Crab shell biowaste hydroxyapatite as inert material for gradual releaser of crop nutrients for sustainable food production
Purpose Aggressive use of crop fertilizer during food production caused an overburden in the environment. Gradual release of crop nutrients from the fertilizer could decrease the massive utilization of fertilizer. The advantages are two folds, cheaper cost, and environmentally friendly crop production. Method Slow-release fertilizer was prepared by encapsulating hydroxyapatite (HA) with a single fertilizer. […]
