Which is Better? Organic Fertilizer or Chemical Fertilizer The use of fertilizer must be something that becomes such a necessary in agricultural activities. Some farmers use fertilizers to make their land full of substances like nitrogen, potassium, phosphorus, etc that can help plant growth. Many types of fertilizers are provided to fulfill the nutritional needs of different plants. Such as chemical fertilizer is needed to grow plants in short time, although it is not contains organic materials. This is different cases with some farmers that prefer use organic fertilizers due to the fact that organic fertilizers has long time effect for plant growth. Regardless of that, it will be more explain about the good and bad side impact of both fertilizers. Commonly, farmers usually use chemical fertilizers rather than organic ones. They choose it because the chemical fertilizers have more benefit. Such as they−farmers have no worries about where they can find the chemical fertilizers due to the fact that chemical fertilizers now can be found in agricultural shop. On the other side, organic fertilizers more hard to find because the farmers have to find it by theirself. Even some farmers prefer to make it rather than to use chemical fertilizers. Beside that, from the distribution, chemical fertilizers easily to bring rather than the organic ones. So, these are something that makes farmers more like to use chemical fertilizers rather than the organic. It is right that chemical fertilizers give more advantages. But some farmers still on their way for keeping use the organic fertilizers. In my point of view, there is still a few farmers that keeping their rules due to the fact that farmers always use it for a long time. Although the organic has long time effect, but they are still using it. It can be accepted because they are also have cattles, so i think they use the cattles dung to make the organic fertilizers. As we know, if we use the organic ones, it is less of toxic because of the chemical substances and salts that can makes our plant be dead. Beside that, the organics are environmentally friendly, biodegredable, and sustainable. We can make it by ourself from the falling leaves and the remaining parts of the plant.

Both of them, chemical fertilizers and organic fertilizers has their own benefit and disadvantages. It also be known that farmers are like to use it alternately. Since the organics have slow-release to the land, they keep using it in early planting. Meanwhile, the chemical fertilizers usually use to fulfill the spesific nutriotional that needed by plants. Urea for nitrogen, SP-36 for phosporus, and KCl for potassium. It is the best way i think, to manage the use of chemical or the organic fertilizers. As the nutritional for the plants are fulfilled and it is not too much, i think that is the best choices. Although we still debate about which is better between the chemical and organic fertilizers, it is wiser if we can use both of them by managing its usage.
