties of engineering wound soil, enhancing availability of manganese element in the soil, preventing plants from physiological diseases caused by lack of manganese, and promoting growth and development of the plants.
Abstract: The present application relates to a closed container containing ammonium nitrate (AN) particles in an amount of 91 to 99.75 weight % and desiccant in an amount of 0.25 and 9 weight %, wherein the AN particles have a water content of between 0 and 0.7 weight %, and the desiccant particles comprise between 50 and 95 weight % of AN and between 5 and 50 weight % of magnesium nitrate dispersed in the AN. The application furthermore relates to a method for producing of ammonium nitrate particles that are stored in a closed container and having improved anti-caking properties.
Abstract: The present invention provides organic slow-acting fertilizer using psyllium seed husk and a method for producing the same. Macroelements or secondary elements selected from 12 essential nutrient elements (N, P, K, Ca, Mg, S, Fe, Mn, Cu, B, Mo, and Zn) for edible plants are extracted from each of oil cake (collectively referring to residue remaining after extraction of vegetable oil, and including soybean oil cake, palm oil cake, etc.), blood meal (livestock blood), dead fish or bonefish-containing by-products, bone meal, Dead Sea mineral, egg shell, seashell, oystershell, natural gypsum, dolomite, phyllite, and natural salt, by a predetermined extraction process, and are impregnated in larger amounts into a porous material such as zeolite, and organic fertilizers are produced in the form of psyllium seed husk-bound grains for more rapid and effective impregnation so that suitable proportions of element fertilizers can be supplied to each type of plant.
