Fertilizer Computation Tutorial

A rice field experiment calls for the application of 140-100-130. How many kilogram of 14-14-14,17-0-17 and urea can applied to 625 square meter ?






Write the Given:
Recommended Rate/Nutrient Requirements 
140-100-130
Fertilizer to be Applied:
Complete fertilizer (14-14-14)
17-0-17
Urea (46-0-0)

Formula:                              

For Kilogram
For Bag 
To Get Recommended Rate For Every Fertilizers, You will subtract it to the Recommended Fertilizer until it become zero.
Note: that the subtrahend will depend to the fertilizer given.

  140-100-130
- 100-100-100  Recommended Rate For 14-14-14
----------------
   40 - 0 - 30
-  30 - 0- 30     Recommended Rate For  17-0-17
----------------
   10 - 0 - 0
-  10 - 0 - 0      Recommended Rate For Urea
---------------
   -      -    -




Then Compute all Fertilizer one by one depend to their Recommended rate by substitution to the given Formula:

                                          100
Weight of 14-14-14 = ---------------
                                          .14

Weight of 14-14-14 =  714.29kg/ha

To answer the question how many kilogram of fertilizer will be applied to 625 square meter, use this Formula:



       625 square meter  X 714.29kg
x = --------------------------------------------
                  10,000 square meter

                 446,431.25 kg
x=---------------------------------------------
                      10,000 

x= 44.64 Kg

44.64 Kg of Complete Fertilizer for 625 Square meter.

DO IT TO THE 17-0-17 AND UREA
