The role of fertilizers in food production is usually underestimated even by those selling or using the products. Putting it very simply, fertilizers replace the nutrients that crops remove from the soil. Without the addition of fertilizers crop yields would be significantly reduced.
Farm minerals constitute a group of complete, perfectly balanced products used for feed production by home mixers.
The perfect balance of nutrients – vitamins and trace elements and macro minerals, amino acids, innovative feed additives – is the basis for optimal animal health and productivity.
Farm mixtures are produced for various animal species, and within a given species for various technological groups of animals.

Fertilizers are usually declared with the content of the three major nutrients N, P and K (e.g. 10 (N), 26 (K), 10 (P)) but fertilizer declarations do not always reflect the form in which a nutrient is taken up by plants, or the form that is present in the fertilizer. For example, potassium often is declared as K2O and phosphorus as P2O5 though these are neither present in fertilizers nor taken up by plants.

---|---|---|---|
Nitrogen | (N) | NH4+, NO3– | N |
Phosphorus | (P) | H2PO4–, HPO42 – | P or P2O5 |
Potassium | (K) | K+ | K or K2O |
Sulphur | (S) | SO42- | S or SO3 |
Calcium | (Ca) | Ca2+ | Ca or CaO |
Magnesium | (Mg) | Mg2+ | Mg or MgO |
Iron | (Fe) | Fe2+ | Fe |
Manganese | (Mn) | Mn2+ | Mn |
Zinc | (Zn) | Zn2+ | Zn |
Boron | (B) | H3BO3 | B |
Copper | (Cu) | Cu2+ | Cu |
