Organic compound fertilizers are ready for delivery.
JANG JONG HO / THE PYONGYANG TIMES
Developed by the researchers of the Academy of Agricultural Science and technicians of the factory, the agent is another great achievement in making farming science-based.
Growing of rice seedlings with the help of this agent in the form of powder which includes nutritive substances needed for growth of rice seedlings is much more effective than that for the previous cold-bed rice seedlings.
It reduces the area of rice-seedling beds to one fifth while shortening the growth time and needs only one fourth of fertilizer and other materials and manpower without using vinyl sheet. As seedlings are healthy, it helps increase per-hectare grain yield.
Last year it was introduced into cooperative farms across the country, winning popularity with the users.
The factory also produces organic compound fertilizer and amino acid compound nutritive solution.
The organic compound fertilizer is made by comprehensively treating mud from the Pothong River bottom, deposit of sewage treatment plants and soot.
It is very effective in the growth of agricultural crops and afforestation and greening. As it is made with mud, which is rich in content of humus necessary for crop cultivation and nitrogen, potassium and other elements, as the major raw material, it is 1.5-2 times more effective than chemical fertilizer and improves soil fertility.
Amino acid nutritive solution is sprayed on leaves to help crops absorb a dozen kinds of essential amino acids and various microelements directly, producing decisive effects on the synthesis of protein and growth of crops.
Experts say that the nutritive liquid will help increase crop yield of grains by over 20 per cent and that of vegetables over 30 per cent.
The factory employees are now all out to produce more nutritive agents and supply them to farms before the sowing season.
