| Abstract | Before selecting raw materials for fertilizer bulk blending, it is important to determine the ingredients, the quantities required for each raw material, and the chemical and physical compatibility of the raw materials. While selecting ingredients, knowing that each fertilizer formula contains specific nutrients is essential. For example, NPK fertilizer consists of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. The nutrient concentration can then be analyzed, and options can be evaluated. When selecting suppliers of raw materials for bulk blending, organizations should consider the availability of raw materials, the cost of materials without transport, and the availability of more suppliers when they want to produce more. | |
